I don't get ESPNU

12/3/2020 2:50:08 PM

Maybe you can stream it on fox sports since you don't have espnu

[Edited on December 3, 2020 at 3:22 PM. Reason : this is a joke making fun of people complaining about RSN games]

12/3/2020 3:22:03 PM

a couple of streams here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ncaaBBallStreams/comments/k65is3/game_thread_nc_state_vs_umass_lowell_0430_pm_est/

So apparently this team was beating #23 Ohio State with 10 minutes left, but OSU pulled away and won by 10.

We're beating them 41-18 with a minutet left in the first half (and Hellems is leading in points, rbs and assists)

How long we going to start Beverly over Hayes? Not even close who's the better player especially at point.

12/3/2020 5:53:07 PM

Allen coming to life!

12/3/2020 5:58:16 PM

Lets wait and see if Hayes can compete against high level competition before we crown him.

12/3/2020 6:18:51 PM

Saturday vs UConn will be a much better measuring stick for the freshmen

We've seen Beverly for 3+ years. He needs to be off the ball and playing 20 minutes.

12/3/2020 9:07:23 PM

I forgot this game was even happening! Tru fan!

12/3/2020 10:25:15 PM

That horn sounded like a clown horn. We are looking balanced so far, ready to see us against UConn.

Yep. I've been making this argument since last year. Beverly isn't a bad player, he just isn't fit for the outsized role that keatts and circumstances/depth has had him play. Now that we have depth, he should be able to fill the correct role.


Beverly is an energy/scorer off the bench guy.

12/4/2020 3:46:51 PM

i think it's less about whether Beverly is coming off the bench or what his minutes are...he's better off the ball than on the ball.

UConn game just got cancelled due to COVID19 in Bubbleville damn

12/5/2020 12:05:16 AM

Breaking news: Bubbleville not actually a bubble, is just a catchy name used for PR purposes.

Turns out running a shit ton of games at a casino open to the general public isn't actually a bubble.

12/5/2020 7:16:33 AM

Well damn. Was looking forward to this game.

12/5/2020 8:25:23 AM

I thought the name was referring to the quality of teams playing there

12/5/2020 12:10:42 PM

Was looking forward to this game. Hope this isn’t a common occurrence this season.

12/6/2020 12:09:06 AM

Apparently they're attempting to reschedule it

I wouldn't get my hopes up about not having more games canceled/rescheduled.

12/6/2020 11:50:36 AM

Just a reminder that the '83 Championship Run is starting on ACCN @ 2:00 today. I'm DVRing.

12/7/2020 1:20:04 PM

Random thing I like to do: The difference between 2020 and 1983 is the same difference between 1983 and 1946.

12/7/2020 1:46:06 PM

Cleopatra lived closer to the 1983 championship than to the building of the pyramids in Giza.

12/7/2020 2:44:43 PM

Much game isn't on my scores app any more

12/7/2020 6:33:05 PM

Yep, Michigan game is also postponed by the same Covid concerns that canceled the UConn game

12/7/2020 7:14:32 PM

This is hella lame

12/7/2020 9:08:25 PM

No #inside #info or anything. But I assume our next chance at playing is probably 12/16 @UL...and UL is also shutting their shit down right now too.

We are scheduled 12/12 vs FAU.

12/7/2020 9:41:34 PM

I believe the FAU is still on

12/8/2020 8:23:03 AM

It hasn’t been cancelled. I’m just saying my hunch is it probably will get canceled.

12/8/2020 8:45:44 AM

I'm glad we don't have to play a big 10 team yikesssss

12/9/2020 8:26:12 AM

B1G isn't great, the "top" of the ACC (Duke, UNC) is just plain not good.

12/9/2020 11:02:59 AM

Basketball paused. No word on if we will start ACC play.

12/9/2020 11:25:32 AM

I don’t really care much about conference pride. But lol at Pitt, Clemson, GT carrying the flag for the ACC yesterday (and FSU too but they are actually good).

Also fuck Maryland

12/10/2020 7:12:06 AM

I miss Maryland fucking with Duke so much.

I do not miss Maryland beating us.

12/10/2020 4:48:27 PM

Can you make a cartoon for COVID-19?

12/10/2020 7:41:32 PM

Covid is undefeated so far.

12/11/2020 1:26:27 PM

Yooo when did TWW come back? Was it posted on Reddit or FB?

Man I hope we resume play soon, this team has potential

12/12/2020 1:54:10 AM

?? Twws always been here?

12/12/2020 2:04:48 AM

Always has been.

12/12/2020 10:54:42 AM

Yeah TWW don't neva stop

12/12/2020 10:24:12 PM

Unfortunately NC State basketball does stop...

12/12/2020 10:47:56 PM

Louisville game officially postponed

12/13/2020 4:52:50 PM

While we're waiting for the season to resume, fwiw:

"13. NC State (3-0) Three games, three 31-plus-point wins. The Wolfpack excel at taking care of the ball and taking it away from teams, ranking in the top 10 in the nation in both categories. When combined with NC State making almost 45% of its 3-pointers on the season, that's a difficult combination to beat."

12/15/2020 10:27:31 AM

Jeff Goodman saying on Twitter that we may be playing St Louis on Thursday

12/15/2020 12:00:30 PM

Def not the right thread for this but has anyone here ever heard the rumor that NC State showed up to a game against either Duke/UNC and cheered for the Soviet Union? I swear I read/heard that somewhere (maybe '74 by Timothy Brannan?) but can't for the life of me remember where from.

12/15/2020 11:11:52 PM

More related to this topic, though, St. Louis game was officially added

12/16/2020 12:52:20 AM

^^^^ wow

12/16/2020 10:14:38 AM

KK says we’ll have 9 guys available for the St Louis game. No word on who those 9 are...probably won’t hear till close to tip tomorrow.

I’m assuming most of the 9 are our regular rotation players...otherwise I don’t see why we would have been in a rush to schedule a game.

12/16/2020 10:30:41 AM

^^^^ the story i've heard is that the soviet union played unc in a scrimmage or something and the running joke (and probably true) was that state fans wouldn't even cheer for unc against the soviet union during the cold war.

here's a couple different links, although the time lines are different.

https://vault.si.com/vault/1975/11/24/their-goal-is-gold-in-76

Quote :

" After Thursday and Friday victories over Syracuse and Richmond, the Soviets lost to powerful North Carolina last Saturday afternoon 82-78 in a game that perhaps had more significance than the others, since Tar Heel Coach Dean Smith will be in charge of the U.S. Olympic team in 1976."

so this was in 1975 prior to the 76 olympics. the article specifically mentions that the game was held in Carmichael in front of fans.

and then this article is actually about Springfield playing the Soviets in 1991 but mentions a game vs UNC during the same trip for the Soviets...this doesn't mention where the game was played

"This was the third game of a five-game trip (sponsored by USA Basketball) for the Soviet Union who also played Kentucky, North Carolina, Duke, and Indiana."
