How SWEET it is!!!

NC State knocks of #1 seeded Villanova in Pittsburgh.

Mark Gottfried takes State to our 2nd Sweet 16 in the last four years.

I guess if we have to wear those uniforms then we should get some credit for it:

    Let’s review…

    Pack took the lead 9-7 with a layup by CAT3.0 at 12:34 in the first half…

    AND NEVER TRAILED…

    What I love about this win: 1) Ralston sticking with it despite not scoring the ball; and 2) Lennard contributing offensively. Frenchie took a BIG step tonight. Proud of em all. Abu, Dez, Cat, even Caleb for knocking down that 3.

    What a game! Incredible defensive effort!!
    Most coaches shorten the bench at tourney time, Gott back to playing nine.
    So happy for the bigs – playing so well!
    As Gott said in the post game, they guarded RT really well.
    Dez was huge.

    Best game in can remember in a looking time.

    Great season!!!!!!!!

    What I liked – eyes up, not settling for the three but taking it when it’s there, and finding the bigs. The template for the future.

    Obama picked Nova in his bracket, that’s all.

    All in fun.

    This was a TEAM victory. Impressive DEFENSE! Darn good offense. Nova made the late run as expected from a really good team but the Pack survived.

    I’ve been a pretty big critic of his all season, but you can’t say enough good things about how Kyle Washington has come in and given great minutes these two games. It would’ve been so easy for him to sulk when his minutes got cut, or be mad that he didn’t get more minutes after playing well on Thursday, but he just comes in and plays his butt off when we need him. Really impressed with his attitude.

    I believe about 85% of America had Nova advancing.

    Great game plan and team showed a LOT of GUTS-never flustered even after Nova threw in those two bomb threes late. The Pack is growing up and the process continues…

    Cat’s full statement (it WAS bracketology-related) was “The fuck wrong with Barack Obama?”

    LMFAO, we have to win it all now, right? Just so we get to have that meeting on the South Lawn?

    I almost don’t even care that the Holes are gonna (predictably) win. ALMOST.

    Watching Butler/ND. Given how hard the Irish peeps rooted for us, I almost find myself pulling for them.

    Again, ALMOST.

    Yes, absolutely – I have to pull for them. There was tiny little Irish fan right behind our bench that kept doing the ‘wolfie’ signal.

    I don’t ordinarily drink following a Wolfpack win but when I do, it’s Bombay Dry Gin!!! GO PACK.
    By the way, my bracket has the Pack advancing beyond the sweet 16!!!
