^Second. Bitching and moaning about the past is not going to change the fact that we lost this game. Let's go out there and win the Old Spice Classic! We're goin' to Disney World!

11/19/2007 2:09:48 PM

I can't believe no one pointed out Ted Valentine.

We played like shit, no doubt, and probably deserved to loose. But the officiating down the stretch definitely didn't help us any. In particular, they rode Degand hard to the basket near the end, no foul call, then on the ensuing loose ball they call a foul on Gavin where there was just basic loose ball contact. This put them up by 1.

11/19/2007 2:33:52 PM

Was Sid trying to please everyone by keeping the starters on the bench for so long? I agree with State Oz that we would have won if we played to win and kept the starters in longer. We need to stop shooting bad shots and get it inside to the bigs. I wonder how Monte Towe feels about the loss.

Fells: Only 3pts in 31mins of play
McCauley: Only 2pts in 11mins of play

Gonzalez, Ferguson and Horner combined had one single point with a combined 34 minutes of playing time.

52% team free throw percentage

11/19/2007 2:38:39 PM

the most telling stat of that entire box score - total assists: 11

11/19/2007 2:42:57 PM

The free throws are really starting to piss me off.

11/19/2007 2:43:02 PM

11/19/2007 2:52:37 PM

Last week was the best I'd felt about NCSU athletics in like 5 years, even the women's team was ranked. God how quickly that changed.

don't get on javi. he played 11 minutes, had 1 TO, 2 assists, a block and a steal. i'll take that from a true freshman in his second game ever.

he honestly looks like he could be dirty. i hope he pans out.

11/19/2007 3:42:07 PM

I really don't see the problem with the minutes that the bench got. I don't want to have my guys play 30+ minutes a night and get tired down the stretch of the season.

It would've been better to mix the bench up with the starters than to practically bring the whole team out there. When Hickson sits, Grant or Costner can assume the role of the go-to guy. When Costner and Grant sits, Hickson and Fells/McCauley can be the scorers. Just don't make it Grant + 4 from the bench. It's kind of obvious who the scorer is going to be, and we still need a certain amount of talent on the floor to

Just think, at least NCSU held a top 10 scorer in the nation to 20... I said contain him and we'd be lucky to get 35. We got 45, which was enough for the win

11/19/2007 5:16:53 PM

^^he sucks. but to his credit, he does hustle. he tries at least. which can't be said for several others on the team unfortunately.

i don't think he belongs out there getting all those minutes either, but with sidney saying the past few weeks how hard ferguson's been working in practice, it doesn't surprise me.

11/19/2007 6:23:12 PM

This is not the fucking YMCA. Just because he is trying hard doesn't mean he should see playing time.

11/19/2007 6:25:04 PM

agreed. i wish sidney would.

I bought it to be funny in times like this... but in reality, I didnt think I would get too many chances. I will never make it a hate sidney site though like some shameful fans do. If something wants to make a good hilarious image for times like this, Im willing to stick it on the landing page.
