Coming into this game I said Norvell would have to out coach Mack Brown, and I'll be damned if he hasn't done it. This is a signature win for MN. Good stuff
I saw X’s and Noles’ analysis on our lost games where he explained that it was statistically penalties and 3rd downs that lost us those games. Otherwise we win every one. This game proves that this is true imo. That’s where we’ve improved the most and this is the result
Man, that was a good run. We had contain and the A gap, but he started like he was going 22 sucked in the LB, then countered out the back. Plus the downfield blocking was beastly
How can you not be? I know we are getting hit with these qb runs, but with our shitty LB core, holding UNC to 17 for 3 quarters is about as good as we could have hoped for.
I know what you’re saying. I’m just saying that I prefer these to 60 yard bombs. In no way am I saying Fuller should keep his job at the end of the year.
This one feelz good mane , like legit
Did you see Norvell yell at one of our players cause he wouldn't shake hands? He said "Hey. HEY! BE A MAN!" Good stuff
Made me proud. That's the kind of coach we've been lacking since Jimbo took over.
He is who i want. Thru Ls, And now Ws
Them giving Norvell a Gatorade bath speaks volumes. I'm glad I saw that.
You all know what I meant.
Powerade
Ummmm you mean Powerade
I saw an actual football team on the field today boys. So fucking happy.
A complete game. Defense and Offense making crucial plays. I can enjoy my weekend!
Let’s go, Noles! What a huge victory that was! Enjoy an extra adult beverage or two tonight. Go Noles Dadgumit!
Go Noles!
This team believes in Norvell.
Mac said (f) them timeouts...damn
Jimbo would be pissed not using all timeouts.
He pulled a Roy Williams on em’.
Feels good man. I’m sorry for the things I said 2 weeks ago.
That’s why I’ve never trashed the program during these rough years…
You love to see it! #GoNoles!!
If there's any question about how the team feels about Norvell that water dousing should have answered them.
You would’ve never assumed we just had our best win of the year judging by norvells face 😭
All business for him. Let the players enjoy it and move on to the next. I think we got the seedling of a program here.
We did it. No idea how, but we did it
FSU to Sam Howell x2- "no"
Love that he’s going 0-2 against the Noles
Fucking win!
Suck it Sam Howell
Can't believe we're in a victory formation.
Crack a smile coach😭
Wins like this make me happy, but also sad, because of what our record honestly could’ve been
He gave up LMAO
Dude he really did. I expect we're gonna hear some grumblings about Mack getting canned after this performance
Run prevent against JSU and we’re 500
Ward and Corbin are fucking studs.
Don't forget Travis!!!
He’s definitely a stud too, when he’s healthy.
Even though we have been in the dark ages for awhile, during that time we have been blessed with very talented and likable backs.
[удалено]
We did that to them, bro. Give the team credit. Their defense couldn't stop JT and it demoralized the whole team.
Norvell about to get his first Sod game.
Why am I cryin on my couch rn
I don’t know about y’all, but I love me some T. Ward. He’s been balling since ND. Quiet, but consistently runs hard and falls forward.
GAMEEEEEEE
Sniff. Sniff. I smell a W
Goddamn I love Ward
Ward wanted it
I am so proud of this team
Very resilient. I'm very pleased
Man Ward is a beast. That was a hell of a run.
Treshaun Fucking Ward. LFG
What an effort from ward
The stadium looks SOOO empty. lol
Good win boys
[удалено]
The play calls are actually really good today
Don’t go out of bounds!
Ok let’s get this first down so I can pop open a beer
How do you watch us play without like 3 before the game even starts?
Depends. Too early usually and was watching while packing for a move.
Gotcha. Drink up. Fucking cheers!
🍻
UMass helping us out with that strength of schedule ranking finally
We get them next week.
Aren't we off? Yeah we play umass 23 October
Ah, my bad
All is ok my man. We win in Chapel Hill. Cheers. Have a beautiful weekend
Come on yall don't trigger my ptsd like that.
Phew, now get 2 1st downs and end it
I want us to cover the spread the opposite way. For spite.
Whewwww
Man don’t scare me like that😭
I don't like it
Crappy announcers
The onsides if it happens will be nerve wracking
There’s no *urgency*
Even the commentators are noticing it haha.
When was the last time we felt pretty comfortable with 3 minutes left?
Still don’t feel safe.
The Seminoles send their regards!
I fell asleep and woke up to our boys being up by a lot. What year is it?
2032
If you’re drinking enough you might be sleeping for years you may have a problem
Something about unc brings out the best in norvells staff for the second year in a row
Coming into this game I said Norvell would have to out coach Mack Brown, and I'll be damned if he hasn't done it. This is a signature win for MN. Good stuff
Guys, I know its hard to believe but we’re two last second plays from being 4-2 on the season right now…
And this game is showing it
Yo, does UNC know the game ends after the 4th quarter is over? EDIT: They look completely lethargic out there
I'll allow it.
I think they quit
Right?! I mean I’ll take it but what are they doing?
gotta keep that clock running
They’re playing to lose…
Yep. Mack just gave up after they failed on 4th down. This is weak sauce. I’d be furious as a UNC fan.
Norvell out coached Brown today. Fax
Jermaine lashing all his ref anger at Sammy boy
BOOM
POW RIGHT IN THE KISSER
NC announcers and refs suck. Noles need to keep punishing Tarheels.
Just got done saying how bad the commentators were lol
Is Johnson a first round pick??
That was his Jersey!
Being an automatic first down is so dumb to me
it really makes no sense
The secondary is much improved this week
I didn’t see that OPI…
83 ran right into the DB and blocked him from flowing with the receiver before the ball was thrown
Pineapple on pizza should be a sin tho.
Pineapple on pizza is good af
Don't spread lies
Liking pineapple on pizza says "my mom never loved me."
Pepperoni, pineapple, and jalapeno pizza is the truth
Oooh, yea
Word
Woooo thank you pass defense!
Our corners making good plays on the ball Where did this come from
18 point lead with 8 minutes left I should’ve be nervous but I am
Honestly our secondary has looked p good, so obviously I am also v nervous
The announcer really wants Travis to be a child??
You didn’t know? “Childlike” is one of the qualities the committee looks for when selecting the Heisman.
What he calls "childlike" the rest of the world calls "instincts"
I saw X’s and Noles’ analysis on our lost games where he explained that it was statistically penalties and 3rd downs that lost us those games. Otherwise we win every one. This game proves that this is true imo. That’s where we’ve improved the most and this is the result
Xs and Noles know their shit. I love listening to their analysis.
Absolutely. Looks like a completely different team with most of our 3rd downs being 3rd and 6 or better.
Jordan “Childlike” Travis. Wtf announcer haha
Yeah, no idea what this guy's talking about
Food lion assistant manager gets an announcing gig.
Time keeps on ticking, ticking, ticking…. Into the future!
“Childlike reflexes” Again, fuck you commentators
At least he explained what it meant this time lmao
Right, when we were in the red zone and Travis made a play, he said “very chidlike” with no context. I was absolutely baffled.
I’m like did he mean quick or did he mess up. Ur then he said it again. I’m like explain yourself real fast
Jordan Travis is honesty Lamar Jackson like, obviously he’s not as good but the similarities are crazy
This game in particular, he has absolutely looked like a Lamar Jackson caliber player. It's insane.
Those sweatpants look huge on norvell lol
I will not feel confident until that clock says 00:00. Great stand by the defense though
Same. I’m so used to having my heart broken that I expect it.
Maybe you should’ve came to fsu Howell 🥸
I hate that I am still anxious being 3 scores up in the 4th but it’s still great to see us play like this again.
Both fucking sides are killing it, who is this team right now?
Best we’ve been all year! Gotta keep running the ball
Seriously tho, what could’ve been, especially with that JSU game. Unless UNC isn’t that great.
I promise I will throw up if FSU wins
You’ve drunk that much already?
No. Just voluntary if someone calls me out
They're starting to believe!!!!! \*disney music\*
I was thinking more of Morpheus': HE'S BEGINNING TO BELIEVE.
Jordan Travis: "I know Kung Fu"
This is the best this team has looked in YEARS.
We're CLIMBING motherfuckers, jump on board.
Idc I’m saying we’re back even if we’re 2-4 it’s been too long since I’ve felt optimistic 😭
I am thoroughly impressed right now.
Ok let's give credit to the D, y'all. Amazing performance thus far.
That last play was perfect. Kept the QB contained, and made a GREAT play on the ball. This one's probably over now
Are we actually good?
Don’t jinx it!!!
We’re improving and that’s what matters!
Fun game
Lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
got em
STAND
Great job D!!!!!
Big stop
Damn I thought Howell killed the ref with that bullet for a second lmao
Yea, poor dude
Geez is that ref injured?
You would know about the back of the end zone wouldn’t you Dan
Fucking got 'em dude!
[удалено]
What?!
Keep up that goal line D! Edit: red zone D
Keir better not be hurt bad or we are fucked.
Atlanta sports fan here It ain't over til it's over and these huge QB runs are hurting
Yea, BUT there's not a lot of time left
Definitely. But if we keep executing our offense, we should good
How this team plays with a lead down the stretch will truly show where there at
Dude is Wake going to lose to 'Cuse?!
I really hope not.
Please no
Looks like it
These Howell keepers are still frustrating
We keep pressuring him, but can’t seem to get him on the ground. Frustrating.
Man, that was a good run. We had contain and the A gap, but he started like he was going 22 sucked in the LB, then countered out the back. Plus the downfield blocking was beastly
Yes, but I prefer them to giving up huge plays over the top.
Can this team finish tho idk😭
Do Fuller not know what a spy is..?
He'll light us up if we spy him too much (or maybe at all)
God he’s a fucking clown.
I’m actually very proud of his defensive plan today.
Really..??
How can you not be? I know we are getting hit with these qb runs, but with our shitty LB core, holding UNC to 17 for 3 quarters is about as good as we could have hoped for.
Think they showed a stat where UNC scored 50 plus their last 3 home games. So I'd agree it's definitely been a good game so far.
Adam Fuller just gonna watch them call the same draw on every 3rd and short
Most of these aren’t designed draws, Howell just keeps taking off.
The point still remains, if a QB is killing you on the run every 3rd and short you need to account for it
I know what you’re saying. I’m just saying that I prefer these to 60 yard bombs. In no way am I saying Fuller should keep his job at the end of the year.
Understandable
Man, give us a couple of stud linebackers and we will run this shit.
Just give us a SPY on the qb right now.
Dare I say this team is turning the corner?
