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.

    I like Elmore, but more when he works with Gus Johnson.

    Carolina’s goofy white kid is awful. Bet he stays in Utah post-mission.

    ESPN doesn’t have 2 fouls on CJ now so I guess it was not a foul…

    Roy is so mad that the refs dare to call fouls… especially offensively.

    This is NOT the same State team.

    This is NOT the same Carolina team.

    Perfect storm for us? I hope so.

    Our guys are confident. This game will come down to the end. I like how we are playing.

  23. Sweet jumper 03/10/2012 at 2:15 PM #

    I can’t believe they are making a run without Marshall. Come on Pack!!!!!!!!!

  24. wufpup76 03/10/2012 at 2:15 PM #

    We can beat this team. Disappointing that we didn’t pull away while both Marshall and Zeller were out.

  25. JeremyH 03/10/2012 at 2:15 PM #

    I think that is a play gets semi-busted, just get it back to Zo, I want him to set the table every time
