Ovies & Giglio are back to break down a brutal weekend for local sports, starting with NC State loss to Kansas. Moral victories were not the promise from Will Wade, and now the Wolfpack's NCAA Tournament path is a little trickier thanks to missed Quad 1 opportunities. Then it's onto the most predictable team in the NFL: The Carolina Panthers. They did it again, blowing a critical game to the New Orleans Saints. While the NFC South is technically still in play, Panthers fans should've seen this "up-and-down" cycle coming. Finally, Luke DeCock joins the podcast after stepping away from his role at the News & Observer. They look back on a quarter-century of Triangle sports and dive into the serious concerns about the current state of local media coverage and what it means for the future of sports fandom.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Intro04:00 - Pack's Q1 problem20:00 - OG Sports Phone27:00 - NC State's soccer reckoning35:00 - Duke's resume38:00 - UNC's sleepy weekend41:00 - Housekeeping47:00 - Panthers blew it1:07:30 - Luke DeCock1:51:00 - Hey JoeOG x BreakingT: https://breakingt.com/collections/the-ovies-giglio-collection?rfsn=7630833.c3bd9f7OG Secret Stash: http://theog.shop/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OGTriangleMediaOG Membership Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1Qpevj6hElebdWc2SSGkWw/join Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ovies & Giglio kick off by proving the iron-clad rule of the Triangle: Jordan Staal only plays his best when Eric Staal is being honored. So just keep finding new things to celebrate! In other news, the ACC got an unlikely defender in Big 12 commish Brett Yormark. We discuss why this just another example of the college landscape changing and why local fans must pay attention.NFC South Showdown: Julian Council from LockedOn Panthers joins the podcast to dive into the final, defining stretch of the Carolina Panthers' season.

Ovies & Giglio start with Notre Dame's calculated temper tantrum directed at the ACC. It’s not just anger — it’s the clear, aggressive first step in their exit strategy. Where does Notre Dame land next? We look at the obvious choice (the Big Ten) and the bold, ultimate move: should they lead the charge for the next generation of Super Conferences instead of just swapping scheduling partners?Maniscalco on the Hurricanes: The great Mike Maniscalco joins the show to break down the highly inconsistent Canes home-stand.

Then, we transition to the local stuff we know and love:-- Massive props to Manny Diaz and Duke Football for achieving the perfect, beautiful form of "Triangle Good".-- Red Reckoning out, "Hostile Takeover" in: Will Wade had an eye-opening pregame chat with the Wolfpack radio network, is it what NC State needed to turn the basketball season around?-- Duke's Best Resume: Meanwhile, the Blue Devils have quietly put together arguably the best resume in college basketball.-- Panthers: Can We Have Nice Things?

The show opens with Joe Giglio delivering an apology to NC State head coach Dave Doeren — which might be the best birthday present Doeren got all week. From there, the guys dive into Will Wade’s “Red Reckoning,” which is starting to look more like a series of red flags for Wolfpack hoops after their ACC-SEC Challenge loss at Auburn. As the Carolina Hurricanes gear up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 2006 Stanley Cup run, Canes legend Eric Staal joins the pod to reflect on that championship season and share what life has been like in retirement. Plus, a social media dump, a few detours (of course), and much more.This episode comes to you from Copiers Plus in Fayetteville, where Ovies & Giglio were invited to the company’s holiday party. After two years as the show’s presenting sponsor, Copiers Plus is officially returning in 2026, and the guys celebrate by taking the show on the road to their corporate office.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Intro02:30 - Giglio apologizes to Doeren09:00 - Pack lose at Auburn28:00 - Housekeeping31:30 - Eric Staal convo56:30 - OG Gambling Syndicate1:06:00 - Social Media Dump1:28:00 - Drew Smith from Copiers PlusOG x BreakingT: https://breakingt.com/collections/the-ovies-giglio-collection?rfsn=7630833.c3bd9f7OG Secret Stash: http://theog.shop/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OGTriangleMediaOG Membership Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1Qpevj6hElebdWc2SSGkWw/join Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

North Carolina grinds out a win over Kentucky and Duke escapes Florida in dramatic fashion — two big statements for Hubert Davis and Jon Scheyer. So can NC State and Will Wade keep the ACC momentum going against Auburn? The latest College Football Playoff rankings have set everyone off again, and Ovies thinks there are only two real solutions to fix the mess going forward. N&O columnist Luke DeCock stops by to draw some surprising parallels between the 2005–06 Carolina Hurricanes and the current 2025–26 squad. Could it all be building toward another Stanley Cup run?

On today’s Ovies & Giglio, the guys open with ACC hoops, which has quietly trended much better than last year’s slog. But this week brings a real measuring stick with the ACC–SEC Challenge, starting with potential statement opportunities for Duke and North Carolina. After a brief tangent on the end of an era with K&W cafeterias closing, the guys welcome ESPN’s David Hale to unpack the ACC’s doomsday College Football Playoff scenario. Should the league push for auto-bids, or is this a brutal reflection of Clemson and Florida State taking major steps back at the worst possible time? Then WFNZ’s Walker Mehl stops by to talk Carolina Panthers, searching for some level of zen while trying to make sense of Bryce Young and the overall direction of the franchise. Plus, the guys break down the latest sports media angle surrounding the ongoing Lane Kiffin saga.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - ACC SEC hoops challenge09:00 - RIP K&W16:30 - OG Gambling Syndicate19:00 - Housekeeping25:00 - ESPN's David Dale58:00 - WFNZ's Walker Mehl1:23:00 - More on Lane KiffinOG x BreakingT: https://breakingt.com/collections/the-ovies-giglio-collection?rfsn=7630833.c3bd9f7OG Secret Stash: http://theog.shop/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OGTriangleMedia Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Another college football season in the Triangle comes down to one simple truth: how’d you do against your rivals? For NC State and UNC, the entire vibe of the year hinges on Saturday’s result. For Wolfpack head coach Dave Doeren, it’s all about maintaining the status quo — a rollercoaster season potentially saved again by beating the Tar Heels.
