I project that if we lose to Clemson at home, we miss the NCAA...

We're 4 games into an 18 game ACC schedule.

Projecting NCAA tournament seeds at this point is fucking stupid.

I would prefer for the people who want to write off the season after this loss, or the next, or the next etc write off their NC State fanhood all together. We'd be better off without those assholes giving us a bad name.

Clemson game thread??

1/18/2013 11:21:22 AM

I think that is great that we are 0.500 in a stretch where CJL and Wood have just been off.

1/20/2013 11:20:42 PM

currently shown as #18 in the power rankings, which is reasonable. they are also showing miami at #23

"The Wolfpack have been a little off-kilter since their signature win against Duke, losing at Maryland and struggling at home against Clemson. What's most difficult to figure out: where the offense went. NC State had just 50 in a loss to Maryland and 62 in a loss to Clemson. This for a team ranked eighth in the nation in scoring."

come on ESPN

#18 in AP poll, sounds about right

1/21/2013 12:39:42 PM

#18 in coaches

Miami still only in others receiving votes interestingly enough.

1/21/2013 12:41:56 PM

i like that miami is ranked, give's us another chance at a quality win (but i doubt it'll last long as they play duke on wed)

1/21/2013 12:46:56 PM

http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/rankings

espn showing Miami ranked #25 in AP top 25.

1/21/2013 12:50:45 PM

I will TAKE 18.

Also, Duke is not #1. No way.

1/21/2013 1:54:06 PM

well, they are the 1-loss team who lost the longest time ago. so, they are #1, lol

1/21/2013 3:45:22 PM

not going to lie...glad we only play miami once and it's at home.

1/21/2013 4:10:51 PM

remember two years ago when we went 15-16?

that will make it so much sweeter to upset them when we squeak in as a 14 seed

1/22/2013 1:42:07 PM

I thought 12 was the lowest seed an at-large bid could be.

1/22/2013 1:49:34 PM

yeah whatever

also creighton is legit, at least their one big white baller is, he'll have a long nba career

1/22/2013 1:50:40 PM

Why do you say that? He could go like Gordon Hayword or adam morrison. Since he is not very athletic, I am going with adam morrison.

Hayward is a lot better pro player than Morrison

I know more than you do.


Tell me again how we're going 16-2 and we'll play great defense as soon as we start playing ACC competition.

1/22/2013 8:43:14 PM

we're about to be 5-1 in conference play

quit over-reacting like a female

1/22/2013 8:44:47 PM

Don't worry guys next year will be year!

1/22/2013 8:45:50 PM

Virginia isn't the second best team and we are still 4-1 but yes, you're right about our defense. But who is arguing that point?

1/22/2013 8:46:20 PM

^ the entire wolfweb. i got trolled for the past month about how great this team is and that you can't look at how we're playing to evaluate how good we are

1/22/2013 8:47:57 PM

you also get trolled for saying we're on pace to go 18-0

but thats what happens when your predictions are basically "we are not a good team, we should go 12-6, but if we win, we might go 18-0, i'll be correct whatever happens"

1/22/2013 8:49:13 PM

i never said anything about going 18-0 you guys are fucking morons.

We are a bubble team, I've been telling you that repeatedly for weeks.

1/22/2013 8:53:05 PM

bubble team is too much exaggeration. we have enough quality wins to make the tourney as long as we don't blow any honkers to anymore bottom half ACC teams.

1/22/2013 8:55:11 PM

Face's life is one big exaggeration. No one who knows anything takes him or his predictions seriously

No, he said we were on pace to go undefeated, since, you know, we hadn't lost a conference game yet. And you're familiar enough with face's post history to understand it was a tongue-in-cheek comment.
