Jason Capel was a better coach than Jim Fox. Woodlands pulled pork isn’t good. Taylor Lamb is the best QB we’ve ever had.

I’m 100% serious about these and am prepared to defend them.

Moody. That one has to be true because Chancellor Everts says it is. Good one.

In all seriousness as well...

Armanti Edwards is the greatest QB we've ever had that I witnessed. If you take stats out of the equation (As I think you should) and going off what I watched I have to give the edge to AE. It's like Jordan over LeBron. I have a friend that sends me texts with all these stat comparisons, but since I've seen both play with my own two eyes, Jordan is better.

WCU was a better rival than the Gnats of Statesboro

These are flaming hot takes, and while I'm not sure I agree with any of them (uncertain on the first two, definite disagree on the last), kudos for nailing the spirit of the thread. :lol:

Beat ETSU!

Don't underestimate UNC, they have Mack Brown and a lot of talent.

We need to schedule more FCS teams outside of our footprint.

Comparing Edwards to Jordan is fair.

Stadium lot tailgating is wack. Doesn't hold a candle to Raley lot circa mid-2000s.

Going to Michigan a second time was a mistake. 1-0 >>>>> 1-1.

Eric Church sucks (maybe not that unpopular anymore).

While in a stunning setting, Kidd Brewer is teetering on being a dump.

I think you missed the point, it said "Unpopular Opinions". You stated a fact in your post.

THIS.

Its greasy, stringy, flavorless bbq yet for some reason it's put up on a pedestal. I don't get it.

That reminds me:

Macado's is nothing special and didn't deserve to outlive so many non-chain King St. institutions.

Facts facts facts.

Out of the way for most but Shatley Springs is 10 times better.

I mean it isn't terrible. It's just miles below the stuff they serve in the eastern part of the state. Charlotte doesn't have any good pulled pork either. At least not any that would crack my top 5.

Woodlands sides and especially chicken wings are great.

The chances of the NEP being done by the start of the 2021 season is currently 40%
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.

They are likely 50 years too old.
