02/12/2014 at 2:53 PM #40505JohnGalt78ParticipantUNCheat hoping for a “no-show” game tonight perhaps????? Then they can mail in a victory to Swoffy’s office, hang a banner and order rings.
02/12/2014 at 3:08 PM #40506Pack78Participant^Good call-the holes do ‘no-show’ better than anyone else in the nation…
02/12/2014 at 3:24 PM #40509SqlWolfParticipantI hope they don’t call this game off. I want to see the game shown on TV with lots of empty seats. I fully expect the Dukies to totally demolish the holes.
02/12/2014 at 3:25 PM #40510Pack85EEParticipantWhen folks ask who I pull for in the battle of the turds, I always say, I’m pulling for the roof to cave in. This may be the best chance yet (said with a unc eating grin).
02/12/2014 at 3:29 PM #40511tjfoose1ParticipantI highly recommend this:
02/12/2014 at 4:10 PM #40514tjfoose1ParticipantWRAL just announced, @ 4:10 pm EST, that the blews game is still on. u*nc is requesting non-ticket holding students to start lining up at 7pm to fill empty seats.
02/12/2014 at 4:15 PM #40515PapaWolfParticipantSFN does PSA! Awesome.
My daughter got stuck about a mile from the house. I went to the rescue in the 4WD pickup. Took 2 1/2 hours. Stay away from New Hope Church Rd. The hill going up to the Green Road intersection was completely stopped.
02/12/2014 at 4:16 PM #4051613OTParticipantLocal tv and ESPN are both carrying this game. The only way it would be called off at this point would be if Dickie V couldn’t get there.
Re roads: it took me almost an hour and a half to go from Jones Franklin Road at Western Boulevard to Jones Franklin at Tryon Road around 2pm. Half the problem was the stoplight at the Sumter Square entrance.
02/12/2014 at 4:39 PM #40517BJD95KeymasterIf you get stuck a mile or two away from someplace…WALK.
02/12/2014 at 4:41 PM #40518tjfoose1ParticipantAren’t you always a mile or two from someplace? 🙂
02/12/2014 at 4:44 PM #40519BJD95KeymasterTrue! Existential, but true.
The sound of pinging is making me uber nervous.
02/12/2014 at 4:53 PM #40520LRMKeymasterUtter chaos reigns in Cary. I was out for a while this afternoon and had to help push several cars just to clear an opening to get things moving. It got nasty fast. Snow movers don’t do much good when it’s gridlock. I’ve navigated blizzards in the Wasatch, Sierra Nevada, Loveland Pass, Chicago and of course back home on Highway 421 from Boone — it’s fun if you’re equipped for it.
I remember when State-UNC was cancelled in ’91 the night Desert Storm began. They played back-to-back the next two nights.
It’s irresponsible for the ACC to play this game, simply because it is, in fact, so important to so many folks, that people will get killed trying to get there.

I have driven those same places. That road up to Alta has one of the highest occurrences of avalanches. Great skiing though!
02/12/2014 at 5:16 PM #40522GowolvesParticipantHoundstooth pass in Colorado is a bitch too!
02/12/2014 at 5:19 PM #40523tjfoose1ParticipantHoundstooth pass in Colorado is a bitch too!
Ha, that ain’t nuttin. You shoulda seen the braintrusts tying to navigate S Boylan today.
02/12/2014 at 5:47 PM #40524GowolvesParticipantThe blues have been cancelled. Too bad. Boo hoo
02/12/2014 at 6:06 PM #40525TheCOWDOGModeratorAll fantastic roads to the above peeps.
For my money, “dropping” into Bishop through Montgomery Pass is the most treacherous in the lower 48.
02/12/2014 at 6:10 PM #40526redcanineParticipantGonna have to go acoustic tonight. Unplugged. Dont want the amp to blow.
Any requests?
02/12/2014 at 6:14 PM #40527tjfoose1ParticipantBlews game is off. Postponed.
02/12/2014 at 6:18 PM #40528tjfoose1ParticipantBlews game is off. Postponed.
[Edit]
Oops. Hadn’t refreshed. Old news, Gowolves already posted.
02/12/2014 at 7:00 PM #40530highstickParticipantMy understanding is that K had Sarah Palin’s husband lined up with several sleds and dog teams to get them to Chapel Hill…When Roy heard that, they decided to postpone the game!
"Whomp 'em, Up, Side the Head"!
02/12/2014 at 7:14 PM #40533LRMKeymasterBig and Little Cottonwood Canyons are two of the finest drives on earth. Solitude is my favorite ski hill in the Wasatch.
The coldest I’ve ever been was either on the Italy-France border at La Rosier or the Alta-Snowbird pass a few years ago.
The most nerve-racking, treacherous drive I had was through a whiteout on California 88 from Kirkwood back to Tahoe.
02/12/2014 at 7:35 PM #40534BJD95KeymasterYou guys have a lot more fun and adventure than me.
