WulfpackParticipant
So strange Jigawatts. NDSU finished up on Tuesday and won the Summit. So why would they be listed as a new team in? But, they aren’t listed elsewhere in the field, so that worries me. Another site has us in according to Decock’s article. We are so close.
WulfpackParticipantCoach K with some kind words about us:
“They got it going,” Krzyzewski said. “They’re a tough out, man. They’re a tough out. They’d be a tough out. I wouldn’t want to play them.”
He told Gott he hopes we get in, and he’s been lobbying for us, FSU and Clemson.

WulfpackParticipantYea they haven’t updated that part yet but we are in.
WulfpackParticipantLunardi just put us in as a 12 seed!
WulfpackParticipantI fully understand all of that. But it would have likely extended our season and given us a chance to play for it all. Who knows what would have went down. I knew when Duke escaped last night our chances were slim. They’re good, and they showed it today.
WulfpackParticipantGuessing we will be a 2 seed. Should give us two games at Reynolds.
I am not one that normally cares for this tournament either, but I have enjoyed watching this TEAM play, and they deserve to play more ball. Maybe Warren will go out and get 50 one night. He has been an absolute pleasure to watch, and I will watch more. We’ll be a favorite to win this thing, no question.
WulfpackParticipantIt’s been way too long since the ’87 ACC title.
Thought the same thing today. We are inching toward 30 years. 30 freaking years. In just the past couple we’ve seen FSU, Miami and now UVA find success. It really makes you wonder.
WulfpackParticipantWe probably should have been playing Clemson today. And that would have given us a much better chance at meeting UVA in the finals. Crazy stuff. Don’t know how they missed that one. The explanation is sorry as well.
WulfpackParticipantOne Loss become Two Losses (the Hangover Effect).
The Miami and Clemson losses hurt. We got blown out in both. It is understandable following the devestating losses to Cuse and UNC. Had we won one of those (Cuse or UNC) I think we are in. Sucks.
WulfpackParticipantWe couldn’t stop them all day, man or zone. Parker was firing. As was Hood. And Sulaiman was breaking us down. Just too many scorers. We went cold a few minutes and that’s when they made the run. They never looked back. I’m just not sure what else we could have done. Sometimes you just tip your cap. Wasn’t our day.
WulfpackParticipantI will be picking UVA to beat Duke tomorrow. There is something very special about this team. They are rock solid.
WulfpackParticipantAnd eye test indicates we should be in, but we all know that’s not how it works.
WulfpackParticipantWe’re out.
Good effort. Just ran out of gas in the second half. We had no answer for all the weapons Duke has, and they shut Warren down during the decisive run. Still a solid showing in the tourney. Guys played hard but we fell a little short. Nothing to be ashamed of.
WulfpackParticipantLost me, Rick.
WulfpackParticipantThe refs being scared of K does not explain why espn would not show the full replay.
WulfpackParticipantI saw your photo and that was clearly a foul. As others are saying, no idea why that was not shown last night.
WulfpackParticipantOh yes that is definitely a foul. Replays did not show that. At least not the one I saw.
WulfpackParticipantThat’s not what was shown on the replay last night right after the play. I will try to find. Was this before the fall? Because when he fell there was clearly space between he and the two Duke players. Now what caused the fall. Maybe they didn’t show that. But the announcers and studio guys appeared to agree with the no call.
WulfpackParticipantIt certainly looked like a foul in real time. Replays, however show zero contact from a Dookie. It was all Hall out of control trying to sell it.
WulfpackParticipantWe can argue with Lunardi all we want, but his track record is extremely solid. If he misses, it is never by much. We all know we must win today. We said that coming in and it remains so now.
WulfpackParticipantClemson gets hacked like mad no call
Replays show no contact at all on Hall. Good no call.
WulfpackParticipantThat was actually a fine no call. Replays show no contact whatsoever. Hall just lost it – out of control. Announcers said the same.
We gotta go get this one.
WulfpackParticipantI’m just not sure a win over Duke moves us up 7 spots. Maybe five. Maybe six. But we will certainly be sweating Sunday evening. Love this time of year.

WulfpackParticipantIs it all about the RPI? It would be hard to believe though that a team that beat Pitt, Cuse and Duke down the stretch doesn’t get in. That is some serious work.
