If I was an NC State fan I’d need a RedditCares message right now

No one is emotionally invested enough in this program anymore to need it. We wanted Dave fired years ago

Legit had my VT friend text me “wow great win” after the INT and did a “buddy we are never no drama” and I hate that it’s expected at this point.

People are going to rip Bailey for not holding onto that football, and yes, he can get ripped for that. However, they run the short down QB for 3 plays, made no real effort to actually get a 1st down, then tried to get cute on running the clock out. That’s on the coaching staff. Just fucking pick up the 1st man. They made no effort other than 3 draws.

This is a Dave disaster class level game and it’s on him more than anyone.

Not to say Dave isn’t blameless but that’s on Bailey. Either run out the clock and throw it away or take a safety if it breaks down. He’s a 3 year starter they should be able to trust him to not fuck up in that situation
