Why NC State can pull off the upset vs Duke — …and we play our best defense of the year… And they have to deal with some foul trouble to a key pl

Pack wins 84-82 on two FT’s by Cat with 0.5 seconds left.

We beat the Baptists yesterday.

Today it’s time to take care of the Methodists.

Tomorrow the Vatican!

We are set up for a divinely inspired run.

I think we hang with them for the 1st two minutes.

[MISTA WOLF]

71 – 58 Pack. Yes, I’ve been drinking.

[redisgood]

Nice. I’ll have what you’re having.

[MISTA WOLF]

Dos Equis Amber. Debating on hitting the moonshine in the freezer 🙂

I would bet everything I owned on the Devils, unless they plan to rest their starters (and 6th man) for the NCAAT.

[PackerInRussia]

I’d bet $100 of someone else’s money on the Pack. It just seems like a Pack thing to do (beat Duke today that is).

[BassPacker]

We all may need some of that “shine” Mista by halftime. I just don’t see Pack getting past Dook. As much as I hate see Pack loose, I hate to see the Cheats breeze into the finals. And if we beat Dook and then perhaps ND, then just too much to ask to see a tired short bench team like the Pack beat da Cheats. It will take some Devine Intervention either way.

Well, between Scotch and nothin’, I suppose I’d take Scotch. It’s the nearest thing to good moonshine I can find. –

I for one am really enjoying the Big East Tourney, Live from DC.

This match up begs for a 3-2 zone for the perimeter-oriented devil’s. I wouldn’t spring it on them until the 2nd half so k can’t attack it at the half.

[Wufpacker]

Jay Williams seems convinced we’re gonna throw a junk defense at them. Been saying it since yesterday.
I’ll be satisfied if we throw any defense at them.

[BJD95]

SIGH. I didn’t put any actual moneys where my mouth was.

[ncsu1987]

Nice start, but worried about fatigue in the 2nd half.

[BassPacker]

Too early to be second guessing bets !! If Abu stays aggressive and out of foul trouble, we beat Dook. Go Pack !

Smart feller. Not to be confused with a fart smeller.

[Wufpacker]

WTF was that call?

[BJD95]

This is maybe the worst defense we’ve played all season.

[Fastback68]

Not even in the same zip code when duke shoots a 3

[ncsu1987]

^Maybe, but Duke has hit a couple with hands in their face.

And I’m with Wuf, can’t believe that call for Mav’s 2nd. Was that Eades on that call? Mike’s usually better than that…

[BJD95]

And needless to say, the offensive performance by us is not remotely sustainable.

[Wufpacker]

KH knocks down 2….like a boss!!!

[ncsu1987]

Ingram is a tough matchup for Abu.

EDIT: BTW what is this defense called? 3-2 stand-around?

[Wufpacker]

A very soft 2-3 zone.
Yeah, that’ll work against Duke.

[Wufpacker]

Oh hell…if Ingram is out this might get interesting.
