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.

    “How can those refs look at themselves in the mirror?”

    If not for the refs helping them, we would have blown them out of the water today.

    If UNC wins, they’ve already won it on the FT’s we’ve already missed.

    The refs have been the story all year. Something has got to change.

  6. BJD95 03/10/2012 at 3:35 PM #

    Don’t let them have last shot.

    ESPN has it right! Refs WIN! Refs and HOLES win! I hate this!

  21. BJD95 03/10/2012 at 3:38 PM #

    He was on the fucking baseline!!!!! And that was a fucking charge!!!!!!! Thank you Elmore for calling out this bullshit the fuck out.

    ESPN is saying it pointblank. The story is the officiating.

  22. PackerInRussia 03/10/2012 at 3:39 PM #

    “The big story today, like it or not, is the officiating.” “Everyone has a bad today, but someone has to pay for it.” announcers on ESPN.

  23. Rick 03/10/2012 at 3:39 PM #

    This is why no one watches the ACC anymore.
    They make sure the crap Blue teams win.

  24. BJD95 03/10/2012 at 3:39 PM #

    The Hole saved the ball with foot on the endline. We should have 5 seconds. Even after the charge BS.

  25. Rick 03/10/2012 at 3:39 PM #

    I am done with this cheating conference.
