Official what games to pay attention to thread...

One advantage NC State has in the postseason is that refs are more likely to let guys bang it out. Richard Howell is a foul machine and fouls out a ton of games. If he can stay on the floor longer, it helps their team a lot.

They also would have beaten Duke pretty easily if half of their freaking team wasn't in foul trouble.

no doubt. but of course you have to play the refs too when facing Duke.

fuuuuuuuuuuu

NC State's guys are definitely not helping themselves at the line.

 

[Bassmanbruno]

lol what a terrible shot

 

[golfballs]

what the **** was that!? Go for a 2 and get a quick foul. NC State can't hit FTs to save their life!

Not sure if anyone mentioned Temple losing...I guess hopefully the winner of Xavier/Dayton wins the whole thing?

Being on the inside of the bubble looking out is akin to the ACC title for the Pack lately. Sidney Lowe was totally inept.

 

[golfballs]

Who has the better resume now? NC State or Tennessee? Their signature win is against UVA, and their worst loss was at home vs Georgia Tech.

St Bonny wins

NC State is going to be nasty next year, especially if CJ Leslie stays like I think he will

 

[golfballs]

If NC State gets beat by 30 tomorrow, maybe it will put them on the wrong side of the bubble

St Bonny wins

fantastic. Now St Louis needs to take care of business.

NC State right now.

Lots of talent there. Talent wasn't the problem under the old regime though. I think Gottfried will do well there for the next few years with those players. We'll see if he can keep the talent level up.

NC State's resume: 22-11, RPI 46 (this must include the UVA win), 2 100+ losses, 29 SOS, 4-8 against top 50, 6-9 vs top 100.

Better than UT's at this point.

 

[golfballs]

I think so too

 

[Bassmanbruno]

Don't really think we have a shot unless we win two - I was starting to think we'd have a good shot with only 1 win with all the bubble teams losing.. but idk.

 

[golfballs]

I think we have to win 2 as well

 

[golfballs]

we could have gotten in with 1, but texas, nc state, and miami all needed to lose.

FWIW, Andy Glockner has us in, but said he doesn't think NC State is. He thinks they may need to beat UNC.
