Yeah, it’s just for the right to get massacred by Louisville, but the Aggies and Fightin’ Falwells are putting on a pretty entertaining offensive show. Plus mystery teams Middle TN and St. Mary’s later tonight! Hey, it still beats the NIT (Robert Morris spanking KY is pretty funny though).
Congratulations, Miami
All week long, there was a pitched battle to see who could shovel the most dirt on Miami’s grave. With losses at Wake and at freaking home to freaking Georgia Tech…people assumed this team had just peaked too soon. But it turns out, the Canes just had their lull at exactly the right time. And […]
2013 ACC Tournament Preview
This has been a long, strange trip through ACC play this year. My picks are notoriously pretty bad, and should clearly not be used for gambling purposes. But read on anyway: 1. Miami Realistic Chance to Win? Absolutely. Yes, they looked much more beatable down the stretch. Hunter instead of the hunted, and all that. […]
2012-13 BJD/SFN All-ACC Selections
I do this every year, and despite my general malaise, am back for more: Coach of the Year: Jim Larranaga, Miami This selection can be explained by one word – duh. But as you know, I like to run my big mouth. Before the season started, I consistently said that I expected someone other than […]
MD/UVA Special Edition LiveBlog
An e-mail from one of my very favorite Wolfpackers got me thinking. How will NC State react to yesterday’s lost sumo wrestling match? I think it all depends on today. A Terp win, and we can sell it as a reprieve, a second chance with a more favorable ACCT seed than if we had won. […]
Pack Loses Thursday Off, ACC Loses Last Shred of Credibility
In the most incompetently officiated game I have ever seen, on any level…NC State falls to the 5th seed and 11-7. Anyone who doesn’t want to leave this bullshit joke of a conference needs their head examined.
Hole-mageddon Post-Game Semi-Rational Discussion
Yes, that sucked. We went into Chapel Hill, played poorly to start…then clawed our way back to a small lead with all the momentum in the world. Then we crapped the bed down the stretch on the way to a blowout loss. A B+ effort by the Pack wins that game easily…and we didn’t even […]
Hopeless Gallows Humor Open Game Thread
The last pessimistic game thread title I penned was before the FSU game last fall. So if by some miracle we win…you’re welcome.
Hoos in Hooville LiveBlog
Because we need extra good mojo due to Calvin’s sickness. And because we’ve already lost a “should win” game (Wake), and we need to win a “should lose” (tonight, NITish opponent that presents matchup problems on the road) to restore balance and harmony in the universe. Join me, won’t you? Perhaps it will even be […]
Pack/Holes Semi-Live Blog
I can’t commit to a full one, because I am sick, and also sick of being sick. So grumpier and more brain-dead than usual, which are two very sad things. So keep things going strong in the comments. Simply put…tonight is a must win. We absolutely cannot lose tonight after the embarrassing loss to a […]
