Time: 1:00 TV: ESPN2 Announcers: Dave O’Brien, Doris Burke First the bad news: NC State head coach Mark Gottfried said after Friday’s practice that he
[See the full post at: NC STATE at NORTH CAROLINA Preview]“Tokoto is going to have his hands full Saturday.”
^False. Even if it looks like Buckets will be all Buckets-y, he’ll quickly be on the bench in foul trouble (against the offensive juggernaut that is Tokoto). Warren will probably play under 30 minutes and have around 12 points. Then we get to hear about how the Holes + Tokoto ‘shut him down’.
In my dream world – aka non-reality – Warren would be allowed to play basketball and get a fair shot at being aggressive on offense and defense (you know, like he usually is). Even knowing ahead what’s gonna happen it’ll still suck viewing multiple unx*espn camera glances at Warren sitting forlornly on the bench during game action.
I ran the last 22 miles of a marathon on a torn meniscus, so a bruise won’t keep Anya off of the floor today. UNC-CH has been playing better which is what really bothers me about the match up. A win today and we will set ourselves up for a couple of weeks of bubble talk at the very least.
Prediction Moos 77 Blues 73
TexPack – you crazy. That meniscus shit hurts just sitting and watching TV.
I suggest we all get the Vaseline out now so it doesn’t hurt quite as bad.
I am in a Tribe Called Quest mood today, that’s my only positive:
And holy shit, back in Ol’ Roy’s day, there were NC State fans…in ASHEVILLE?? Where did they all go?
Anya, give us five bone crushing fouls and maybe whoever coined the KH nickname will switch it to Shaft. Seriously hope the big guy is okay.
Every team can have a bad day. Here is hoping the holes have one today. And that Tyler keeps the team under control, with his leadership on the court. And just maybe. Miracles do happen!
Gloom And Doom
I dread this game every year. I don’t see this State team as being the one to break the string, as much as I love them.Let’s just keep it within 20, no more 30 point massacres. And hope nobody gets hurt. We need the WF game.
In the interest of Super Bowl weekend preliminaries, here’s one from a few years back of Peyton Manning taking an active interest in the well-being of today’s youth, courtesy of SNL….
Well Jigawatts that seems to be a perfect description of whats going to happen with the foul situation. And it does seem to happen that way. Is that a tongue in cheek Wolfpack paranoia description or a serious comment on what State has to endure on the road in the ACC?
If its the latter, & it’s that obvious, how does the Commish and his head of officiating keep allowing that with a straight face? All I can think about is the debacle at Duke a couple of years ago where the huge lead vanished as our players did too.
Much like the Duke game at Cameron, I’m expecting the worst while hoping for anything but that.
Glad to hear Anya’s knee is a bruise and not a ligament.
Oh contrare.. Mr. Dog.
You GOTT to go with wulfpup76 and me…
and the ghosts on the south smoking porch confirm….class of 76 is all in….
+1 on PACK plus five…
if for no other reason… BECAUSE that’s how many guys fit in the VANDWAGON……. and I’m thinking that the SENIOR knows what to do in his last game in the HOLE… and will commmunicate the same quite effectively to our rookies…. both on an off the court….
VANDWAGON gets a double double TODAY !!!
LEWIS has his third good game in a row…
CAT on 3,4 or 5 is SEEN but only in the right places at the right times…. with a 60% scoring ratio….
CUZ gets his twenty but otherwise is not a major factor in the outcome….
DEZ, WASHINGTON, FREEMAN && ANYA hold their own….
REFS not a factor… fouls evenly distributed…. as two of the holes see limited playing time… in a tightly officiated contestGOTT & Company coach a smart game…
UNCLE ROY announces after the game that he’s RETIRING at the end of the season.
