Pack/Holes “House Money” Game Thread

Much less anxious today, just want the Pack to go out there and give it their best shot. Let the chips fall where they may.

As I said before the BC game, the old adage of “it’s hard to beat the same team three times” is a load of BS. Unfortunately, that works both ways. Henson is out, though…

A few interesting points of note:

* Today is Jim Valvano’s birthday. He would have been 66 years old today.

* Tomorrow is the 32nd anniversary of Black Sunday when Duke and UNC both lost in the NCAA Tournament in Reynolds Coliseum to Penn and St. John’s, respectively.

* It was in the ACC Tournament EXACTLY 25 years ago that Jim Valvano’s NC State swept through the Big Four (Duke, Wake, UNC-CH) to win the ACC Championship in Landover, Maryland. UNC was UNDEFEATED in the ACC that year and ranked #1 in the country.

    We should’ve won this game. Fairly called, we do.

    Alas …

    Lets win this, win tomorrow, and immediately announce our move to the SEC in 2013

    The poor tarholes, playing without Henson and all …

    5-on-8 without the best player on the court and we’re down by 1. We’d win a freaking national title with unbiased officials.

    I encourage everyone not to watch any ACC games in which NCSU is not in. None.

    How can those refs look at themselves in the mirror?

  12. Wufpacker 03/10/2012 at 3:29 PM #

    This is really getting kinda obvious now.

  13. redcanine 03/10/2012 at 3:29 PM #

    Alright: everyone in America knows that we keep getting focked by the refs.

    Wood and Zeller go up and Wood gets called … “so the number 1 seed is poised and positioned to advance” says the announcer …

  19. Rick 03/10/2012 at 3:30 PM #

    I would put TDT in and tell him to take some players out

    This game CANNOT go into overtime unless we’re ready to play DeThaey, Harris, and Raymond.
