Mickey Plyler and Joe Giglio

Mickey Plyler of WCCP-FM joins the podcast to share what it's like when so much criticism is coming from fans through the airwaves in the midst of Clemson's offense scoring a total of 17 points in two games against Georgia and Georgia Tech.

What's fair criticism and what's over the top? What's the answer for this offense, and are things going to get markedly better in the near future?

Joe Giglio visits to reflect on his transition from a long career in newspapers to a radio talk-show host for WRAL. Giglio attended N.C. State and covered the Wolfpack for decades. He gives his take on Dave Doeren, who since taking over in 2013 has just one victory over a team that finished in the Top 25. Have the fans soured on him? Do they even care enough to run him out of town?

Do the Wolfpack have the juice to knock off Clemson? Is this really Doeren's best team when State couldn't come close to beating Mississippi State a couple weeks ago?

And what's the reaction in Raleigh to Will Shipley, who has all sorts of family ties to the Wolfpack, going to Clemson and becoming an instant sensation as a playmaker for the Tigers?
