Careful, Wolfpack
NC State is about to kick off in the George Foreman Bowl. You know you are in a crappy bowl when it starts at 11am and is shown on ESPN2.
I expect the Wolfpack to have a tough time with this game. They have had a disappointing season, while opponent South Florida is playing in its first bowl game ever. Typically, teams that are excited about their bowl beat teams that are ambivalent about their bowl game.
I think the Wolfpack will prevail on the strength of its defense, but it better take South Florida seriously.
***UPDATE***
The Pack's defense showed up today and shut down South Florida for a 14-0 win.
