In case you’re wondering, my Minion pic has nothing to do with anyone here at SFN. The fact that a 15 min drive home after lunch took almost an hour should explain it. Oh and I forgot to mention…there was less than ½ inch of snow on the ground at that time. So for everyone […]
Everyone says their goal is to “Win It All Baby!!” but do they really have a team that can have their One Shining Moment? This will be a 3 Part Series taking a look at what all National Championship Teams have in common between 2002 and 2014. Is it talent level? What about the systems […]
NC State currently sits at #50 in the RPI having played the 4th toughest schedule in America. State has won seven games against the Top 100 and 3 games against the Top 50. State’s only loss against a team ranked outside the Top 100 was on the road at Wake Forest.
State played its way back onto the bubble with a big 74-65 must-win at 9th-ranked Louisville today. Barber led all scorers with 21, Lacey added 14 and Anya had three blocks. This was the type of game State had struggled to finish against Notre Dame and Virginia. State has a week to prepare for Virginia […]
Comrade 76 and Lenin Cat are out serving the proletariat, so it’s up to me to pseudo-preview today’s beating. The Cards are somewhat challenged offensively, at least based on what I saw last weekend in Hooville (a game that also lacked the injured Justin Anderson, for the most part). So it surprised me to see […]
In typical arrogant-elitist fashion — this behavior long ago stopped being “stunning” — UNC AD Bubba Cunningham, aka “Flagship Bubba” (TM), actually attempted a passive-aggressive chastising of Duke AD Kevin White for White’s handling of the extensive $27,170.44 spray paint defacement done by Carolina football players — keep in mind this damage was done under […]
Well…almost. As if February and ACC basketball weren’t already unsettling enough for the NCSU faithful, along comes baseball. For those unaware, the Pack’s 2015 baseball season gets underway this weekend as they welcome the trio of Villanova(16-34 (5-13), t6th Big East), Davidson(29-19 (17-8), 2nd SoCon) and App State(21-34 (12-14), t5th SoCon) to Raleigh for an […]

I think we need to start an on-line petition to turn Monday back into “Big Monday” and move the mid-week ACC games back to the Tue through Thurs spot. All of these Monday games play heck with the timeliness of my weekly reviews. Once again the RPI and Dance Card info covers through Sunday’s games […]
State’s basketball team has a week off and we’re at just past the halfway point of the ACC season so there have already been a couple of great entries here at SFN looking at the state of the basketball program (no pun intended) like the ACC Mid-Season Review, Calling Dr Heimlich and The rest of […]
