N.C. State @ Georgia Tech – 12pm

N.C. State Wolfpack (13-9, 4-5) @ Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (10-10, 1-7) – 12pm | Hank McCamish Pavilion | TV: ACC Network (WRAL locally)

GoPack preview | Georgia Tech team page

If the Pack want to salvage the season and make a run for the tourney they need to start today. We’ll see how the Pack responds after some tough losses, including a mostly embarrassing performance their last time out at home against Clemson.

Georgia Tech is coming off of a 20-point win at Miami – their first conference win. Tech has been close in most of their conference contests, but have been unable to win until putting it together against the Hurricanes. The Yellow Jackets are yet another physical, defense oriented team – the type of team that the Pack has typically struggled with this season and in the past.

Please share your thoughts.

    This game is huge Jerry, huge!!!

    Gott’s teams have typically played pretty well when their backs are against the wall. I expect we’ll see the same again this afternoon.

    Hope you’re correct, sir

    No idea what to expect.
    Been a tough stretch. Would really be nice to see a strong win.

    If they come out flat and listless I might cry. I never want to see a repeat of Sidney’s second season ever again.

    Play with some damn pride, if nothing else.

    I think I GOTT this … at least for the first quarter….

    Now… the BOTB litmus test this afternoon is two parts…

    1. Can we play hard and smart in the second half when we have a big lead at halftime.

    2. How many smiling faces, how much head (and hand) slapping and talking to each other … our kids do.

    Good start on this one.

    On the radio pre-game, Gott stated that while they of course spent time preparing for GT, most of the time since Clemson has been spent concentrating on ourselves.

    If true, that’s good. Better late than never.

    ^yep … KW seems to be in the front of the Big Red line…

    He’s our “cheerleader”… I think… ( kinda like Deshawn Painter was )…

    Can you imagine if Abu stays four seasons?

    Upside on him is incredible.

    Yes, Cat working his feline tushie off so far.

    I thought that GOTT talked about how LACEY needed to be a better PG and deemphasized Cat. SO, Cat starts at PG. GO figure.

    CAT hit a TREY…

    Also, Lutz is now in the running, at least from a wardrobe standpoint, as ORW’s replacement. This is the third, I think, game where he is wearing a light blue shirt. Change the tie and he would be trolling the UNC bench.

    BUT, we are on a roll….will it last until the end of the game. Throwing up bricks now.

    GT settling down…need to kick it up again….

    Don’t flop Kyle. You don’t wear blue.

    This is what has been missing from the game threads. Gonna be really tough for GT to win now.

    Hopefully Lacey’s quota of bad shots has been met.

    Botb,

    Comparing Washington’s attitude to painters is pretty heady. I think that Painter should have been in the NCSU HOF for attitude and drive. Hope that Kyle meets the lofty expectations that you just laid out for him.

    12 point lead. We are doomed.

    Awful possession against the zone. That was not encouraging.

    A little disconcerting that out of the timeout, we did that.

    And that.

    GT’s fumble saves it tho.
