Is the band coming to this game? I certainly hope so. They can play the Red & White song and we can still use the "GO TO HELL CAROLINA" lyric. [Edited on August 1, 2008 at 6:46 PM. Reason : ]

I encourage you all to try to make this game. We need to show our support and make a good impression on national TV. It'd be great if we had a very noticeable amount of fans there. It would send a message to the team that we are fully behind them this year, and if the SC fans notice how good of fans we are they might just spread the word to their SEC brethren about us and maybe other fanbases will know that we are the fanbase in NC that is the most rabid about football. I know that the VT fans were really impressed by us back when we first went up there in 04. I listened to their post game radio show as I left Blacksburg. One caller said that we had as many if not more fans than LSU did when they visited them, and that we were louder than them. They commended us on how well we traveled and how nice we were. They were excited about having future games with us and were convinced that the move to the ACC would be great for them. One fan though was pissed b/c of how many fans we had and where we were placed. We had a number of fans in the lower and upper parts of the SEZ as well as the Southern end of the East stands, and he thought that we were able to distract their kicker. He was outraged that Tech would allow so many of our fans to come and didn't spread them throughout more parts of the stadium. I think there are a few pictures of the VT game and post game reactions in my gallery, provided they weren't lost.Now this is what I call being prepared! http://www.ucfpics.com/DSCN0475.JPG[Edited on August 1, 2008 at 2:58 PM.

i could see SC trying a blackout or something, since it's the first game, thursday night, on ESPN and allwish i could go. i'll guess i'll have to settle for vegas instead to bet on this game, or not to bet on this game....
8/1/2008 3:13:33 PM
isn't the spread like -13 to USC, as much as I would never bet on NCSU it seems like USC's offense might have trouble covering that with their QB situation being as bad as it is
8/1/2008 3:26:34 PM
Well their color is Maroon while ours is red. There is a difference. It would be nice if they did have a black out since it would make our red stand out that much more though.Let's turn it State Red! Or perhaps everyone wearing white would be better. Hmm...

8/2/2008 7:44:36 PM
In the spirit of good sportsmanship, it's a "newer" tradition to play the opposing teams song at Williams-Brice. So if it's any consolation, the SC band will most likely end up playing the NCSU fight song for you.
