Sure does feel that way. It helps that State's coach has a punchable face.

How? State actually beats teams.
If there is an ACC team that has done absolutely nothing athletically but yet still yaps their gums, then that school will be a match. I don't see one as Rutty is more like a punching bag then anything else.
As for NCS...more like Baylor. Always third in their own state.

They just started doing that this year.
I'm talking about a school that you and the rest of the conference hates. No one likes Rutgers...just like no one likes State.

Personally I have a soft spot for NCS due to Coach Case. As he was going to NCS from Indiana, he offered to take my father in law with him but he decided to go to Purdue instead. Look up the history of Everette Case who brought hoops to the ACC (Back then it was called the Southern Conference) from Indiana, great stuff, so coach being a close friend of the family... I just can't hate NCS.

No but I saw him with Dino and other coaches doing the coaches broadcast of the Clemson-Alabama title game. I don't remember much, because I fell asleep five seconds after Doeren started to talk.

That would suggest charisma is not all that important re building a winning team.

Yeah, that he's able to inspire anyone to do anything should be the focus of a documentary... He's a good coach and has them pointed in the right direction. But so is Dino, just a couple of years behind.

This is a weird thread. How you can compare a team that just bumped off FSU and UL to a team that has been outscored 224-0 against that conference's top competition? I'm also pretty sure that NC State does very little to move the emotion meter around here whereas Rutgers has a 200+ page dedicated to them. The do both wear red I suppose.

OP's not comparing the prominence or talent of the teams.
NC ST fans piss me off. I dont like tobacco road. Chubbs is a d bag. All signs point to Nc st being my least favorite ACC team.

I don't know. History of winning + NFL paychecks are plenty motivating for Pats players.
