Stat of the Day
Georgia Tech’s Athletic Season
A few weeks ago, we discussed NC State’s Athletics program’s position as #51 in the country and #9 in the ACC. The entry gots lot of talk on PackPride’s Message Boards.

Stat: Driving and Arriving
“Since the field expanded to 64 in 1985, only one team has started the season outside the AP top 20, been selected as a one-seed, and made the Final Four. The first two parts are not unusual. Washington was the 11th team in 21 years to get a one-seed without being in the preseason top […]

GASPing at straws
A friend called me about 8:20 or so this evening, heaving laughter. “You — heeheehee — You’re not going to believe what Herb just said on his show.” (I suppose at this point I should mention that I don’t listen to Sendek’s show, which I consider only marginally less entertaining than his offense and only […]

Sendek Record (Summarized)
Back in March of 2001, I put together a detailed page that focused on “Just The Facts” for the old Statefans.com (now PackPride.com).
