Great game. Still a LOT if places to get better. OL didnt have a great game, overall blocking was ok. Good game running, thought Sampson did a lot of it.

WR's need to step up and make plays.

Again, being critical after beating a ranked team by fiddy is tough. But with Arkansas, Flarduh, Georgia, and Bama - 'easy schedule'. - we have an Opp we havent had in a long time. But will have to play better.

It blows my mind that we have the perception our offense "wasn't clicking"...

We just hung 44 points and 450 on a pretty fundamentally good defense...those guys did not blow coverages, they were not missing tackles, or getting out of position en masse...they were not sloppy at all..they played good disciplined defense and stayed with their gameplan until the bitter end.

And yet we shoved 44 and 450 down their throats...think about that.

I was thinking earlier about this, and I posted the thought in the FT thread earlier...I think our offense really messes with our perceptions.

And, the offense ran the bal up the middle with second and third team players.

I don't know if they are as good as folks want them to be, but I don't think they are a terrible team. Good solid defense but their offense has yet to reveal if it is any good or just meh. WCU could have been an off day for them and our defense may just be really good. I hope they win out so out drumming of them looks even more dominant than it did last night.

How weird is it that if NC State wins out they’ll be one of the top 4 in the playoff?

Uly, that’s not an indictment on the performance. It’s recognition we pretty much can score on accident.

I don't like where this is going..where we as a collective fanbase start bitching that a brutal beat down inflicted by our offense is somehow..."less".."not good enough".."mediocre"..etc etc etc because it wasn't "pretty" enough.

And make no mistake...that was absolutely a BRUTAL beatdown of a fundamentally sound, disciplined, solid defense.

We are 3 games removed from the Milton era, which truly was mediocre...we are becoming spoiled and pissy already.

Evidently though, several of you guys see it as innocent semantics...it rubs me the wrong way.

You see it how you see it...I see what I see.

I said what I said already..and I stand by it....I don't like where this is going.

I don't remember you saying we played mediocre offensively...so I am not talking about you. There are people saying that...quite a few...and that is not just wrong, it is stupid in my opinion.
