    State has a big one tonight at Miami (8pm on WRAL in Raleigh)! NC State sits #38 in the RPI having played 6th toughest schedule in America. A ROAD win

    This is the kind of “season making”, “pivotal” or “RPI critical” (pick your description) game that we normally blow. Winning games like this one, and the ND game, would make us much more comfortable on Selection Sunday.

    Unfortunately, that does not seem to be our destiny as Wolfpack fans.

    We have the sixth most difficult schedule up to this point and I’m wondering when its supposed to let up. It seems eerily like moving day in golf. We will find out who’s who in the ACC during the next week or so. Beat Miami and ND and that shows our boys are learning and the game and its starting to come to them because those are pretty good squads coming up.

    Fork in the road. Win the next two and State remains in the top five seeds with multiple, crucial tiebreakers over Duke, Pitt, FSU, Miami? and ND? Lose two and you must get past Clemson, WFU, and GT to get to the next fork. Long season ahead.

    Pardon my french. My cable went out yesterday and the next available appt time is Saturday morning between 9-1. As a result, it will probably be the best tv game of the year with State winning in OT. So, F— Time Warner, F— Miami and F— the entire state of Florida.

    Go Pack.

    As long as your high-speed internet isn’t also out, you should be able to get a decent quality stream on theacc.com, since it’s a Raycom game. Good luck!

    Agreed with your take on the entire state of Florida. Long and hard may it be f-ed.

    Hey guys, I found a totes new wolven song for this game! From a cool black hipster band (TV On the Radio), no less!!

    I love the tough schedule. We are winning plenty, tempering our steel in fire, and our RPI just keeps rising. Through maybe our toughest sextet of the ACC slate, we are 4-2 and mathematically on course for that magic 12-6 mark.

    Feel good that we will make a good showing tonight. If not, I have wine. And Tussionex.

    Tonight is the same game as the last one in Tallahassee…

    Strength on Strength… in the paint and on the perimeter…

    We should ‘expect’ the same type of game and the same results…

    Methinks Miami’s guards are a little better and their bigs a little worse, or at least a little smaller and less numerous.

    Fewer bigs for sure, but Jekiri has taken a giant leap forward this year. He is going to be a handful. And Ivan Uceda is now back from being ineligible, and they will be working him in as well.

    It would be so Packish to lose tonight and beat ND. I suppose I would take that.

    Comrade BJD95vinski, what is up with the serious hard-on for the State of Floridistan? We are good comrades down here, that work our shovel-ready jobs everyday without a complaint, and adhere to the party line at all times. We keep the Party’s agriculture equipment and collective farms running 24 hours a day so that the People may have an abundance of beets, potatoes, and ultimately, vodka to nourish their bodies and Party-loving minds. Perhaps a show trial looms in your future for denouncing the great Floridistan Oblast, and its wealth of Party-patriotic proles. I denounce you for denouncing your fellow comrades who endlessly toil for the Party’s sake and for the sake of next Tuesday. Perhaps a trip to the Engel’s Treatment Center awaits you.

    I’m wading up the street here in Chi-town to the local sports bar to avoid the internets in the hotel. We get so few games actually on TV in Texas that you’ll have to forgive my lack of tears.

    While this is not a must win, it would certainly get us started down an easier path. I think 2-1 against UM, ND, and ‘Cuse would have us pretty relaxed on Selection Sunday. This will not be easy.

    Thanks BJD, I will have my tech kids get to work on it. I used to love Fort Myers, Florida for that is where my in-laws used to reside. Then my 600 mile buffer dwindled down to 2.6 miles when they moved. Ever since then, party line – nothing good comes out of Florida.

    Jai Lai, Greyhounds and Ponies.

    Well turned derriers, and French Poodles.

    Pink Houses and Panama hats. White shoes and white belts.

    Honduran cigars and Virgin Island rum.

    Haitian Voodoo Queens and Puerto Rican T-girls.

    Something for everyone.

    Cigar City Brewing Company, citrus, St. Augustine, Ponte Vedra golf course, Grapefruit League baseball, my father (but not my step-mother) and the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor City. Other than that, Florida can wash away into the sea.

    Does anyone have a link to the game?

    I am traveling and the local affiliate is not carrying it. Blacked out on WatchESPN since I am in the network area.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Someone forget to tell him he’s not a scorer.

    Disney is my personal version of hell, so FL is just bugs and rude people to this po’ Southern lad.

    I like my buffalo jerky with red wine. ALL CLASS
