I'd say FSU has the edge.
10/10/2010 2:55:21 PM
quit talking about the fucking FSU game. we will have close to 2 weeks to talk about it after we hopefully get the W against ecu.
10/10/2010 3:18:10 PM
Haha, I don't think many people care about the ECU game dude. The FSU game is easily the biggest game we've had in what, 6+ years? FSU is the team to beat in the ACC and a loss to them essentially puts us three games back in the division (b/c of the tiebreaker).
10/10/2010 3:26:34 PM
my point is i don't want anyone over looking the ecu game. we could get fucked hard playing away from home against an offense that certainly produces.while the FSU game should have massive implications, it's the biggest game since the VT game last week.

Overlooking an in-state team is not good. Especially when they really want to beat you. Go Pack!

It doesn't matter if the fans overlook ECU, only if the players are overlooking them

couldn't at all have to do with the fact they are trying to sell you something could it?

Opening line NC State -6.5. There will be a lot of stressed Wolfpack fans if this game is that close.
10/10/2010 4:34:52 PM
The people who don't think this isn't their biggest game didn't grow up in a town where everyone went to ecu.
10/10/2010 4:38:47 PM
Being from Greenville, and currently have 2 siblings who attend ECU, yeah pretty much all of Greenville will be trying to squeeze in Dowdy Ficklen on Saturday. And yes ECU students care about this game ALOT more then the conference USA championship...dont know why-but yeah we cant afford to overlook anyone!

i'd have to agree that this is ecu fan's game of the year. ask a random ecu alum, not a diehard football fan but just a random girl that went to ecu - 9/10 they'd know that ecu and ncsu play this year and the game is at ecu. ask that same person to name the ecu coach or name two other conference usa teams and they probably wouldn't be able to do it.

Should be an easy win...ECU is bad. However, this is a classic trap game with FSU on the horizon and ECU being jacked up to play us...As long as we don't look ahead to FSU, which I don't think will be a problem, we should cruise. Pack 45ECU 20[Edited on October 10, 2010 at 5:19 PM. Reason : a]
10/10/2010 5:18:28 PM
I feel like it will be hard to overlook ECU since we have a bye week after this game (I know the FSU game is on Thursday).
10/10/2010 5:29:21 PM
hahaha I know two of the girls postedone is pretty innocent and the other...from first hand experience...is not! lolthat said, ECUs defense is TERRIBLE. Wilson should light up their DBs for 4 tds passing and one running. I say its 52-20

My sister is getting married at 2pm. Why do people schedule weddings during football season??? And we have to be at the church for pictures at 11am. So, I will essentially see none of it. AND my bridesmaid dress would almost pass as a deeper shade of ECU purple. However, my cousin is an ECU student, and decided to skip the wedding for the game. Her Mom, my Aunt (huge ECU fan) got really upset at her for skipping out on the wedding, and wished upon her "I hope NC State kicks ECU's ass, and they are beat so bad that you're sick from it, and you leave the stadium crying, and it's on the TV that you're crying and sick from losing so badly at home." /random story.

Yes, but also 45. She is completely awesome though.

State opened as a 7 point favorite on Cris and moved a .5 point our way just seconds after it was posted

I love this situation.
10/10/2010 7:32:31 PM
Such a pain to have to play ecu now. Conference football was just starting to heat up! I am unable to watch the game due to a wedding as well , but luckily this is the least interesting game on our schedule. UCF was more intriguing because it was early in the year and i didn't really know what kind of team we had. (same reasoning with wcu).
10/10/2010 7:49:19 PM
Ask any ECU student its sad but this is their biggest game of the year

10/10/2010 9:02:47 PM
we will win this game easily. it will not be interesting. it will have no impact on our season since we ruined whatever tiny chance we had at doing anything bigger than the shitty acc by losing to shitty virginia tech.
10/10/2010 9:12:50 PM
ECU is one of our biggest rivals stop saying you wish we didnt play them that makes us sound scared and pathetic. What would you rather play Central Florida or Uconn or some other boring school? How about a school we can't beat like an SEC school. Just quit it makes us sound like girls.One thing to remember is most NCSU players probably never looked at (or even heard of ECU), whereas 90% of ECU's players were overlooked by NCSU and now have a chip on their shoulder.This should be another classic game between us, I like State 45-34 in a tough game that Russell puts up some monster numbers in.
10/10/2010 9:16:13 PM
it will not be that close.I'm not a person that's saying this isn't big game, or they aren't our rival, etc.But I don't see them being able to hang with us at all. Our offense is too good.
10/10/2010 9:23:37 PM
^^interestingly enoughno-one gives a fuck what you thinkId much rather play a better school than ECU like an SEC school.[Edited on October 10, 2010 at 9:24 PM. Reason : *]

^ fair enough, just know that you sound like a huge douche who can't handle the thought of getting beat by a rival.You come off sounding like a UNC fan with the whole "they're not our rivals BS".We aren't a national program. There's no reason to play teams we can't beat in games that don't mean anything. We need to play exciting games that people want to see like ECU.[Edited on October 10, 2010 at 9:28 PM. Reason : a]
10/10/2010 9:27:49 PM
you're a horrible trollI never said they aren't our rival. I said I couldn't care less about them.What constitutes national program? Recruiting? Ranking? History? I think you're full of shit. There are far better teams that we could spend our out of conference schedule spots on.
10/10/2010 9:42:37 PM
I got my degree at NCSU and the only reason I know that ECU is a rival of ours is that my wife told me after I had graduated. I'm not trying to cheapen the rivalry, but no one ever mentions ECU as a rival on campus. So, take that as you will.
