A month ago, we highlighted Clark Kellogg’s projected Sweet 16 for 2006.
If you visit Yahoo Sports’ College Basketball front page today, you will see a picture of Ilian Evtimov and Cedric Simmons and a mention that NC State may not have made Clark’s list, but the Pack is not off the radar.
I know that it is a novel concept for many…but, what a coincidence that the Pack starts to garner some national attention and respect after winning a couple of nice games against Alabama and Miami. The world isn’t really that complicated, is it?
Because of State’s shabby out of conference schedule, the Wolfpack is currently hovering in the mid-50s of the (too early to matter) RPI, but is holding nicely at #20 in the current Sagarin ratings. The schedule over the next couple of weeks provides the Pack the opportunity to set the table for a very nice season.
