Can Cam Ward return the Hurricanes to prominence? (2024 NCAAF thread)

[Bub]

But they scored 35 points!

The three Triangle teams scored 130 points yesterday. The two not named Duke allowed 129.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

So NC State, UNC, App State and ECU all got embarrassed yesterday. Is Duke really the best college football team in NC? Is that allowed?

I didn't watch but I'm guessing they were playing against 4th string guys just not getting hurt and coasting through what was already a massive blowout

I know I saw Clemson’s third string QB out there at one point.

I mean at this point if you throw in the Panthers, you've got a case to say that North Carolina in general should quit football.

I don't follow high school football but I imagine if you had them compete against schools from other states, they'd all lose

On defense.

I think I read somewhere that NC is in the Top 5 states for players in the NHL

Where did you read that....High Times?

 

[chaz4hockey]

lol, Mack Brown's press conference this morning is being lampooned nationally.

I gather he misspoke re: leaving.

 

[Svechhammer]

f*** the ACC

Bunch of Miami cock sucking motherf***ers. Such blatant horseshit rigging at the end of that game to gift them a win

 

[A Star is Burns]

As a Hokies fan, am I certain that was a catch? No. Did I see enough to overturn the call on the field no matter what it had been? No. Total bullshit.

Granted, the horrific clock management in the two minute drive put them in position to need a miracle and hope to not get robbed. I love a lot about what Pry tried to do with this program but man is it getting tough to support him.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Also, you'd think indisputable evidence should be apparent faster than that long ass replay.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

VT gave the game away. They shouldn’t have left it in the refs hands who would easily protect a top team in an irrelevant conference

 

[NotOpie]

I saw multiple replays and photos. It was clearly an incompletion; the ball never was completely under control. But none of that mattered as soon as the Miami player touched the ball while lying out of bounds. That immediately ends the play. And hey, I'd have loved to see the upset, but the refs didn't do anything but cause a needless delay in the final outcome.

Not exactly the level it once was, but it is nice to see the conference rise from the dead a bit

Man that Oregon state logo kinda sucks. It’s hard to tell what it is at that size and it’s not at all distinctive. Should go back to one of the first two OG Benny the Beaver logos

 

[HisIceness]

I like the one from 2006-13. The one now looks like some kind of video game mouse character.

 

[mikeyfan]

This was clearly a "rating" decision by the replay officials. would they allow thier clear cut conference favorite team get upset and drop from the 5 slot in the ratings by being upset? Or would they overturn the call on the field to preserve those. national rankings for the conference?

The chose to preserve the rankings.

There was not enough evidence on the replay to overturn the call of a catch. And if. the officials had ruled it. was incomplete, I would have said there was no evidence to overturn the call of incomplete.

Understated yet strangely elegant. (you had to know someone was going to sink to this level)

I think Auburn hired the wrong coach again

 

[HisIceness]

28-0 Alabama.

How old is their coach again?

They have for some time.

28-0 Alabama.

UGA is losing in every facet of the game. Beck has been exposed. Living in UGA territory and seeing all the games, I haven’t understood the hype.

I really liked that hire for Bama though

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Beck 4 TOs. Dude can’t throw a deep ball without under throwing a guy, cost Uga again against Bama
