Just saw on Twitter
where Stricklin and HailStateFB both just followed the Belk Bowl. Looks like it's going to be Charlotte. Who is our likely opponent?

I was thinking Duke as well. That would almost be like a road game.

Yeah disregard, I was thinking Nashville. Need more coffee.

We are playing Virginia Tech in Charlotte, 99% sure

Va Tech is a much better matchup for us than UNC and Duke. UNC would probably out score us and Duke would probably out smart us.

Carrie Underwood performs before the game.

I agree, I like the matchup better than any good offensive team. They have a good defense, and typically their corners are excellent....so we'll have to come out with a good game plan offensively.

Dan doesn't lose to bad teams.

We won't carry a crowd worth a damn to Charlotte. I know I won't be able to go. Would MUCH rathe have Music City. Sweet baby Jesus please let us play somewhere close enough that our fans can go see Dak one last time.
It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

Looks like this will be their 23rd straight Bowl under Beamer, and they're 10-12 in bowl games under him (if my math is correct). Should be a winnable game over a good program, so I like the draw. We definitely aren't going to get blown out if we lose, unless we turn the ball over a ton...because their offense isn't too good. It could be a low scoring, tight game...or we beat them handily.
With our secondary, we should pray this is who we face.

We have alumni in North Carolina. If Beamer is coaching this game it'll be an honor to play against him in his final game.

This is pretty much the only reason I don't want the Belk...

I think bowls are dying with the Championship. Once the major teams are no longer in the top 4, there is a big drop off in fan support. Not that we were at that level, but very few bowls outside of those are getting great crowds anymore. It is too expensive for most, for a game that doesn't mean anything. I'm not spending 3 grand to take my family to NC to the Belk bowl.

Agreed. If we were doing Music City or even Gator (got friends who live there), I would go.
But overall, bowl games are dying, and I think the reason is that they aren't special anymore. Everyone gets a bowl.
