NC State dropped to 11-9 overall and 1-6 in the ACC in the season that we are choosing to write off as the Mark Gottfried has earned after two Sweet 16s as a part of four consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances. The Wolfpack led by 10 points in the first half and took a seven point […]

Snowbound ACC Basketball Update
Well I trust that all our readers in the mid-Atlantic region have stocked up on their essential provisions for the blizzard of 2016. For the first time in the nearly 30 years that I’ve lived in VA, my company closed all operations the day before the first flake even hit the pavement. So I have […]
Abdul Malik-Abu knows how to dunk!
State dominates on road at #20 Pitt, 78-61
Who saw that coming? Well, not as many fans as usually might see it because WRAL-TV5 is off the air on DirecTV! RRRRRGGGGGGGGGGG You don’t believe that #NCStateShit exists?

And although the scores were relatively close, a loss is still a loss. The game tonight against FSU is big for the Wolfpack, […]
Weekly ACC Basketball Update
Photo from The Daily Herald I started to say, “at least the Seahawks won”…but it would be more accurate to say that the Vikings lost. Luckily, there’s already a recap of the Wake Forest game up so I feel no need to pour salt into any open wounds. So let’s start the weekly roundup […]
State in the cellar
Pack falls to 0-3 in the ACC in what is becoming an atrocious year. For the first time in his tenure, Gottfried has as team who is as bad on offense as is bad has his defense. We just play bad basketball. Period. It is all about stopping the bleeding at this point. While lowly […]
