NC State vs Western Carolina Thursday at 7PM

[Savannahbayvol]

won't know much after that. Other opponent games this week, only 3 that we can get some indication of possible strengths and/or weakness.

UGA-Klempson in Atlanta, same time as our UTC game. I say Dawgs by 2 TDs.

Miami-Florida 3:30, for some reason I think the Gators might be the Mizzou of 2024. Will take them by a FG in an upset

VT-Vandy, damn same time as us. The Hokies by at least 3 TDs

Others:

Kent State at Pitt -noon

EKU at MSU 6

WK at Alabama 7, bad day for the Kentucky directional teams

Southern Miss at UK- 7:45, used to this might be a game but USM fallen on hard times

UTEP- Nebraska 3:30

Arkansas Pine Bluff at Arky- 7:30

Pretty big SEC-ACC match-ups for the first week.

We can somewhat compare results of our game vs Chatt and their game vs WC. Both teams are predicted to challenge for the Southern conference championship.

Doesn’t help the Wolfpack strength of schedule, nor The Vols’. Go Wolfpack in this one.

Doesn’t help the Wolfpack strength of schedule, nor The Vols’. Go Wolfpack in this one.

I want State to win, but I want them to have a lot of questions and look really sloppy. I want their OLine to look suspect.

 

[OrangeVolMan]

Don’t forget Notre Dame @ TX AM 7:30
Or on Sunday USC @ LSU 7:30

Oklahoma plays Temple Friday.

 

[volroadwarrior]

Pulling for all top 15 teams to lose except Vols. That's where I will be until playoff selections are made.

 

[VolBricks]

Per my usual I will be pulling for the Vols and whoever is playing the Gators.

 

[Raleigh-Vol]

Definitely want to watch to see if they struggle at all and not necessarily on the scoreboard but if they execute smooth, how they do with penalties, how does McCall look. I know wolfpack will win and should not be close at the end.

You're doing it wrong. It's in our best interest for all of our opponents to win as much as possible, outside of playing us.

 

[Vfl2407]

I love to “scout” upcoming competition by watching upcoming opponents on tv with a super duper binoculars to try to steal their signs…ala Michigan.

 

[Grappler]

I'll be rooting for Western Carolina to pull off an upset,

As a Western Carolina alumni.... I concur

 

[Hulavol]

Them boys from Cullowhee ain’t gonna go down without a hell of a fight…. The big city state capitol fellas gonna be bruised up after this.

well good

 

[WoodsmanVol]

They'll try. For two quarters, they will play out of their freaking minds. Unfortunately, towards the last minutes of second quarter, NCST will start to bully them. It gets worse from there. But the Lynx or Cougar, whatever a Catamount is, will put up a fight and have a moment here and there. Being proud and all. But in the end, they get declawed.

 

[TheVolunteer002]

It'll be interesting to see what they have. Everybody's high on them contending for the ACC this year, but they shouldn't be able to hang with us late imo. Beat who you're supposed to beat and we'll wind up where we want to be this year.

For some reason, I just heard leonard's losers while reading this.

 

[adam.vol]

We probably can’t tell a whole lot from the game other than how quickly NC State’s QB operates. If he’s making quick check downs and throwing the ball on the money, we’ll know that this is going to be a tough matchup.

My dad loved when they would play his prediction on the radio

He hated Ga Tech; the Humble Bumbles and the Insects from the Institute!

I dunno... the worse they play Thursday the harder they'll work--with the benefit of two extra practice days--to be ready for Tennessee.

I'd rather they play like a well-oiled, world beatin' mo-chine Thursday night, and show up in Charlotte cocky as heck!

 

[BruisedOrange]

Pulling for all top 14 teams to lose except Vols.

After consulting a calculator, fyp.

Yep, we wanna beat winners.
