I to think an early season loss can help later down the road. I also think if they play with quite aggressiveness they can win this game. The Pack will want to run and they should at times but they have to be able score out of the half court set. They are not as experienced to a running game like UNC. We saw that against Creighton. They also need to keep UNC off the defensive glass. If they do these things I think they will win. Pack by 7.
I’m more disappointed with his loss of control on the bench versus the trip. That kid has anger issues. That alone should have been two more games.
Don’t like the tone but it’s one persons opinion. They don’t have more talent. It’s even in my opinion.

You can’t be that mad. Lol.
Basil Hayden on the rocks. Trying to figure out how to beat a weatherman for all this uproar over nothing. Got my son this weekend so I am hoping to take him over to some hills near NCSU for some real sledding. Also a good one off Ridge road.
I figured as much. We shall see how the season plays out. BTW, four bowl movements a day is great for a man of your age. ?
Copenhagen or Skoal? I have gone back and forth but have to say Copenhagen fine cut is the best.
Ok I’m in. I will even give you a chance to adjust the record since you don’t have a clue of how many conference games the Pack will play. Give me a corrected guess and I will gladly put $50 if it somewhat correlates to the original proclamation.
I also want something in return. I don’t want your $$. Really don’t need it. If I win you have to proclaim that your knowledge on NCSU sports is non existent. That you will stop making bombastic statements just to troll people. You will not post on anything sports related unless it’s insightful and has some validity. None of these comments where you let us know what you are about to drink or eat for dinner. Ok, no posting for two weeks. That’s the only way to be sure there are no grey areas. The last two sentences is the agreement. This will be acknowledged by you by starting a thread that acknowledges the above. This will begin just after the record surpasses what you predicted. The thread will state “I know nothing and most people don’t care what I do”.
If you win I will start a thread that says you are all knowing and I paid you $50 bucks for your advanced knowledge.
Are you in?
5-11 in conference
Takers?

I’ll take it. Name your price.
Duke’s Allen suspended for one game. That is an absolute joke. Should have been three games minimum.
UNC and Duke losing in second half. If that continues (which I hope it does) that is the first time I can remember they both lost on the same day in conference play. Both opening ACC games for both as well I think.
The cupcake phase of the season is over. No more small schools to beat up at home. I’ve been to most of the home games so far, and there are some encouraging signs. But……….ACC play is upon us, and first up is a road game vs a team that is our equal but with a superior coach. That hasn’t worked very well in the past, but you play ’em anyway.
And as far as no Rider headlines in Thursday’s paper, I got no write-up in the N&O that day either, nor did I get a write-up in today’s paper, just a box score. It’s a sorry paper indeed that can’t even get an NCSU score, let alone a write-up, in next-day’s edition, on a game that ended at 9pm. And I don’t live 150 miles away on the beach; my house is in Raleigh, almost within walking distance of the locations where the paper is published and printed.
The N&O is one sorry piece of crap, all commentary and NO news if it happened after 6pm the previous day. So much for improved technology. But there’s plenty of print space to worship and adore their favorite Muslim.
I think your white sheet is riding up your crack. Try going online getting the information you need. The days the N&O was worth reading was 30 plus years ago.
The thing that stood out to me last night was the ES&D stares that the Turk laid on the opposition. I’m guessing playing up in age group across the pond he was tested. He’s Theodore Cleaver in appearance but he definitely has a Conrad Dobler streak. Perfect score on the SAT Math. He could probably be an Adjunct Professor in Orange County
I’ll be looking to see if Smith has really improved or the competition was just a lot weaker. I lean towards real improvement because his decision making / IQ has looked a lot stronger. I put the over/under on Kapita’s first technical foul at four road games.
I was glad to read that there was an issue that had Johnson sitting out last night. I thought Gott might have decided to shorten his rotation and leave MJ out.
I hope Rowan understands why his role is going to be reduced so much this year. Henderson and Dorn are just too solid for him to play dominant minutes unless we have foul issues.
Abu’s improvement with the catch and shoot elbow jumper appears to be real. Our ability to play any two man combo of Yurt, Abu, and Kapita at FT time will untie a lot of stomach knots.
If we show well we will get a pass for losing to Illinois due to missing players
Rowan had 21 minutes last night. Only two off the max of 23 I think. With the depth they have minutes will depend on how they are playing in that game with the match ups they have. Just because Mav hasn’t started doesn’t mean he wont get minutes. I will admit I am Mav apologist. I think he has a steady game that can’t be quantified.
Go…Not sure how this fits into your rant, but we are at #38 in the RPI. Rider is at #172, so this W will not do much to move the needle. Miami is at #69, so that will be an opportunity for a 51-100 win. Let the real games begin…
My point is if we are #38 in RPI how are we in the last eight out? That’s just not possible. He doesn’t say if his bracket is based on the tournament starting today or was projecting what would happen in March. I’m guessing the latter. Still hard to think this team will not make it. It’s just a question of how far can they go.
Anyway you are right, the real fun starts this Saturday against Miami.
If you work for a network who’s acronym is 6 damn letters just shut the f*ck up. First four out, eat a d***
I may have misspoke they are not in the first four out they are in the next four out. That means the last of eight teams outside looking in. Really?
Micheal Beller (of CNNSI) has the Pack as the next four out in the way, way too early to worry about bracket of 64.
Still that irks the sh*t out of me because are they not in the top 45 RPI. Completely clueless troll.
