NC State will kick-off in Chapel Hill on November 29th against rival, UNC-Cheats at 12:30pm in a game that will be televised on the ACC Network.

I don’t see them as a top 4 come tomorrow night but that can certainly change. Bama could lose to Aubie or the SEC Championship game. Oregon could lose. FSU could certainly lose to Florida or Georgia Tech. Still a long way to go.

What was the name of the GatorHole coach who signed on, then went over to Tampa, before he ever had the first practice?
We shall see…

Duke will pay
or the Gators will.11/17/2014 at 8:43 PM #61765lawfulParticipantColor me unimpressed. At least we’re not playing someone difficult, like Davidson.
11/17/2014 at 8:51 PM #61769lawfulParticipantLet’s see, we didn’t play D, didn’t shoot free throws, let everybody in the 27606 area code have an open look. Didn’t execute, didn’t move the ball against the zone, didn’t finish. Couldn’t control the boards. Poor shot selection. How many balls did we throw back in bounds under their basket? Abu is a three point shooter? Lacy took more shots than Kobe.
11/17/2014 at 8:54 PM #61770lawfulParticipantWhat’s our Pomeroy rating, 60ish? That’s about right.

In other words, it was the second game of the year, with a team playing a lot of freshmen players who were finding out for the first time that the college game is a step up.
By all means, write off the first half, when the game was won, and expect a February-polished team with a kid playing his second competitive game in two years, others fresh out of Oak Hill and Brewster and sophomores that played second fiddle to Tony Buckets last year.
Yes, the Pack has a way to go. But let’s look at the bright side: they kept their poise when they were struggling (with the exception of one of the Martin twins, I forget which) and they found a way to win right at the predicted points spread. Hofstra is no UNC or Duke, no, but they are expected to be a pretty decent squad this season and tonight’s “ugly” win will likely go down as a “good win” when the Committee starts looking at resumes in March.

^Caleb, whom I *think* will be a key reserve by the end of the season (5-10 min / game).
We are deep, so the more aggressive the better.
