I am concerned about the game tomorrow.

I just went and watched all of NC Stars games for 2018 and while I think we are more talented, I was extremely impressed with the level of intensity that they played with. It seemed like they really wanted the wins.
While I think we will win if we play our game, I haven't seen that level of intensity from our Tigers since we won the national championship.
In 2017 and so far in 2018 everyone has whined about qb, wr, ol, and cb play. People have suggested all sorts of reasons for the drop off and I don't think it is talent or scheme, but determination. The drive and focus is what carried us past Ohio State and Alabama even though they have been more talented at the time. We simply play with more intensity and we're hungry for the win.
I see that same hunger in NC State right now and not in our Tigers. While I hope and believe we will win, I am concerned it is going to be a nail bitter because they are bringing the same hunger we had two years ago with them. We need to get that back.

One thing I like about this game is that NC State has played nobody. BC might have been a ggod game but their starting QB was out.

Like I really care. I don't post much but I am a long time fan and lurker. This just happens to be the first time I had something to contribute in a while.

Agreed. We have far superior talent, superior coaching, and home field advantage. This is shaping up to be a blowout by Clemson.

The O-line isn't dominate

This has been a problem for years and we all know it. Part of this may be recruiting but I blame Robbie Caldwell. I don't think he demands the necessary toughness.

My biggest concern, is if we have enough towels. I do not think the laptop crying towel thieves will beat the tigers. I will just about guarantee they will be crying about some perceived wrong though. The 2 teams that cry the most when we play the are NC State, and the dirt peckers in Cootlumbia.

Idk about NCST but I absolutely agree the Tigers are just coasting by. They will need to get that hunger back if they are to win the NC. We seen the swagger back last game but it was WF. I think we will see a fired up bunch of Tigers this week, if not something is wrong.

Tough opponent if we handle well, means we go very far this year. TL is looking great and plus his week off and fishing trip back home tells me he's going to be awesome this game. He has had time to reflect, adjust and prepare. Also he knows they will be coming after him and will be prepared.

that Dabo will let up and not hang 70 on them.
We got this one by at least 2 TDs. Nancy hasn't seen what she'll see Saturday.

This team has more that we give them credit for! With all the distractions and issue the week of Syracuse, we could have easily ‘coasted’ to a loss. But this team showed grit and desire! They shut Syracuse offense down and shoved it down their throat to win the game. They did not give up. That is not coasting!

You are misunderstanding me my friend. (or I may be misunderstanding you). I want a pedal to the metal BLOWOUT of NC State tomorrow. That's what I'm saying. No mercy!

We'll win because (say it in a whisper) we're the better team. All the imagined intangibles don't measure up.

I guess you have to play with intensity to avoid losing to the mighty JMU Dukes and the powerhouse that is Boston College. Ye of little faith
