I think we'll win and I'll be there to do my part. That said, the last thing anyone saw from this team was the loss to a Kentucky team that we could literally have recruited a team of VolNation posters and beat. OF COURSE, they think they can beat us. They will learn otherwise on 8/31.

Hey RichRollin,
Nice to see your logical well-thout out posts on VN! I just had to quit reading through the garbage posts on GVXtra.

I know stats are just stats, and stars "mean nothing on the field", but seeing the # of talented players being brought in does show that this staff is definitely upgrading our player talent level top to bottom. I really hope this is the season that it shows on the field.

Please start posting more in the recruiting section too. Thanks :clap:

Yeah, I chime in from time to time here. Good to see you here my man.

Thought Volnation would find this entertaining. I live near Raleigh, Nc have for 2 years now. State fans in this area are very confident coming into this game they do not fear us. Actually they think we should be fearing them. Anytime I engage in a convo with a state fan they always say Tn who? we are no longer feared in the football world. We need to make a national showing this game. Go vols!

Eli is that you? Hope so. If not disregard. GOVOLS

Would love to see what their record had been if they played our schedule ... without their qb and best wr. Wouldn't have sniffed a bowl game

If you want to crown them, then crown their ass.

Sorry my inner-Denny Green came out.

As it turns out I'm going to be in Whittier, NC for the week of the game. So was thinking about driving down to Atlanta for the game. Does anyone have 2 tickets in sections 113-118 or 219-224 they want/ are willing to get rid of?

This year state is poised for a better bball season, still decidedly worse than both Duke and Carolina....but better. Last 5 yrs? UT better hands down. Wake up homme. Basement of the ACC. I live in charlotte, I know you get no respect in your own state. You guys are like the vanderbilt of NC.

UF 48 - UK 10....based on this logic are you willing to say that UT doesn't stand a chance against UF this year?

Personally, I think UT will steamroll NCSU. As someone mentioned earlier it could be similar to the '06 Cal game.

Would LOVE to hear the SEC...SEC... chant again. Good F'in times right there. :clapping:

Last year every Montana fan.. as in all 200... fully believed we would lose that game.

It is what it is..

I for one expect this game to play out similar to the Cincy game.

They will be a little overated, we will be a little underated; and it will show.

We actually had some very nice Montana fans on the board last year who knew they were going to lose. They basically viewed the game as a learning experience to help their team gear up to be competitive in the FCS (the got to the finals/semis in their tournament)

As for NC State. I'm not prepared to write them off yet. They are a team with real strength at QB, WR, and DBs. They led the nation in interceptions last year and it doesn't take many to turn a game around.

I think we win on the back of our defense and by exploiting their shallow/not great LB corp. If we can get good pressure on their QB, I think we can get the ball and just run it until they are forced to soften their backfield.

Anyway, I think the game for NC State depends on whether this guy has an impact:

He reminds me of Janzen Jackson diving like that.

I have spent the last week in raleigh and trying to find a state fan to talk to about the game was tough. . But the ones i did find think they will destroy us. I got to chat with several NCSU players as well and although they wouldnt talk on camera. . For obvious reasons. . They all seemed very confident and excited at this chance to beat an sec team. . . GO VOLS LETS CRUSH THEM BACK INTO REALITY
