"WEAR RED…don’t believe the rumors you may be hearing, Liberty fans should wear Red J - NC State will be giving out White Howl Towels at the stadium entrances to their fans, but Liberty will be providing a limited number of Red, White, & Blue pom poms to our fans, so don’t worry, we won’t blend in with their crowd. Liberty fans should still wear your same Liberty Red!"

Yeah. Cause Red really stands out with the color red.

All kidding aside, I think they do a pretty good job on road games.

I just purchased a new blue polo and hat just for this game because I did not want to blend in. If we wear red we are sure to blend in.

Don't tell the Athletics dept.

I'll be in red simply because it's all I got. My blue basketball hoodie, well let's just say it's a little to big on me haha

I wanted to wear a white long sleeve shirt underneath, but it looks like the weather will be too warm for that. I am allowed to wear that just in case?

Now that I've basically described myself, a few of you on here will probably come find me and slam my head into the grass

You should come to a NC. State- Maryland game.

Sounds like a lot of red!

Christpohe is back, good.

Another key that hasn't been mentioned much is Special Teams. We have two great Senior kickers where NC State is breaking in 2 true freshman.

Check out the FSN's new weekend wrap-up - thought this was particularly well done.

I think this is completely about their defensive line vs our offensive line. Obviously they're deeper given our scholarship differences but we either matchup well or they have giant question marks at seemingly every other spot. I think they're going to put a ton of pressure on MB all day, and we will not be able to run the ball. Our defense will be able to hold their own, but they'll get worn down being on the field so much. Given all of that, I'm guessing a close, low scoring game for one half, with NCST pulling away very gradually in the 2nd half. 90% of our offense will be credited to Mike Brown making things happen outside of the pocket which can only get you so far.

That follows my train of thought as well. But i have a feeling that Mike will help us put up some points through the air. I don't see us having much of a ground game in this one. We'll need to win this one through the air and with turnovers.

chris lang via twitter:

Liberty NG Asa Chapman suspended indefinitely after arrest, drug charges. More later in the blog and Wednesday in print N&A.

and:

Chapman is definitely out for Saturday's game at N.C. State. Didn't practice Tuesday.

[TDDance234]

Well that hurts, badly. Our DL goes from solid to HUGE question mark within a matter of hours.

State lost 2 Defensive Line Sarters from last year. And their senior captain Defensive Tackle will miss the first five games with injury. They will be in the same boat as our O line as far as experience. I still agree that we will need to win this one in the air, I am just a little more optimistic about our abitility to control the line.

Liberty coach familiar with NCSU's O'Brien, challenge still great

North Carolina State University has never played Liberty in football. Head coach Tom O’Brien has never led a team against the Flames. But Liberty head coach Danny Rocco believes he has a beat on the Wolfpack and their head man - even though the challenge will be great

The Asa situation is a heart breaker in so "many" ways .... I wonder how it will affect the team mentally this week.

[BiggAl57]

Heard we were doing the all white look for the game

[kuntryboimike]

Heard we were doing the all white look for the game

NOOOO we are NOT doing that look. At least that's what I've read in emails from the athletics department and on Facebook pages etc... I keep hearing the white is a rumor and NOT to do it. I'll be wearing red.
