Can someone explain to me the rationale by which this could possibly be anything but court rush-worthy? Because it clearly was.

2/11/2009 9:25:35 PM

nobody reads the last post in a thread especially one moving this fast

just depends on how you look at it. yes, they are big problems. I'm just looking at it as ways of losing. How frustrating it is not to close out games. The duke game and the vt game are the two that stand out most to me. I'd just like to have those two wins obviously because those are the two that our lack of finishing hurt us the most.

Some people always want to shit on everyone else's parade, don't worry about the court rushing thing.

If they can't build on this, they can't build on anything!

2/11/2009 9:27:10 PM

no, they lost to GT last week

and we beat them how many years in a row?

why rush?

and they almost blew it

well i talked shit about wake fans for rushing when they beat d00k as a top 10 team a few weeks ago...i'm just trying to be consistent. This doesn't really bother me that bad, but beating wake in raleigh isn't a new thing.

2/11/2009 9:29:37 PM

^^^^^Because 2 years ago losing to them was considered a letdown. Just because they got up there early this season, they still aren't a top program and beating them shouldn't be that big of a deal to us.

They were still the #7 team in the nation coming into this week. A win over a top 10 team that is a rival is worthy of a court rushing, especially with how our season has went. It's good for the fans and the players.

2/11/2009 9:30:30 PM

this week will be like last week, and they will fall out of the top 25



so what

2/11/2009 9:31:22 PM

MAN HOW YALL GONNA RUSH THE COURT I MEAN WE WON THE DADGUM CHAMPIONSHIP BACK IN 83

ACT LIKE YOU BEEN THERE, WATCH ME

IM GONNA LEAN ON THE WALL

ARMS CROSSED WITH AVIATORS AND A POPPED COLLAR

HAVE FUN ON THE COURT, LOSERS

"What did he say?"

He said something along the lines of "North Carolina State has just beaten Wake Forest. Somehow they managed to hang on to the lead, unlike the 18 points they blew against Virginia Tech this past weekend, which they have a habit of doing."

I know that's not word for word, but pretty much, State won, but they suck.

If I'm there, I'm on the court no doubt. Anybody that says otherwise is just retarded.

Top 10 team, quazi-rival, and we actually hold on for a win (possibly exorcising that demon this year). If that's not worthy of a court rush, what the fuck is?

2/11/2009 9:37:16 PM

2/11/2009 9:37:30 PM

he just said

State beat Wake

don't blame him it is a suprise

2/11/2009 9:37:37 PM

We almost blew a 20 point lead. That's shameful.

2/11/2009 9:43:42 PM

^ keyword: almost

2/11/2009 9:50:09 PM

yeah, let's just pretend this is a loss and move over to the credibility watch thread so we don't get out of rhythm.

honestly, almost blowing a 20pt lead is shameful. but we didn't actually blow that lead did we? take it as a win and move on.

i swear, one day we'll win the NC after nearly losing a 15pt lead and some people would still complain about nearly losing the lead instead of enjoying the win. i guess that's part of being a state fan.

2/11/2009 9:51:42 PM

In that scenario, the fact that we even got there would be enough to not make that a negative situation. But just because we beat a top-10 team (that won't even be ranked by the post season) doesn't save this season.

The alternative is coming back from a 20 point deficit...and losing...would you have preferred that?

2/11/2009 9:55:44 PM

^Yes, honestly I would.

2/11/2009 9:56:45 PM

dumb.

2/11/2009 9:57:14 PM

Holy shit you're retarded

If you'd honestly prefer any loss to any win, then honestly you're an idiot

if you think we're good enough to hold on to big leads against the upper echelon of the conference then you are delusional...teams are going to go on runs against us, the best we can do is try to hold on, no shame in that

2/11/2009 10:01:34 PM

What does it matter at this point? At this point we'd have to win the ACC Championship for this season to be anything close to being considered a success. And we won't be able to take down Duke or UNC, and I doubt we can beat Wake again. I used to be die hard hopeful, but the past 3 years have turned me into a cynic.

2/11/2009 10:01:47 PM

^lol this guy's hilarious. ya lets just lose.

2/11/2009 10:02:26 PM

2/11/2009 10:02:34 PM

We won that's all I care about. Let the fans storm the court, it was against the #7 rated team in the country.

2/11/2009 10:03:17 PM

A win is a win. Some of you guys need to remember that the other team practices too. Good teams make runs. At least we held them off.

2/11/2009 10:05:16 PM

Yeah, baby steps...

blow big lead and lose

blow big lead and win

maintain small lead and win?

maintain big lead and win??

WE SHALL SEE

2/11/2009 10:07:06 PM

so because we can't have a successful season we should continue to lose. im not following the logic

i like this

2/11/2009 10:13:07 PM

Wake beat UNC, Duke, and Clemson. They're a damn good team. Everyone knew they'd eventually get hot and state would get cold. Thank god we had a giant cushion to work with.

2/11/2009 10:14:03 PM

^^I'm not saying we should keep losing, I'm saying this one win doesn't change anything.

so you're saying you're going to be a fungal dick and not enjoy a win?

Just got back from the game, that was fucking awesome!!!

I was the dude that busted ass as we rushed the court

2/11/2009 10:21:38 PM

how did we pull out a gangsta ass win like this?

2/11/2009 10:27:52 PM

wow this page got retarded real quick

2/11/2009 10:28:46 PM

we showed up...high energy, multiple defensive sets, playmaking from multiple players, and for the most part good defense

2/11/2009 10:28:59 PM

^^^Because if we were going to pull a win like this, it would have to be on the only night it would be overshadowed by another rivalry.

2/11/2009 10:29:56 PM

lol costner said in the postgame that he was surprised the fans rushed the court. he laughed and said i didn't know we rushed the court for beating the number 7 team in the country.

as if that's not a big deal for this team

we almost blew a 20 point lead

wake wasn't playing like the #7 team in the country

wake has been on somewhat of a losing streak

we didn't come back from an "insurmountable" deficit

there was a very long, boring, and moment-killing timeout before the last sequence of the game where everyone was just standing there with the intention of rushing (long planned out rushes kind of defeat the point)

the crowd turnout was kinda lacking...could have been filled in a bit more

the endzone crowd had kind of a "oh...i guess we're rushing..." response to the sideline and higher up sections crowding down

Costner blew it off
