NC State received the East Region’s 8th seed in the East Region and will play Temple in Dayton, Ohio on Friday. With a win, the Wolfpack would most likely play #1 seeded Indiana on Sunday. The 24-10 Wolfpack finished #33 in the RPI and was generally projected by most ‘Bracketologists’ to land on the eight […]

NCSU Earns a 8 Seed, And Will Face Temple In The East Regional
The NC State Wolfpack has earned an 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament and will face Temple in Dayton Ohio in the East Regional.  Should State defeat the Owls, they’ll almost certainly face regional top-seed Indiana. The Hoosiers will face the winner of the James Madison/LIU game. Louisville is the overall first seed in the […]
Congratulations, Miami
All week long, there was a pitched battle to see who could shovel the most dirt on Miami’s grave. With losses at Wake and at freaking home to freaking Georgia Tech…people assumed this team had just peaked too soon. But it turns out, the Canes just had their lull at exactly the right time. And […]

The Los Angeles Times reviewed Survive & Advance here. “Survive and Advance,” which premieres Sunday on ESPN as part of its excellent “30 for 30” series of sports documentaries, is a sweet and moving […]
Miami 81 – NCSU 71 in the ACC Tournament Semifinals
It wasn’t in the cards from the opening tip for the Wolfpack today, as the Miami Hurricanes defeated the Wolfpack 81-71 in the ACC Tournament Semifinals in Greensboro. State got off to a very sluggish start — not getting off of the blocks scoring-wise until 5:25 had ticked off of the clock — and they […]

Wolfpack Dispatches Virginia in the ACC Tournament Second Round, 75-56
In a thoroughly dominating performance in the Second Round of the ACC Tournament, the Wolfpack defeated Virginia, 75-56. Scott Wood was on fire in the second half, seemingly throwing in three point shots as if they were balls tossed at the side of a barn. The vaunted UVA defense could do little to stop the […]

Preparing for the much ballyhooed UVA defense
We get to play the top “defensive” team in the ACC today. They hold teams to 54.5 points per game. As the image below attests, UVA does not like to let other teams score so prepare yourself for a low scoring, brutal basketball game. In preparation for the game I hear Gottfried hired a wrestling […]
