Syracuse opens -5 vs NC State on saturday

that means they think we can score at least 1 td.. they must know something

They've seen NC State's D.

They are like a neutered Maryland. We should be favored.
 
Remember how many yards on the ground we racked up on them last year? Their run D is just as bad this year. If we don't run the ball down their throats for 4 quarters I won't be happy, no need to get too tricky against that defense. they are 4-4 because their toughest OOC game(on paper) was against USF. Give them our OOC and give us theirs, we are 5-3 and they are 2-6. We should be favored and we better beat these stiffs!
 
NC State 4-4 (0-4)


Georgia Southern (W) 24-23

Old Dominion (W) 46-34

At South Florida (W) 49-17

Presbyterian (W) 42-0

Florida State (L) 56-41

At Clemson (L) 41-0

Boston College (L) 30-14

At Louisville (L) 30-18
 
Moneyline finally released. SU -167 equates to 62% chance of us winning.
 
Best to plan on scoring more than 20 - NCST put up 41 on FSU.

Lately, for one home game a year, NC State plays out of their minds. This year was FSU, last year was Clemson, and the year before was FSU again.

if we don't score 20 points vs that defense id be surprised

7 field goals easy.
 
How can we be cocky about scoring against anybody, especially tds... Unless I see it with my own eyes I don't know for sure our offense could score a td against 11 tackling dummies... Also, their qb is a legit running threat, so show me we can contain a mobile qb... God knows we are going to see solid mobile qbs from here on out...
 
nc st is really just about the games the QB scrambles and makes plays.. he did it for 4 drives against FSU and then they went on about a 50-10 run. if we contain his running we will be fine. and its good practice for BC and now it seems Pitt is trying to get their QB killed running as well.

Because we've proven we can rip up bad teams offensively (Wake, CMU). And we did contain Maryland's QB and Golson.
 
Jeff Sagarin ratings make us 4.5 favorites at the Dome.

So if we get our standard 2 defensive tds we can reach 30 points? Great... Why would Golson bother scrambling when we are letting him practically break records for consecutive passes...

You're right. Silly me for looking at a positive. Would it make you happier if I just posted something more negative?
