0-0 at half for Va Tech @ NC State. Bad football

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing but didn't find the thread. ACC is oof

Wrong, they just play defense.

This. Either VaTech is way better than everyone thinks (doubtful), or NCState has been overrated since the jump because sometimes they looked good last year.

They lost their starting qb for basically the rest of the year, if I remember correctly. He was pretty much their reason for being good.

I noticed they are rolling with two. If that's the case, and they've already lost twice, you'd think their ranking would reflect it. Guessing that may take care of itself after tonight.

Edit: Defense does look pretty good, but offense looks putrid

 

[BrewingFrog]

Only 30 more minutes to another game. Thank goodness...

0-0 at half for Va Tech @ NC State. Bad football

Thought they kicked a FG. What happened?

FWIW they did. It was 3-0 NC State at the half

 

[Frognosticator]

I saw a miss. Jumped the gun.

VT coach called his second TO. Kicker wound up going 2 out of 3.

I must have missed that. Anyway, NC State wins by 1. Gary would be proud

Serves him right. I hatey, hate, hate the "icing the kicker" thing.

I was actually surprised the mope didn’t use his last one to make it 3 in a row Total clown show.

I was in the same boat as Frognosticator: Was cooking dinner for Mrs. Brewingfrog with the TV on, and kept seeing the guy kick and miss. I thought they had gone to halftime with no score.

As always, thanks for the link, amigo...

Watching the La Tech-FIU game. Is it just me, or did the guy on the recovery of the pooch kickoff land out of bounds? I could never see a foot in bounds, yet they reviewed it and gave FIU the ball. Go figure...
