#17 4 COACH IN #2027

I wonder if the players are happy? Did they view this like a vacation in an exotic location and are now bummed out about not going...or happy that they no longer have to deal with potential crime, lack of fans/family, etc

Put your mind in the mind of an 18-25 year old male. Free-ish international trip. Hot, exotic ladies. Brazilian bikini bottoms.
Team security. As long as someone doesn't fuck up logistics and schedules aren't too tight, I don't see what's not to like. If any player puts up gaudy numbers, there will be tv coverage for future portal scouts.

An international game seems like a lot of potential distractions from their studies and homework imo. Best to keep it local.

Disaster

Quote :

"NC State quarterback Jacob Smith is no longer on the football roster and will put his focus on baseball as a right-handed pitcher moving forward. Smith is still recovering from Tommy John surgery after enrolling early with the Wolfpack."

Thank you.

6/11/2026 6:27:05 AM

Gunner, at his first frat party, talking to a lady and acting not at all chill "uh, yea, so, I'm so good they already retired my number"

I was one of the (apparently) ~50 people who weren't family of the teams who had tickets to the Brazil game. They just emailed again about refunds.

Quote :

"Our goal remains the same: to ensure that every customer who purchased through the official CollegeFootballBrasil.us website receives the refund to which they are entitled. As previously communicated, refunds may be issued in multiple transactions rather than a single payment depending on the status of the underlying funds. If that becomes necessary, you will receive advance notice identifying the amount being refunded and any remaining balance due."

This is going to be a mess.

^ Sorry for your headache.

Assuming you don't live near Brazil, how did the refunding of your airfare, lodging, and rental car/Über go?

7/10/2026 12:16:46 PM

lol did our athletic department get scammed by whoever was putting on the Brazil game?

7/10/2026 12:47:31 PM

We're still going to Brazil regardless, and fortunately didn't do one of their package deals. We just got two game tickets (plus the tailgate and Christ the Redeemer tour add-ons).

Had been messaging the infamous Greg Haas and was going to hang out with him, but none of that's going to happen now.

"DT KaTron Evans from Marshall"

These guys ineligible. Not sure they were on the two deep but never a good thing.

7/28/2026 11:51:17 AM

Actually Evans was almost definitely on the 2 deep, I think Victor is the only other Nose Tackle on the roster

7/28/2026 2:15:01 PM

Sucks for them they won’t be able to get a championship ring with the rest of the team.

7/28/2026 3:44:29 PM

Picked 7th in media preseason poll. Seems pretty optimistic. Supposedly our easy schedule will help.

7/28/2026 8:52:57 PM

Don't worry as long as we get improved performance from qb/rb/wr/ol/dl/lb/db/st we'll be pretty good

7/29/2026 9:02:49 AM

All i hear is our ACC is so weak, i think we only play 2 teams picked above us. UVA and LOU

is it a 10 win season or 7 or 8 wins.

7/29/2026 11:32:33 AM

brother i dont think we win more than 6

7/30/2026 12:55:46 PM

Ranked 39th in the useless preseason/coaches poll, unless maybe they start you out in the top 15 and give you a little bias. I really think we can move in between 20-25, and make some noise as Louisville visits Raleigh.

Make Sports Talk great again!

8/5/2026 4:54:02 PM

I think we can get to 10 with our weak schedule and CJ is gonna play himself into a top 10 pick!!1

8/5/2026 8:38:45 PM

ESPN did a big arch enemies thing and David Hale says that NC State footballs arch enemy is ???Christian Wilkins???

I don't know who it should be but not him

8/7/2026 12:44:42 PM

Wake Forest maybe? Or Torrey Smith? Or maybe we’re our own arch nemesis?

I can see it being Clemson since we couldn’t get over that hump of beating them back in the days of the Atlantic division but I don’t really get it being Wilkins specifically.
