doesn't the band have a full copy of the fight song and red & white songs on a website somewhere?

8/29/2007 10:31:56 PM

what I was told is that they made a Cave infront of the cover with the block S, It's some sort of foam thing creating a true tunnel. Also, the entire inside of the tunnel is blacked out... and all the lights in the tunnel are red. Smoke is still white....


also the endzone's will be painted slightly different, no huge white block, just lettering, and the out of bounds lines are going to be solid white....

But that's just what I was told...........So we'll see how actually it turns out.

8/29/2007 10:33:09 PM

Ah, I actually liked the way the field was, with the sidelines being red up to the 25 yard line and white in between the 25s, as well as the red letters in a white block.

8/29/2007 10:38:03 PM

^ yes and ^4 yes

its exactly that URL, I don't know what the problem is

they probably disabled external linking

[Edited on August 29, 2007 at 10:45 PM. Reason : ]

yea but this is Tom O'brien's stadium now.... everything is his.... there's alot of little details that most of you all will never notice.



Also, we're going to be wearing a black bar on our uniform... It's in honor/remembrance of the Virginia Tech shootings.... Apparently all the teams in the ACC are doing it.

Quote :

"Weaver also said each of Virginia Tech's 21 athletic teams will wear a patch with the Virginia Tech logo and a ribbon this season. Each of the teams at the ACC's other 11 schools will wear a black bar on their uniforms."

8/29/2007 10:51:54 PM

Then go to espn 360 look to the right hand side there is a scroll down window for out of network providers. Scroll down to verizion and your in. Hope this helps. It worked for me. Go wolfpack!!!"

Appears to work for me, but I know ESPN360 has some free content that doesnt check your ISP, so I cant be sure. There are live games tonight so that will be the real test. Hopefully downloading or capturing will not be an issue.

8/30/2007 8:10:13 AM

damn, just hearing the fight song gave me chills

8/30/2007 9:41:19 AM

8/30/2007 12:04:52 PM

2 Days til tailgating time.

8/30/2007 12:31:57 PM

so if i don't have a parking pass, where should i park? i don't mind paying a few $ if that means i'll be closer to the stadium/tailgating

8/30/2007 12:53:43 PM

either inside the fairground fence / not the lot
the lot behind the vet school
or down trinity past the stadium at the office buildings and Cardinal Gibbons

8/30/2007 1:16:48 PM

i might go scope it out today...is cardinal gibbons open/free?

8/30/2007 1:30:21 PM

Anyone know anything about the rumor that the tunnel under the Murphy Center is being redone to look like a cave?????

8/30/2007 1:47:48 PM

^^ for cardinal gibbons you need a parking pass

8/30/2007 1:48:31 PM

"You won't find Miami's Francesco Zampogna or North Carolina State's Steven Hauschka in their respective schools' media guides, but you'll find both kickers atop their teams' depth charts this week. ... Hauschka arrived from Middlebury College in Vermont this summer under the NCAA's graduate transfer rule after the Wolfpack's media guide went to press. Hauschka is a former soccer player who didn't start playing football until his sophomore year at Middlebury. He has been nicknamed "The Polish Rifle" by Wolfpack coach Tom O'Brien, even though the neuroscience major isn't Polish."

"The Polish Rifle"

Any kicker's nickname that has "rifle" in it sounds good to me!

8/30/2007 2:54:31 PM

8/30/2007 4:06:47 PM

8/30/2007 4:17:19 PM

Keep fighting for State

8/30/2007 4:33:19 PM

^^^^Saying shit like that will get your ass kicked, kidding or not.

8/30/2007 7:01:28 PM

Shout aloud to the men who will play the game to win
We're behind you, keep fighting for State---
Hold that line, hold 'em fast,
We'll reach victory at last
We're behind you, keep fighting for State---
Rise up to the fray and let your colors wave,
Shout out for dear old N.C. State;--GO STATE!
And where-e'er we go,
we'll let the whole world know,
We're behind you, keep fighting for State.

8/30/2007 10:29:22 PM

better late than never

just make sure you make it to the game cognitives intact

8/30/2007 11:07:23 PM

the band has a whole new routine for coming on the field
its pretty sick
we have a lot of new songs as well

"schools out" wont be played this year and we are trying to limit how many times we play apache (everyone thinks its being overplayed some games)

our first show is a classic rock show with black dog, kashmere, dirty deeds done dirt cheap, and rock and roll (zeppelin)

its also the largest band ever at nc state with close to 250 people so we'll definitely be fucking loud

8/31/2007 1:38:34 AM

how bout dont play apache ever
