#9 Alabama (9-1, 0-0)
vs NC State (7-2, 0-1)

Alabama comes into Raleigh for what is one of NC State's biggest games of the year. Although it would have been a little better for Alabama to come into this unbeaten, it is still a huge game. Hopefully State will come out a little bit more motivated than they were this afternoon, in hopes to upset the #9 Alabama.

In addition, with the possibility of Atsur and Ferguson coming back, the Pack might have a little more help.

ok im gonna be needing a student ticket

i got first dibs

12/17/2006 4:13:45 AM

All the student tickets have already been claimed, I can't believe it. I figured everyone was going to be out of town and not able to go. I guess not. Hopefully some people will turn extra tickets in..

12/17/2006 8:14:14 AM

better be a packed house. heheh packed. go pack.

12/17/2006 11:18:16 AM

i need student tickets too
i got 2nd dibs

12/17/2006 11:44:14 AM

agreed, if anyone has a couple tickets i missed the claim period like a moron; so if you're going out of town and cant use them, id appreciate it

12/17/2006 12:19:01 PM

so whats the official word on Ferguson? Since the semester ends on Tuesday will he be able to play for us on Wednesday?

12/17/2006 2:45:34 PM

On the pregame yesterday they said Dec 21st. I don't know why he couldn't play on the 20th. New semester doesn't start till Jan right? So why is the 21st so special in this case??

12/17/2006 2:48:32 PM

i dunno how many times I have to say it

he will be able to play in the Alabama game according to fergie

12/17/2006 2:50:37 PM

i'll believe when I see it

12/17/2006 2:53:02 PM

Graduation is on the 20th

[Edited on December 17, 2006 at 2:55 PM. Reason : so I guess 21st is considered "next school year"]

12/17/2006 2:55:33 PM

I hope during this long layoff his body stayed vicious and he was up in the gym just working on his fitness. Is anybody his witness?

12/17/2006 2:57:22 PM

12/17/2006 5:01:47 PM

ack, no FSN-S access here

12/17/2006 5:01:48 PM

i cant remember how the seating works, the numbered rows are the temporary seats at the bottom right? or are those lettered?

he's been practicing with the team . . . he just couldn't play in a game.

12/17/2006 5:15:53 PM

^^ temp. seats in front of the sides of where the ice goes out to are numbered, lettered behind that. (i think.)

12/17/2006 7:53:13 PM

at about 18seconds you can see Ben punch Nieman in the mouth

12/17/2006 7:54:56 PM

this will be my first game of the season. ive been studying abroad and i get back wednesday at 2 oclock. im so frickin stoked.

12/17/2006 8:08:28 PM

12/17/2006 9:06:24 PM

^good luck.

12/17/2006 10:35:07 PM

on the coach lowe how he said fergy would be eligible for the bama game

12/18/2006 12:04:25 AM

I notice that no one has made a prediction.

Bama 78
State 71

We play well, impress some people, give Bama a scare, but come away with the L.

12/18/2006 12:55:48 AM

Sec 105 Row B

Courtside holla.

12/18/2006 2:30:27 AM

man ncsuftw1 for president with these highlight reels!

12/18/2006 2:38:36 AM

bamas overated as usual. if nothing crazy happens we will win. bama won't be in the top 20 at the end of the year.

12/18/2006 3:15:10 AM

OK, I won't be able to make it back to raleigh for the bama game so I have an extra student ticket.Sect. 104 Row A Seat 6. First person to pm me proof that they've been to one of the previous lower level games gets it.

12/18/2006 11:04:28 AM

^^ I actually thought that too. Then I saw them play. They are good. They will probably beat us by 10+ if Atsur is out still. I believe their only loss was @ ND (who by the way is very UNDERrated this year for once) and everyone knows how hard it is to beat ND @ Joyce Center. I came away from that game really, really impressed with 'Bama...

12/18/2006 11:39:02 AM

that dunk by Fells was SO nasty!

12/18/2006 12:40:05 PM

ticket gone.

12/18/2006 1:36:40 PM

^^Seriously.

12/18/2006 2:20:04 PM

I just like how he stares down the guy laying on the court after the dunk

12/18/2006 2:29:24 PM

I fucking Hate Trans Siberian Orchestra

12/18/2006 2:33:37 PM

haha i didn't really want to find a song, and then i heard that at the canes game the other night and decided to use it

[Edited on December 18, 2006 at 3:58 PM. Reason : i kinda like it]

12/18/2006 3:58:14 PM

Does anyone have any extra student tickets????

12/18/2006 5:28:35 PM

man I got one at 12:01 when ondemand started, 2 tix, section 127, row 7 MUFUKERS!

12/18/2006 7:08:48 PM

With some fresh legs down the stretch, I say we win this one by 8. Damn I love this team!

12/18/2006 7:20:19 PM

student tickets are gone fuck n A! everybody better use those damn tickets and raise hell

12/18/2006 8:36:29 PM

I just wanted to put my 2 cents worth in that i've been reaaaally dissapointed in the crowd turnouts for the games thus far. Granted, they arent against top caliber teams, even the Michigan game had tons of empty seats where alumni should have been sitting.

Saturday afternoon against Mt St Marys should have had way more people. I know I would bring my family out on a nice afternoon to watch ACC basketball and an exciting State squad.


Lets bring the house for Alabama!!!!!
