She hasn't fired him BECAUSE she wants to win and realizing fire coaches on impulse won't get us anywhere. If she wanted immediate results, she would have hired a power 5 coordinator. We had two bad games against two really tough teams. As bad as things are, we probably still end up in a bowl this year. She will stay the course because shes a professional and not some finebaumish fan on the internet.10/15/2015 10:22:01 AM |

I am gonna wait and see how the rest of the season goes. I had us at 8-4 this year with the losses being Clemson, FSU, VT, and either Louisville or UNC. So my expectations are still viable but if we go and lose to Wake or Syracuse or some shit then I am gonna be disappointed. 10/15/2015 2:37:59 PM |

^i pretty much agree. i thought we'd go 1-1 between VT and UL. i also expected VT to be better than they are. but aside from FSU and Clemson, those were the most likely losses (other than @Wake because we always lose at Wake ). so it's very discouraging to lose like we did and play like shit, but it was always pretty possible that we'd drop both these games to open the ACC slate. 10/15/2015 4:53:26 PM |

The most discouraging thing to me is how much I feel like we've regressed since the end of last season. Louisville and VT aren't very good, and we lost to them primarily due to weaknesses that showed up to a lesser degree in those first 4 easy games.
Jacoby couldn't make throws downfield, and was short on medium throws, WR's aren't very good to begin with, secondary looks weak, DL can't get much pressure on opposing QBs, etc.
We can still have a good season 8-4 regular season record, but we don't have any room for error now with the losses to Louisville and VT. Plus, I'm not sure how confident I feel about winning even against anyone else if we play like we have the last 2 games. 10/15/2015 5:42:47 PM |

Fact check:
Quote : | "primarily due to weaknesses that showed up to a lesser degree in those first 4 easy games." |
We lost to Louisville because of fumbles which were not really a problem at all in the first 4 games.
Verdict: FALSE
"We could have won if..."
shouldn't be translated to
"We lost primarily due to..."
Especially considering we couldn't throw down field since Glennon graduated. Of course we could have done a lot of things better to win those games but that doesn't mean they are the primary reasons we lost. We are who we are.10/15/2015 6:17:33 PM |
dmspack oh we back 25537 Posts user info edit post |
^very fair assessment, imo. i'm not confident at all right now. i do think we'll find a way to win about 7 games this year. syracuse and wake are shit. we are playing like shit too, but we can and should still beat them both.
regardless...to me, jacoby is the most discouraging thing so far. he appears to have really regressed and he seems to be overthinking things. he's always held onto the ball too long in the pocket, leading to sacks and/or fumbles. but he seems to be playing tentative. like i said, maybe in another thread, it's ok to throw picks. sometimes you do have to take chances downfield. i'm not advocating the grip it n rip it approach of Harrison Beck...but be confident in your WRs to make a play. 10/15/2015 6:17:55 PM |

At the beginning of the season, if you told me that we would lose to UL and VT, I wouldn't have been upset. But since it is clear both teams suck, especially VT, those losses are very disappointing as we played like shit in both games with seemingly no ability to execute on offense.
Hopefully the 2+ week layoff will help the team come out strong against Wake as we need that win. Can't keep starting every ACC season 0-4. Hope DD can get to 5 ACC wins before he gets 20 losses 10/15/2015 8:41:19 PM |

We lost that game because they scored like 6 times in a row. You have to have a deep defense to run a fast paced offense that scores a lot of points. It puts your defense right back on the field and wears them down. Teams like Oregon and TCU now gave up a lot of points not because their defense was that bad, but because their possessions last like 5 minutes real time.
DD probably thought about this and decided not to do it with 75% of a full roster. 10/23/2015 1:41:20 PM |

Ill give him credit for doing something TOB couldn't and Chuck struggled to do by winning at Wake. Wish we could have stayed on the gas pedal today, but a win is a win. Best win on his resume is still UNC last year. The next three weeks could be 10/24/2015 8:19:23 PM |

Playing for the St. Petersburg bowl should be our motto. We can hang a sign in that fake cave thing that the players can bang on before taking the field, ala play like a champion today at ND.
"Play for 6 wins and a bid to St.Pete today".

Quote : | "The strides in the past season and a half have been big, and NC State has won nine of its last 12 games. But since the Wolfpack pulled their last big upset -- a 17-16 win over then 10th-ranked Florida State in 2012 -- they've been far from giant killers. They're just 3-12 against Power 5 teams that entered play with a winning record, and none of those three victories came against a foe that finished the year on the plus side of .500. Against teams ranked in the AP poll over that stretch, NC State is 0-4 with an average margin of defeat of 18 points." |

we were 7-5. heisman winners don't play on 7-5 teams.
but yes, i'm about 100% sure i won't live to see a better season than that by an NC State player, so we aren't going to have a heisman winner.10/30/2015 10:06:11 AM |
