The Pack (14-11, 3-9 ACC) travels to Winston-Salem today to take on Wake Forest (14-10, 5-7 ACC). Since the last time we lost to Wake 3 weeks ago we’ve managed to go 1-4, beating a then reeling Duke team; then falling the last four times out in succession. It’s been a difficult few weeks to […]
I first wrote about the Dance Card during the last year of the Herbble. As most people know, The Dance Card is the work of two college professors and self-proclaimed basketball junkies. They have attempted to reduce the Selection Committee process for awarding at-large bids to a mathematical formula (trying to hit the sweet point […]
The University of Miami is a good basketball team. The University of Miami is a good basketball team. The University of Miami is a good basketball team. The University of Miami is a good basketball team. The University of Miami is a good basketball team. The University of Miami is a good basketba……. Seriously […]
This is a completely serious question. During the recent college football season, a few star college football players decided to skip playing in bowl games to protect their draft status. Certainly a devastating injury in your final college game could severely hurt those players that have solidifed their draft status. While other players still needing […]
A month from tomorrow, the ACC Tournament will tip off in Brooklyn. I’m curious how good/bad the attendance will be. But with 15 teams, it shouldn’t be hard to fill the 17,700 seat Barclay Center. I suspect that reasoning along with the desire to spread the ACC’s influence all the way up the East Coast […]

OK, so the trip to Louisville wasn’t quite as fun as the trip to Durham. Meh…..It happens. Why did it happen this time? You saw it, what do you think? Effort, energy missing in NC State’s latest ‘lifeless’ ACC loss (NewsObserver.com) LOUISVILLE, Ky. There’s never a good time to question your team’s effort. It’s not […]
To be honest, not every team has played nine games, but most (including State) have and that’s close enough for me. This entry will be a little longer than normal while we discuss the things around the ACC that I find interesting and I’ll spend a little more time dissecting State’s schedule and performance than […]
That was fun. Really, really fun. Like seriously, winning is fun. Let’s do it some more. – Dennis Smith, Jr. Dude is sick. Really sad he’s not gonna be around next year. – Still Work To Be Done Yeah, the Duke win was great and all. But we dug ourselves a pretty big hole leading […]
(Photo from News & Observer’s web site) Last night might not turn the season around, but boy does it feel good for now. I was concerned that the team might give up after the WF debacle. But they clearly showed plenty of fight in coming back from a big deficit and then holding Duke off […]
