NC State 74 Michigan 67 – Media/Blog Comments (10am)
The N&O calls it a “big win” in their ACC Now Blog. But, more impressively the N&O rose to the opportunity to defend truth and some common-sense in their comments. We were at the game and didn’t have the “joy” of hearing ESPN’s commentors, but evidently they were quite an act. Their comments got their […]
Positive Basketball Vibes/Michigan Live Blogging
I don’t really have time for it, but what the hell – I think I’ll try to live blog the Michigan game tonight. How will Sidney Lowe and his Iron Five handle their first true test? I expect us to play with lots of emotion tonight, and hopefully feed off the crowd. We have absolutely […]
NC State 88, Gardner Webb 76

Don’t feed the Dogs under the table this Thanksgiving

If fleeing the scene of the feast is possible and you live near the RBC Center in Raleigh, NC then I suggest checking out Friday night’s game against Gardner-Webb. Good tickets should be available due to the holidays, and now might be […]
Don’t Forget… (VTPackfan’s Preview Added 5:15)
There is a basketball game tonight. I will be there, as will Jeff. Feel free to use this as a game thread. I will have my blackberry, and might post in the comments from the arena. I am nervous Delaware State could beat us – they are supposedly in contention in the MEAC, and the […]
A View from the Cheap Seats
SFN Note: SFN welcomes a new author to the stable today. LRM actually helped contribute to the original Statefans.com back in 2002 and 2003 and has re-attached to our new blog team here at StateFansNation.

OTR: Lowe Era Begins Tonight With “5 Pack”
