NC State - What Factors Led to loss last year?

I think 3 turnovers in the red zone by us*****

Turnovers, No Sammy, Ellington not 100%, Boyd fat.***

Heads bloated by press clippings and Sammyless. Basically

Dabo didn't have the boys ready to play due to over-confidence.

Playing on the road
No Sammy
Turnovers
Bad Tackling
No pass protection
Getting behind early.

We got punched by their team and fans like UGA got punched

uh - weren't we missing Sammy, and maybe Ellington? That's HUGE.

This year we have better talent, and most are healthy. I hope NCSU thinks it's going to be easy.

Plus - we're at HOME this year. Big difference.

The same thing that led to all of our other losses last year.

We make a few mistakes. Get down by a score or two. We abandon the running game. Boyd presses and makes bad decisions, has 3 and outs, and turns the ball over. Opposing defense knows we're going to abandon the running game and they pin their ears back to get to Boyd. And our defense isn't good enough to make up for the lost field position/momentum. And our tempo goes out the window.

The playcalling, O-line play, and TB need to be on their game for us to win. Run the football. Get Boyd acclimated early and get the high throws out of his system, and just kick ###.

They had more points at the end of the game.***

All those NCSU points didn't help.


Nov 12, 2012, 1:44 PM

This wasn't a constructive response, was it?

Hmmm...

Turnovers
No Sammy
No running game (was AE hurt?)

punt return shortly after that allowed them to start 3 scoring drives inside our 20.

Aside from the above, we had already clinched the division


Nov 12, 2012, 3:16 PM

and just weren't focused, while I believe they were attempting to get bowl eligible. Throw in the lack of Sammy on offense, which was a bigger deal last year than this year, and all the turnovers, that's how it happened.

This year will be different.

Trick plays, abandoning the run, not enough TE***

Fans were not loud enough and there seemed to be a lack of focus....

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Not showing up is the main reason


Nov 12, 2012, 5:03 PM

Also giving them the ball inside our 20 3 times doesn't help

Phillip Price being out, and Kevin Steele as our Dcoord***
