Meanwhile, Carolina basketball fans are down bad. But are they as down bad as Doug Gottlieb this week?

Joe Ovies and Joe Giglio open things up recapping their OG Tailgate before the Carolina Hurricanes game, which turned out to be a memorable night for head coach Rod Brind'Amour when he was surprised with an inclusion to the Order of the Long Leaf Pine. Meanwhile, in Charlotte, the Carolina Panthers regressed in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. While it was a missed opportunity for Bryce Young and the Panthers, it doesn't change much about the season. In college football, the guys offer their theories as to why Bill Belichick kicked the tires on the New York Jets before moving on to a variety of college football headlines. In hoops, NC State is running out of opportunities to make their case for the NCAA Tournament after losing at Kansas.
