State @ Carolina Pre-Game Thread (Updated Wed 9am)
Note: Originally posted by Alpha Wolf and amended on Wednesday by Jeff State is obviously improving and has won back-to-back ACC wins for the first time this season. The Wolfpack also snapped a nine-game conference road game skid Saturday in Atlanta. For their part, UNC’s Tyler “Will.i.Am” Hansbrough loaned PG Ty Lawson some of his […]

NC State – Georgia Tech Game Thread
Here’s a place for your commments on the State – Tech game as it progresses. Hopefully the Pack will open a can of Raid on the Yellow Jackets this afternoon.
Degand Emerging
The key to this season for NC State was getting effective play from the PG position. Overall, Farnold Degand, Javier Gonzalez, and Julius Mays have not performed at the level NC State needed to make the NCAA tournament. However, an NIT bid would be a solid step for Sidney Lowe’s third team considering the change […]
Will The Pack Stay Hot in Atlanta? (Georgia Tech Pregame Thread)
The Pack travels to Atlanta tomorrow for a 1:30pm start against Georgia Tech in another must-win hoops contest. State could take a big step towards a post-season berth (the NIT still seems to be the most possible) with a win, and also, they could insure that they won’t finish DFL in the ACC regular season […]
ACC officials embarrass league, spark (Jamie) ‘Luckie’ comeback
If the ACC really wants to claim the “Best college basketball in the country†title, they have to fix their officiating. I won’t even go into some of the calls during the game (it’s a bad sign when both coaches are pissed off at the referees). The calls were bad enough, but they had to […]

For two programs on such dramatically opposite performance arcs, the head-to-head record is startling – the Pack has won 6 games in a row. For Hokie fans, it must be hard to imagine what your program might have accomplished if not for this strange losing streak. I’m sure Seth Greenburg (aka “Basketball Grobe”) would prefer […]
Twenty Turnovers in Win Over Hapless Central
I listened to parts of each half, and it wasn’t very impressive. I heard at least two 10-second calls against State PGs. And the Eagles were actually up 10-2 at the first media timeout. Thankfully, State pulled away in the last ten minutes to avoid an embarrassing score in this morning’s paper. But against a […]
