Pack Tops Deacs, 81-66
Wolfpack Basketball kept things rolling toward the post-season tonight as they dispatched Wake Forest 81-66 in Raleigh on Senior Night. The win moves the Pack to 22-8 (11-6) for the season. Elsewhere, Carolina beat UMd in Chapel Hill (thanks a lot Terps…really gonna miss ya next year). And in a game that just went final, […]
State 3-0, atop ACC
The media acts surprised by this. Never mind it was that same media — not State fans — that over-hyped this State team in the preseason and then just as quickly soured on us after we were blown out by Oklahoma State in Puerto Rico in mid-November and then over-matched on the road against the […]
Next up: Puerto Rico
The Pack basketball team leaves today for the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico, land of plantains and rum. You can see the bracket here. Andy Katz has some initial thoughts on the tournament (ESPN): Initial thoughts: NC State is hardly a lock to win this event. The Wolfpack will be getting all the preseason praise […]
No Sleep ’til Atlanta
Quacko decided it was best for us to move across the aisle to some empty seats, partly for more legroom but mostly because the Jayhawks around us would soon become very annoyed. It was his fault we were even in St. Louis, and we both knew as we worked out the plans, only minutes after […]

And now today, with […]

To State, This ACCT Matters
So, with damaging losses to Clemson, Georgia Tech and Stanford, and without any resume-building wins, and after one of the least entertaining regular seasons in ACC history, and with Thursday’s slate of rematches poised to be completely unwatchable, here we are: to State, this ACC Tournament very much matters. After the loss at Clemson, our […]
Jimmy V Week
This was originally posted by LRM three years ago (Laugh. Think. Cry.), but seems fitting to post again during Jimmy V week, especially the for the younger fans that may not realize there was once a time when State basketball was anything but an afterthought. V himself had said that team wasn’t very good. After […]
