Ah springtime, when a young man’s fancy turns to… ….BASEBALL!!! With apologies to Alfred (Lord Tennyson that is…not Bruce Wayne’s manservant), love is overrated. On a weekend that started with the crowd shivering through a would be pitcher’s duel on Friday, and ended with sweating and sunburned Wolfpack faithful cheering the long ball on Saturday […]
Last Look at the Bubble
The goal of our last look at the Bubble is to outline the goals that the different teams should have for the ACCT…whether that goal is just making the NCAAT or to improve the seeding. I don’t expect there to be a lot of controversy, but there are still some interesting tidbits to discuss for […]
2015 ACC Tournament Preview
Firstly, a hearty congratulations to SFN favorite Beejay “King Hippo” Anya on being named the ACC’s Sixth Man of the Year, and First Team all-defense. Not bad for a guy who doesn’t play 20 mpg, right? Quality, not quantity. And the jolly giant sure as hell changes the game when he enters. Secondly, kudos to […]
Game talk – State sends Syracuse home (again) [Updated for highlights]
NC State ended Syracuse’s ACC season in 2014 by defeating the Orange in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals in the Friday night session in Greensboro. So, it was fitting that the Wolfpack send the Orange home for the year with a loss again in 2015 as the Pack pulled away behind a 27-2 run and all […]

Friday’s NC State Campus Insiders Report
We always appreciate the coverage from our partners at USA Today! One item that got lost in editing was the crux of the point being made in “NCAA Positioning”. The top 100 “win” on “Wednesday night” was not an NC State win. It was Tennessee’s win over LSU that moved the Vols into the Top […]
A week of high Wolfpack highlights!
Men’s Swimming & Diving I really hope that you saw the great news earlier in the week that NC State’s historically DOMINANT Men’s Swimming program has gotten back to the top of the mountain. SFN’s coverage is linked here and the following is a nice video from the ACC Digital Network summarizing the event. […]
Baseball Update
With Clemson arriving in town this weekend to kick off both teams’ conference schedule, it seemed like a good time to do a very quick and very superficial review of the Pack9’s season thus far. I’ll talk a (very) little bit about Clemson toward the end, but for various reasons there will be no full […]
Are you ready to win a title? (Part II)
In Part I we discussed what it takes to be a National Champion and what they all have in common. If you missed the article then I highly suggest going back and reading it before proceeding with Part II. The next question that came to mind after figuring out the make-up of a National Champion […]
State beats Clemson 66-61
It was an ugly must-win that we’ll all gladly take. State pulled away with a 25-3 run over a 13:24 stretch in the second half where Clemson was 0-for-15 from the floor. That was a good thing, too, because State’s poor shooting from the floor (37%), and dreadful shooting from the free throw line (72%), […]
