Took off too early


Oct 17, 2016, 4:34 PM

Anybody else think the reason we played so crappy on Saturday was players didn't take NC State seriously? They were looking at an easy win and then a week off and did not properly prepare.

Looked to me like their heads were already off to the bye week.

No. I didn't see any sleep walking or lack of effort from

the team. State played well and we turned the ball over 4 times (5 if you want to count getting stopped at the 1).

Me either.

The fumbles were more fate and too much effort for diminishing returns than lackadaisical performances.

CDS said that the Wed before the game was their best day of practice.

We must not practice stripping the ball.***

HOLD ON TO THE #### BALL!!!!!

The reason it looked crappy was from turnovers-

Take away the 4 turn overs and we dominated that game.

Our O looked fine. Our D only gave up 10 points but did not look as intense as usual I will say. I will take 10 points given up all day though. Our O should have had the game in control

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agreed even though they didn't give up points


Oct 17, 2016, 4:49 PM

they got pushed around more than they should have. I know the turnovers didn't help but the pass rush was non existent, and tackling was pretty bad at times. Hope they were just tired

I've found over the years that as the fans go, usually

so goes most everyone else...including the team.

My impression the week prior was most believed the game would be a cakewalk for us, resulting in a lack of focus. You could see it here on TNet, and I witnessed the same from friends in my area.

Hence, why I believe it important to take one game at a time, treating every opponent as an Alabama...and go for the jugular.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Uumm no, I didn't see that at all


Oct 17, 2016, 6:04 PM

We dominate the game without the turnovers, even with NCS playing over their heads.
