Time: 2:00 pm TV: RSN (FOX Sports South) Announcers: Wes Durham, Dave Odom Jim Larranaga doesn’t have the horses that he had last year to keep up the
[See the full post at: NC STATE at MIAMI Preview]Really need this one, and I think we have a good shot … Going to be very difficult to get a win though – it’s at their place and they are the antithesis of what State attempts to accomplish.
For the love of God, I hope we don’t come out flat. Keep our heads in it, make good decisions, maintain focus and I like our chances.
Seems the ideal game for TL to run the point. Cat Barber plays some of the worst PG offense versus zone defense that I have ever seen. Great upside to his game, he has just gone mental every time he sees the 2-3.
State is 0-5 when scoring less than 65 pts. Miami is holding everyone well below their average and not allowing anyone more than 70. They play zone the entire game. They slow the pace way down.
All of that adds up to a loss for State in my opinion.
PACK by double digits today….
CUZ gets his twenty… but so what….
The difference will come from the rest of our kids…. as they should not be distracted by the large, boisterous crowd courstside down in South Beach for this afternoon’s contest.
#NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!I think we will have the better talent on the court, but they’ve got the better guy in the suit. Zone defense the whole game? Could be a catastrophe.
The only thing that tips in our favor a little is they aren’t very good offensively, so far. So they probably won’t run away from us. Hence, KenPom’s 4 point tip of the hat to the U.
I think the game hinges on our ability to hit a few threes in both halves. And that is a tough situation to be in for our guys. The weakest aspect of our team.
We really, really need both Miami games.
Here was Miami’s first-half schedule
Top = SYR(x2), Duke, Pitt
In-between – @UNC, FSU
Middle= @UMD
Bottom – VT, @GTTheir home loss to VT in Dec approaches inexcusable, but that’s a tough schedule.
Naturally, fucking VPI at Pitt somehow manages to go to OT. Screwing us out of TV coverage. Only at NC State, folks…
So Pitt is this year’s Clemson? Inflate win total through Jan with easy schedule and then completely fall apart?
Looks like it. To even almost lose at home to a bunch of shit-eaters like VPI…
Second long-assed monitor review in last 5 seconds of this wrestling match.
OK… Where’s Rick…
We need somebody positive.. to balance all this negativity…
CUZ on the bench early with two fouls…
Tyler handling the point…
Remember …. we “MIGHT” be a better TEAM with CUZ on the bench….
We need to play good D and cutoff Miami’s ‘drivers’…. early.
#NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!5.5 minutes into the State game and we’ve already given up 12 points to Miami.
I sure do miss when we played Defense.

Yeah, I liked that Nate McMillan team a lot, too.
this is working here…
