Syracuse Football: Waxing poetic on the Orange in a NC State of Mind

Our football guru has another rhyme for us in his Syracuse football preview at NC State.

Hello Orange family and welcome to another Syracuse football preview poem

I thought about doing it Billy Joel style since his jersey hangs in the Dome

But the last two I did were done in a song lyrics style

And I figured that’s likely enough to last us a while

So I thought I’d go back and do this game in the original form

Especially since I think the NC State game could be a perfect storm

This could possibly be one of those games where the winner is bowl-bound

And the loser might need to pray others lose or they can actually win out

Wolfpack head coach Dave Doeren has been in Raleigh for 8 years now

He recently signed an extension and with a 55-46 record, you can see how

And the Wolfpack with have the home field at Carter-Finley Stadium

Which can seat 58 thousand and it’s not some quiet gymnasium

Their offense looks potent based on the all research that I’ve done

Senior Emeka Emezie is ready to catch the ball; Ricky Person was born to run

Can McKinley Williams and Stefon Thompson limit the Pack to minimalize their backs

And hopefully, Adrian Cole and Eric Coley are healthy to aid a secondary that’s stacked

Coach Dino Babers and his staff will be looking to make an impact this year

And I have no doubt this game is one that they’ll look to kick in high gear

If you want a quality bowl game, this is one you’ll need to finish off with a win

Or maybe if the Orange hasn’t lost yet, we have a shot at being CFP champion

It’s too early to determine the TV channel yet but you can listen on TuneIn or TK99

But tune in Saturday, November 20th, and hopefully watch our Syracuse football shine

I didn’t fit in a lot of local mentions since this game will be played on the road

Beak and Skiff should be winding down and for the game, Home Team Pub is a place to go

If it’s a noon game, after take your kids to visit the MOST, that place as the kids say slaps

If it’s later, try the breakfast at Rise N Shine Diner…I love their Big Daddy Pancake Wrap

Okay so that’s it for the Wolfpack poetry game preview with only one more left to write

We close out the season at home with Pittsburgh on what will be Senior Night!

Let’s Go Orange!!!!

Next. Syracuse football should schedule these 3 Big Ten and Pac-12 teams. dark
