Pack/Canes Game Thread

As was the Wake contest last weekend, this will be a “treadmill game” for me. I will join you in the comments for the second half, but hopefully my first half running will provide similar good luck.

NC State is in a three game “house money” stretch. Well, sort of. Going 0-for-3 wouldn’t be good – but one win is all we really need to hold serve and be well on track for a winning record in ACC play – which is the sensible goal for the 2011-12 Wolfpack.

CJ Williams will apparently give it a go today, which is huge for us. Hard to beat anybody with just a 6-man playable rotation. I like today being a test case for him – if he can’t play much or is exceptionally sore afterwards, I expect him to be held out until next Saturday’s pivotal contest against UVA. But that is just my opinion, and I’m sure tons of people will bitch about it some more. Free country and whatnot.

    It is an ACC game on the road. Should have expected a last effort from Miami. Let’s see what we got. Interesting that the fouls are still in our favor but they have got two of our most needed players with 4.

    Coach Jimbo with the attempted icing.

    Come on Wood… Stupid reach!

  22. Rick 01/22/2012 at 2:21 PM #

    That is the kind of stupid foul from Wood that I have been talking about.

  23. Wulfpack 01/22/2012 at 2:23 PM #

    What the hell is the rush on offense?

  24. WeAreCured 01/22/2012 at 2:23 PM #

    And a stupid foul on Howell! We may lose this game yet.

  25. Rick 01/22/2012 at 2:23 PM #

    Howell, what kind of bone headed stupid foul was that. We will be better with you down
