I hate to say it, and it makes me mad as hell to do so. But 2007-08 must be written off as a “learning year” for Sidney Lowe. Despite being an ACC school with all the institutional infrastructure needed to win, NC State is employing yet another head coach who has to learn on the […]

Some quick basketball comments of interest: * Due to the performance of some of our opponents, NC State has crept to #37 in the RPI having played the 27th toughest schedule in America.

Doing the Math (The Path to 8 ACC Wins)
Let the people rejoice – State beat the castrated turkeys once again, to get back to .500 in the ACC. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the second half of the conference schedule is even more difficult. NC State will likely only be favored in one game (home vs. FSU). But all […]

Big Ben Beats The Clock (NC State 67, Wake 65)
Video Highlights | Box Score | Recap| Photos| Take THAT ghost of Chris Paul and the decade where NC State couldn’t win a close game if our life depended on it! BEFORE the last play of the game, I had already written the following for the postgame entry – Player of the game – Ben […]
Wake Forest Game Entry; N&O – Pack Lacks Identity
Halftime Update: Wake 31 State 24 * Simple reason why NC State is not winning this game – SHOOTING. It’s not just that State only hit 2 of 11 three pointers (both by Courtney Fells. It is that State missed/bricked multiple WIDE OPEN threes – at least three of which were from the top of […]
