Let’s hope their article after the Pack’s 81-56 win in Raleigh proves to be accurate foreshadowing. Beyond the reporter’s glum thoughts, you have these choice player quotes:
– A.D. Vassallo: “In sports there’s always that one team or that one player that always performs good against you, and I think N.C. State’s got the upper hand against us.”
– Jamon Gordon: “I really couldn’t tell you, man, to tell you the truth. It ain’t like they’re quicker than us. They ain’t faster than us. I guess against some teams you got their number, and they got ours.”
Any athlete will tell you how crucial your mental state is. Come out early and smack the castrated turkeys in the mouth, and see how they react. We know we’re in their heads at least a little bit – now, finish the job!
