Pack/Castrated Turkeys Game Thread

It’s the 5 seed (against BC Thursday night) or the 7 seed (Wake). Sadly, seeds 4 and 6 are now out of reach.

But going over .500 in league play has always been the highest and best realistic goal for this team. It would be a major accomplishment, and earn MG my “vote” for ACC Coach of the Year. So a win makes this season an unqualified success.

Unlike Wesnesday, I don’t feel especially good going into this game. VPI is playing much better, though their record doesn’t show it. That’s a dangerous combination for a fired up team looking to play spoiler. We shall see. Remember, I’m not a great prognosticator.

    “If we don’t open the bench up just a tad (Harris etc.) we will be screwed in the tourney. They will pass out on the floor”

    Too late for that.

    Gottfried should send an assistant to do the halftime interview

    Wish we’d play De Thaey and Harris more at times like this. We need the depth for when players get in foul trouble.

    The ref crew that worked the MVC final today was outstanding.

    hold on boys, just hold on, keep giving Calvin the ball that foul line.

    Looks like Herb should be up for another raise since they beat AZ. If not he’s should at least get another 2 year extension.

    It’s not as much a shocker that ASU beat Az. It’s that ASU scored 87.

    No way in hell should AZ even be considered for the tourney. They suck donkey balls.

  9. WolftownVA81 03/04/2012 at 7:31 PM #

    Guess that one goes in the bad loss column for AZ.

    Herbie wins one for the Wolfpack?

    Wouldn’t it be ironic if Herb’s win drops AZ from the field of 68, opening up the last spot in the NCAA for NC State to slip in with 2 wins in the ACCT.

    Loved the blind resume bit they did at half…

    I thought Arizona sucked Moose Balls. I think if you check you dictionary it is Moose Balls. Definitely Moose Balls BJD95. Donkey Balls are much smaller. Elephant Balls are too big and can’t really be sucked. Therefore, Moose Balls. Sorry to have to correct you on that but I can’t let something like that go.

    87 in one game? That has to be 2 combined games for ASU. Did AZ score for ASU?

  14. beeeejay 03/04/2012 at 7:36 PM #

    How was AZ even on the bubble with a resume like that??

  15. beeeejay 03/04/2012 at 7:38 PM #

    Also why does a top 50 win not count after the fact, that just seems retarded if it was top 50 when you win it should count, and still our resume was better than az

    “No way in hell should AZ even be considered for the tourney. They suck donkey balls.”

    Some putz said they are in before us. They had virtually nothing over us but one top 50 win.

    Only NC State could win then lose a blind resume contest.

  18. BJD95 03/04/2012 at 7:39 PM #

    Oof, I don’t like that “revised” resume. We really, really need Miami to win one, probably two in the ACCT.

  19. tuckerdorm1983 03/04/2012 at 7:39 PM #

    Moose Balls I say, Bellas de la Moose

  20. redcanine 03/04/2012 at 7:40 PM #

    They have us with 3 bad losses? Don’t know about that one.

    I’ll give you GT, but the other two are questionable.

  21. Tampa-Pack 03/04/2012 at 7:42 PM #

    “Only NC State could win then lose a blind resume contest.” I was thinking the same thing…

  22. eas 03/04/2012 at 7:42 PM #

    So if Kentucky’s starting 5 all got suspended for a month and they went from #1 to sucking donkey balls then a win against K a month before is worthless? This bracket BS sucks.

  23. BJD95 03/04/2012 at 7:42 PM #

    I’m guessing maybe Stanford and Clemson are sub-100 RPI losses? Can’t imagine who else it could be.

  24. Tampa-Pack 03/04/2012 at 7:43 PM #

    and that ASU/AZ game. was that some kind of double header? no way they have that kind of offense…

  25. 1.21 Jigawatts 03/04/2012 at 7:43 PM #

    That blind test can change dramatically from 2 things. Miami and Texas. They get their RPI into the top 50 we have 3 wins.
