I looked at scores mid afternoon and saw SC was up 30-3 at the half. I figured it was an espn glitch so I went to cbs and by god they claimed the same! I spent a little time fiddling around in the shop and then checked scores on cbs and SC was reportedly down 30-31. So I went to espn to make sure cbs wasn’t in a glitch.

I think ol Shane is a pretty good Xs and Os coach but my understanding is he is not an ace recruiter. That is an almost impossible barrier in the conference that has had the most players picked in the first round in 14 of the last 15 drafts. As a Mississippi State fan you appreciate those unique years when a Mike Leach changes your expectations but those guys are few and far between and Shane is not one of them.

I saw that live. Makes you wonder what that guy does when there are no cameras.

The massive presence of these guys on the sidelines, over the coach's shoulder, etc. is a massive waste of taxpayer money. i hope to god they are off duty being hired by the boosters.

I'm pretty angry at our sorry ass coach and his highway robbery, but I'm not prepping to assault the guy or anything.

You know Duke will be favored by 4 or so, right? Duke has played light years better than UNC this year.

Anything can happen in a rivalry game, but it is extremely unlikely this UNC team would “kill” anyone.

.we were favored by 5 last night and never even tried

Many SCAR fans, my dad included, consider Shane an excellent recruiter, but poor coach.

Virginia is also much better than UNC.

Predicting how Duke will play against UNC based on games against ok teams like Virginia or Connecticut is a mistake. Duke has not struggled with teams of the Elon quality.
 
James Madison, North Texas, Tulane and Houston are all in the top 25. I don't think they are really one of the top 25 teams in the country, though. Just the best teams based on who they actually play in their conference. Still, there is no reason they should have better players, better coaches, and more money to spend on football and be better than UNC.

Ummm ...we struggled with Elon. Tied at halftime.

Y'all should have beaten Virginia

Football is a 60 minute game. It is entirely possible that UNC could be competitive for a half. But Duke should have little trouble putting UNC away, even if Duke has quit.
