    Purdue is gonna be a good test. They’re a bit on the young/inexperienced side (lol), but their guards are big and can shoot, and they have not one, but two 7+ footers. Plus it’s at their place.

    A win by any means should be appreciated.

    You mean nobody’s hype for Nebraska-FSU or Clemson-Rutgers???

    I’ve missed who’s calling the game, but I’ve got the Clemson game on now and I’m pretty sure it’s Brad Daughtery doing the commentary. I always liked him doing commentary before he moved to Nascar coverage. Maybe he’ll do a few basketball games this season.

    I missed the announcing announcements as well, but that sure sounds like Daugherty. I always kinda liked him too. Not nearly as intolerable as most of his baby blue brethren.

    FSU getting their asses handed to them at home.

    Welp, ACC is 0-2 after one night of the ACC-B1G challenge – both of the losses at ACC venues πŸ™

    My “conference solidarity” attitude is largely on life support these days. Aside from NCSU, I don’t much even care if the ACC wins another game. Well, aside from UVa, but that has more to do with their assfaced opponent.

    I will be actively pulling for Sparty. And Iowa too (but again…that’s mostly due to their assfaced opponent).

    Daugherty is a great announcer.

    Hess seems to hate basketball the way he ruins it.
    Too many fouls called

    And I despise the way uva plays ‘basketball’.

    It is atrocious.

    ACC down 0-2 … like Wufpacker, I don’t really care outside of N.C. State but it’s interesting nonetheless.

    Six challenge games this evening, including our Pack at Purdue.

    Other games:
    Pittsburgh at Indiana – meh, but a loss by IU would further put Tom Crean in the ground
    Minny at Wake Forest – ha
    Syracuse at Michigan – not bad
    ranked Illinois at ranked Miami – hmmph
    TOSU at Louisville – not bad

    WP76, you are better person than I. I refuse to acknowledge the “The” in Ohio State University. Drives me crazy when I hear it on broadcast!

    ^Haha, I do it now b/c it makes me laugh to think about people making fun of it … it’s so effing pretentious!

    ^ tOSU aint the only one…

    I might as well let all you NOLES haters in a little secret…

    The official name of that school down in Tallytown is…
    “THE Florida State University”

    Unlike tOSU.. about the only time you’ll hear that name used is by the Chancellor at formal University occasions, like graduation and such… Nobody ever accused anybody from FSU of being pretentious… that’s the sole property of the GATORHOLES down in sunny FLA…

    Now don’t ask me the story as to how that came about…
    But I will tell you .. from 1905 to 1947… the name of the college was …
    “Florida State College for Women”

    Somebody commented a couple days ago on the latest “Coach DD is doing great things” thread as to how the history and tradition of a school impact it’s culture long for a long time…

    Just as NC State was once a Men’s College…
    FSU was a Women’s College… kinda like UNC-G…

    … that NOLES football team plays for a “girl’s school”…

    tag = miscellaneous useless trivia…

    #NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!

    Ah, nostalgia for the good ol’ days when the ACC-B1G Challenge wasn’t almost half the size of the NCAAT.

    What should concern fans of cheating and fraud

    LOL, nice work.

    Anyone notice if King Karl is reffing now?

    Hahaha thank you, Tau.

    Speaking with all the vanity I can muster, I was wondering if anyone would highlight that statement … I was very proud of that one πŸ™‚

    Anyone notice if King Karl is reffing now?

    Flipping back and forth, but mostly as noise in the background … I haven’t seen him yet – though not really paying attention.

    I’d be surprised if he’s on our game.

    Great write up. Very enjoyable read.

    Now at 6-2 in favor of the B1G now, which is a little surprising. Wasn’t expecting us to lose, nor FSU. The league needs GT and VT to get some wins on the road to make the B1G’s inevitable victory a tad more respectable. If only the top tier/ranked ACC teams win, bubble hopes for the league could take a hit. Still don’t think Duke will beat a physical Wiscy team on the road unless they play out of their minds. 9-5 or 10-4 looks like where this is going to end up.

    Holes-Hawkeyes pretty ugly first half.

    I like that the ACC lost, and that the death blow came in the Nose Dome. Fuck ’em.

    Iowa 60 @ Cheats 55.

    For Roy’s sake, remember Haiti.

    Maryland has scored 4 points in nine minutes against UVa.

    I turned the sound off. It looked like Meeks fouled out. Should I even wonder about the d bags wearing green.

    I only saw the second half, Fastback. Not sure what the green shirts were about.

    Was it VPI or ND that won the other game? I quit paying attention.

    Looked odd WP. Perhaps it was a message for the NCAA. We are willing to pay (greenbacks) in order to play.
