NC State Post Game Thread

Fair enough, yeah. I guess the important thing is we've got to stop putting ourselves in that position to begin with, choosing between a kicking unit and a OC who are both liable to do something more likely to produce a meme than points. And that's (hopefully) just for the rest of this year. I'd like to think next year our kicking situation won't be such a horror show and our OC.. I dunno. I don't know anything about what is likely or not w/r/t staff changes and I dislike calling for heads.

I don't think we see staff changes for at least another year; but I wonder sometimes if we pay our OL coach to be a OC in waiting.
 
GT seemed to win the second half, and that's a good sign. It means S&C and depth development compare well to the opponent. I agree that the penalties are unacceptable, but I see a lot more enthusiasm in this program--a whole lot--than I saw two years ago. Maybe that's a low benchmark, but the talent is improving, the players have bought in, and I think the program is on its way up, if not as rapidly as fans always want. Collins needs to haunt the portal for a couple of the missing pieces this off-season.

6-15. Say whatever you need to say to rationalize it, I don't care. The numbers don't lie.

The fact that use a win / loss record during a rebuild to prove something let's me know that you don't really understand the situation. Does there need to be a major uptick next year? I would say definitely yes but dude, thinking we would even be a .500 team this year is a stretch. It's going to take some time but I do think this will be the last "painful" year. Tech football is going to start to be really fun again soon to all you cry babies out there. The "tech football isn't fun anymore crowd" is the most ignorant pathetic bulldog troll öööö my ears have ever heard.

I don't think CGC is going anywhere regardless of what happens next year. The length of the contract suggested this was a long-term transformation.

But yeah, if we aren't bowling next year, the seat will be hot in 2022.

And 2022, if I’m not mistaken, starts Clemson on Labor Day, FCS, UCF, Ole Miss. lol.

My love/hate with Sims is he’ll thread the needle in tight coverage like you described and give you a wow moment, but then he’ll miss a completely wide open receiver the next play. Where I see some issues is we‘ll run read option plays which takes a second or so to read and then he’ll try to read the routes downfield which often take longer then 3 or 4 seconds to develop and the pressure gets to him. If he matures to a point where he can deliver the ball quicker the line will all of a sudden look way better. Patenuade could help by calling plays to gets the ball out quickly as well.

This is spot on. I hope he figures it out this off-season. But as of now there has been no improvement during the season and what keeps running through my head is the miami qb fiasco of the last 6 years. Flashes of genius without the upside increase. Here's to hoping.
 
Sims is young with super upside. I thought as usual the officiating sucked and took us out of the game in the first half. We had two crucial hold calls on us that were drive killing calls. I'm not saying we didn't hold but I find it curious that they were only seeing the holds our offense committed. I witnessed tons of holds by NCState but no flags coming out. All you have to do is look at the final stats for penalty yards and that tells you all you need to know why we lost this game.

Amazing that pretty much the only cognitive comment in 8 pages is made by a dawg fan.
 
My opinion is we win the game if we were at full strength.
 
On GT's first drive of the second half, the refs should have called for a review of Sims run that was spotted at the 1. I believe replay would have shown he scored. Then we get two movement penalties and Jeff Sims misses a wide open Adonicus Sanders in the EZ. What could have been,oh well maybe we get some breaks going our way next year but Geoff is going to have to learn how to work the officials becaue he's not getting the respect of the ACC crews currently.

Go ahead and add my name to that list. All 4 of the QBs you used as prime examples of why Sims’ accuracy can’t improve won Heisman trophies. 2 won NFL MVP awards.

All of them would easily be the most successful QB in GT history, so I’m gonna go ahead and say you’re either trolling or an idiot.

The guy is obviously a troll, and yet you all still respond to them...
