we might get to go to the Super Bowl.

12/2/2008 4:10:41 PM

That will guarantee the loser of the title game to Music City:

As we stand now:
Orange - VT/BC
Peach - GT
Gator - Clemson (Had Clemson lost vs. SC, I honestly think we would have landed here, and could have had another parade... fuckin spurrier)
Tangarine Champs Whatever the fuck it is now - FSU
Car Care - UNC
Music City - VT/BC (By rule)

Which leaves Boise, SF, and Washington
If Boise or SF chooses Miami (which probably one of them will) then it leaves either Wake (who cant play in Washington bc of rematch) and UMD (whom said they wont play bc of exams)... then one of those schools most likely gets left out, and we go to Washington....

Before you rehash the whole 7 vs. 6 win thing... The NCAA will make an exception on that rule for Wake or Maryland

Thus, my new projection either puts Boise and SF getting stuck with Wake Forest which you know they dont want... or the most likely that Wake Forest gets left for at-large and we go to Washington... I think this is the most likely possibility right now.

12/2/2008 4:13:41 PM

But that won't happen...have you read any recent articles....

We cannot be taken in one of the 9 tie-in bowls the ACC has.

12/2/2008 4:15:37 PM

If we get an at-large bid the Texas Bowl at Reliant Stadium would be pretty sweet.

12/2/2008 4:16:12 PM

waaa injuries, waaa

12/2/2008 4:16:37 PM

^^^^ did you even read what i wrote.... the NCAA would make an exception if all this happens, bc it conflicts with exams for Maryland and Wake can't be rematched

[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 4:18 PM. Reason : The rematch rule is just as important as the 7-5, 6-6 rule]

12/2/2008 4:17:30 PM

I still like our Rose Bowl chances

12/2/2008 4:18:29 PM

^^what honestly tells u that we wouldnt.....

all the reasons they cited for taking clemson could apply to our program

Excitment over the program, Travel well, etc.

We wouldn't had deserved it, Clemson doesnt either, but it doesnt take much intellect to see that we would have been a very good candidate for that bowl if Clemson was not eligible

12/2/2008 4:20:04 PM

^ plus, they had only one more win than us so we could have been going back to Gator if we had just won one more game

"We cannot be taken in one of the 9 tie-in bowls the ACC has. "

yes, we can

we are still not out of the running.

the Tire bowl really really really wanted the Pack there but they have to settle for the blue turds

I don't think anyone wanted the tarholes, they barely show up for their home games, much less travel for a game

12/2/2008 4:22:19 PM

lets be honest .... if we do infact get a bowl in Detroit for Christmas ... I have a sinking feeling our "traveling fanbase" is going to diminish DRASTICALLY.

12/2/2008 4:29:38 PM

I sure as fuck won't be going to Detroit. I'm trying not to get shot for the holidays.

12/2/2008 4:30:48 PM

yeah, State fans won't travel well to Detroit at all. DC is probably our best travelling option, but we'd probably do OK taking people to Birmingham.

WHY WOULD THEY???

when Ga. Tech, Florida State, Va. Tech/BC loser, Clemson would be available??????




oh im sorry, you must have forgotten STATE WENT 6-6!!

12/2/2008 4:32:52 PM

^you fucking moron, why dont you fuckin read something before you go against it you dumb bastard

Jesus Christ... I said if Clemson lost last week we would have had a shot... Everyone expects VT to win , and no one wants BC

You damn right. And one of those games is where we straight up butt fucked the heels, 41-10. I hope you brought your kneepads son.

"Clemson would be available??????"

you do realize the guy said "IF" clemson lost

which means clemson would have been 6-6 with 2 wins over FCS teams

which means they wouldn't have been bowl eligible

which means no, clemson would not be available

stupid fuck

[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 4:54 PM. Reason : not that i think we would have had the Gator, but damn you can't even read.]

How the Pack can go to the Eagle Bank Bowl (from SFN w/ACCnow):

http://www.statefansnation.com/index.php/archives/2008/12/02/sfn-bowl-projections/

Quote :

"The following are the two key variables for you to keep monitor that must converge in order for NC State to earn an invite to DC to play Navy: (1) The Champs Bowl needs to select Florida State over UNC which would push UNC to the Meineke Bowl in Charlotte. If the Champs chooses UNC-CH, then the Meineke will probably pick Maryland to pair with West Virginia for a renewal of a strong regional rivalry that would insure a sellout. Taking Maryland off the board would create a situation where the final three bowls could be filled in a manner that excludes NC State. (2) The Emerald Bowl needs to choose Miami over Wake Forest in an attempt to draw television interest in a game that won’t be able to attract a large traveling contingent from either program leaving two teams that cannot/will not play in the Eagle Bowl - Wake because they played Navy in the regular season and Maryland because they have pulled themselves from consideration due to exams."

Quote :

"JP Giglio of the N&O’s ACCNow has a fantastic piece up on their blog that is good news for NC State getting to Washington. Giglio has sources that indicate the first key domino in the equation is happening — Champs to choose FSU. This would create and obvious situation where UNC-CH goes to Charlotte and pushes Maryland, Miami & Wake Forest for the ACC’s final three slots. As we previously stated, the next variable that would have to fall into place for the Wolfpack is for the Emerald Bowl - who had Maryland last year - to pass over Wake Forest and choose Miami."

c'mon Emerald Bowl.... pick Miami!!

12/2/2008 5:24:24 PM

Clemson was 6-5. That second 1-AA win doesn't count.

12/2/2008 5:29:23 PM

I've read that Boise is looking to get out of their ACC tie-in so they can get Ball State to play Boise State in a matchup of two undefeateds

Not sure how that would effect us, if at all

12/2/2008 5:35:05 PM

i don't think they can do that..

12/2/2008 5:37:20 PM

They can do whatever they liiiikkkkeeee

As long as all parties agree

12/2/2008 5:39:43 PM

I'm sure there would be a concession to put an ACC team elsewhere. The ACC won't give up money just so the world can see Boise vs Balls on a blue field.

12/2/2008 5:41:16 PM

Well yeah

The MAC would give up one of their other bowl ties to the ACC to make it work

12/2/2008 5:45:47 PM

I would love for state to come to clt but it won't happen. I hope unc comes cause I will go and pull for whoever is playing them

12/2/2008 8:07:25 PM

Report: UNC to Charlotte

12/2/2008 8:18:04 PM

Quote :

"^^^what im saying is that i dont think it would have made a difference if we had guys injured or not we were gettin taken out to the damn woodshed"

While I agree with most of what you said, that is false. We lost 3 close games to ACC opponents, all 3 of which came down to the last 2 minutes....2 of which the score was tied.

I have to think that with Nate Irving alone we win 1 of those games, and with Clem Johnson playing the whole season we win the other one as well.

Like I say, for me its not an excuse, but a talking point. I'm fine with 6-6 but looking at the injuries makes next season look kind of exciting.


(I dont care about USF....or Clemson/USC either. Those are the only 3 games we had no shot in)

[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 8:24 PM. Reason : ]

12/2/2008 8:22:00 PM

UNC goes 8-4 (4-4) and go to Charlotte. We go 6-5 (3-5) and go to Charlotte (yeah I know they did the same thing the year before; that could have been us at the 04 Tire Bowl had the asshole refs not taken away TA's touchdown! )

12/2/2008 8:25:18 PM

who cares...that is in the past.

12/2/2008 8:27:31 PM

we were in the game against SC until halftime

12/2/2008 8:27:59 PM

heh

12/2/2008 8:28:20 PM

Some rumors flying around that Wake has accepted the Motor City bowl.... this makes no sense to me and is probably not true... but nonetheless, it is rumored... would def send us to DC if true... I just cant fathom y Detroit would rather have Wake than us?

The consensus is still Independence or Papajohns (apparently Independence wants us bad)

They should really get Notre Dame and Maryland together.

Have a sumo match for the halftime show.

12/3/2008 8:40:22 AM

Lets throw in kansas and make it a triple threat.

12/3/2008 8:41:08 AM

I am not a tarheel troll.

I went to State. I love State. I know that State has really turned it on in their last 4 games and have been playing quiet well the last 6 or 7 games.

But I am not a delusional homer, what I am saying is 6-6 should not get to go to a bowl game. I know it is just the way it is and I should enjoy it.

What if we would have played that way all year? When is TOB going to put together a full season??

when these things happen then I believe we will DESERVE to go to a good bowl, I just dont think we deserve it this year

12/3/2008 8:46:49 AM

^It's not really fair asking "When is TOB going to put together a whole season" considering we had a redshirt freshman QB starting (who then got knocked out for two games) combined with lots of injuries. Assuming a normal amount of injuries for next year (maybe just 1/4 of our starters this time instead of 1/2), I believe we will have a very good football team. TOB's tenure at NCSU looks like a better version of his start at BC (5-7 and 6-6 in his first two years at NCSU and 4-7 both of his first two years at BC).
