(Updated) NCAA Day One Open Thread; Barnes vs Tubby in NC; Tubby emerges as UVA’s #1
Evening Sessions Maryland’s win over California today was really big for the conference. Gary Williams has now won his first round game in nine consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances. Wow!

N&O’s Joe Giglio: UNC finished the game with 21 attempts from the free-throw line (hitting 15), while VT finished 8 of 11. It’s not like VT took a ton of 3s and the totals were skewed by shot selection. UNC and VT each took 19 3s. And don’t confuse me here, I’m [...]

Maryland 74, NC State 69. That’s your final. Don’t let the margin let you believe that NC State played well, smart, or with any enthusiasm or sense of urgency. Here is Sidney Lowe’s program in a nutshell – the only guy who consistently played hard and as if he had a brain in his [...]

Monday, March 9, 2009
It is undoubtedly fitting that NC State and Maryland will battle in this year’s Atlantic Coast Conference Basketball Tournament since today is the 35th anniversary of the unforgettable 1974 ACC Championship between the Wolfpack and the Terrapins in Greensboro Coliseum. Today’s Charlotte Observer contained an article focusing on Tommy Burleson written by Ron Green, Jr. It [...]

I enjoyed semi-live blogging the Wake game, so I’ll try to do the same tonight. I am very confident tonight, and expect a fairly comfortable (8-12 point) win. Of course, NC State is like Forrest Gump’s box of chocolates – you never know what you’re going to get. Place your thoughts, reactions, [...]

Saturday, February 28, 2009
Thanks to Chop for neatly summarizing not only NC State’s in-game scenario, but also the rest of their season: the Wolfpack has no margin for error, and not only does each game rest on each four minute segment of their last few regular season contests, but each segment could also seal their post-season fate as [...]

Friday, February 13, 2009
The Washington Post is doing a fascinating three part series on the fall of Maryland basketball. In part two, this is a quote that stood out: Tony Squire, who coached Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen in AAU, said the state of North Carolina has become “infested with street agents,” adding that “there is no question [...]

Sunday, November 30, 2008
Afternoon update: At this point, I am not sure that this information is accurate. However, this appears to be great news though I disagree with Heather’s conclusions. As we have mentioned, Maryland is not an option for the Congressional Bowl because they have exams on the same date as the game. Apparently Navy’s [...]

Marlyand 27 – NC State 24 FINAL The Wolfpack defense yields a drive to their two-yard line as the clock melts towards zeros, and Maryland makes a field goal try to once again put the Pack in the “Close, But No Cigar” department. No moral victory, this. Link to N&O’s in-game blog 24-24 nearing end of 3rd [...]

The series with Maryland dates back to 1909, with the two teams meeting every year since 1956. The rivalry has been a close one through the years, as evidenced by the 30-30-4 series record. The Terrapins have two more wins in College Park while NC State holds a one-win advantage in Raleigh. The Wolfpack has lost [...]

One of the privileges of having authorship rights is being able to ask the SFN community to cover you when other obligations arise. I will be at a party on Saturday, in an area with no ESPN360 coverage. In such an environment, I will not be able to follow a radio broadcast. [...]
