FSU game day thread

Looking to make it three in a row. We are playing FSU tonight at 7. The Pack is favored by 8.
I think we finally have a good game and win by 12+.

It appears Buckets is coming out of his slump so if we can just get Purvis back to playing well we could be hitting on a cylinders going into tournament time. Rodney’s problems are all in his head so hopefully the coaching staff can help him work through this.

    Wow… 31 and 13, 5-5 from the line…

    I hope he has some juju left for the holes.

    Kudos to wufpacker who called the comfortable win.

    And there it is! Whatever the basketball equivalent of a “perfect QB rating” game is…you just saw it from Buckets. Seriously, maybe the best single game performance since the Rodney Monroe days.

    Don’t give me any kudos, I was talking out of my ass as usual….was just hoping.

    Need TJ to show up on the road. That’s his achilles heel thus far.. same with Big Rod.

    Uh

    Hello?

    Outstanding.

    Nice win….now let’s keep it rolling and smash some tar babies this weekend. Gotta get that tiebreaker just in case anyway.

    lol rick, he called it this afternoon I think.

  12. Wufpacker 02/20/2013 at 12:01 AM #

    “Uh

    Hello?”

    You did good too Rick 😀

    One last word on JV. He is still here and has never complained.

  14. TheAliasTroll 02/20/2013 at 12:03 AM #

    JV will make the game winning play to put us in the final 4. Mark it, dudes.

    Great win… GO JACKETS!

    Re the Holes: Is the tiebreaker overall record if we end up tied in the ACC with split games?

  17. Wufpacker 02/20/2013 at 12:03 AM #

    “One last word on JV. He is still here and has never complained.”

    What’s he got to complain about? And why would he leave for that matter? Dude’s getting an education, free food (and I bet he eats a lot) and he doesn’t have to fight kangaroos for beer money as long as he stays.

    I feel almost like I should have a cigarette after watching that. Definitely that good.

    Or I’m just so old that’s how out of whack my pleasure scale has become. F-ck if I know.

    Go Canes and Bees!!

  19. BJD95 02/20/2013 at 12:07 AM #

    No, it goes down the list of who has best record vs. #1, #2, etc. As long as they don’t beat Duke, we will have tiebreaker regardless.

    If they do beat us and Duke, Holes should get it due to beating UVA once.

    “maybe the best single game performance since the Rodney Monroe days.”

    OK, I think you’re getting carried away here. Better than every performance from Gugs his senior year? Every performance by Hodge? Every performance by Grundy? By C.C. Harrison? How about Costner in the ACC tournament?

    That said, it was definitely a great performance.

    That’s my point. But yet so many others have bitched and complained and transferred and bitched and complained……

  22. WeAreCured 02/20/2013 at 12:12 AM #

    Good to know. I think UVA will end up in the five spot anyway.

  23. GoState91 02/20/2013 at 12:12 AM #

    Wow!!!! What an incredible game by TJ Warren!!!! 31 points and 13 rebounds!!!! The whole team came together tonight. I’ve waited all season to see this type of impressive performance. We played hard for 40 minutes. Hopefully we can carry this game to Chapel Hill on Saturday. Congratulations Pack!!!!

    Great win tonight. Now go Jackets!

    Much needed blowout, and we threw up a whole bunch of highlights for good measure. I still wish this was a team that took more pride in their defense, but at least they owned the glass in this game, so I’ll take it.
