Every teams fans think that a player always has the game of his life against them, the refs are against them, they are unlucky and the best player has off nights against everyone of their rivals but never them. It's just infuriating when you hear it from Duke and UNC fans..

" Pre-Game Opponent Analysis: Offense: - Not a good perimeter shooting team - Not a good O-rebounding team - Not very good at taking care of the ball - Poor at getting points at the line How that matches up with us: - Do not guard 3's effectively - Average D-rebounding team - Terrible at forcing turnovers - Give up a decent amount of points at the line Advantage: Slight advantage NCSU. While NCSU defense is thoroughly unimpressive they compile their stats for the most part against tournament level competition where SDSU plays a wider scale of opponents. Opponents Defense: - Guards the perimeter effectively - A terrific defensive rebounding team - Does not force turnovers - Does not give up many points at the line How that matches up with us: - Does not score many points from the perimeter - A very good offensive rebounding team - Does not turn the ball over excessively - Does not get a lot of points at the line Advantage: Slight advantage NCSU because the offense is proficient at scoring inside and on transition and has a very high assist rate. Other factors: Pace: NCSU plays slightly more up-tempo but no major difference Size: NCSU typically plays bigger lineups than SDSU but does not sacrifice much quickness or athleticism Experience: Negligible Bench: Slightly more depth for SDSU Location: Slightly less travel and time issues for NCSU Recent play: Advantage NCSU Line NCSU -2.5, o/u 137.5 My prediction: 72-67 NCSU. Not the prettiest of games as early games never are. I think the key factors will be our size/athleticism hurting them on the glass and their turnovers becoming easy transition points for us. My main concerns would be our achilles hooves of giving up wide open, uncontested 3-pointers (like always), foul trouble (like always), inconsistent perimeter shooting (like always), and missing FT's (like lately)."

Didn't realize that's how the tv format goes, thought they made exceptions for local markets. Streams were of good quality for every game yesterday going through chanfeed or firstrowsports.eu so I guess it's back to the stream.

I'd be a little surprised if they didn't broadcast this on some public station in Raleigh (WRAL has several sub-channels still don't they?)

3/16/2012 10:13:49 AM

that's what I'm saying

Maybe it's loser talk, but I honestly am proud of our team and our new coach. Even if we lose today it's quite an accomplishment. I'm not going to /wrists if we lose today.

That being said I will be even more proud when we face Belmont on Sunday.

3/16/2012 11:41:36 AM

No matter how we do this game or make it in the tourney, I'm super excited for next year.

3/16/2012 11:47:06 AM

no, we deserve this.

i'm going to be crushed if we lose.

3/16/2012 11:58:31 AM

I just noticed that VCU beat georgetown and then Kansas last year so its going to be extremely hard for us to the same exact thing this year. Those teams will make it a mission not to get upset two years in a row.

3/16/2012 12:00:13 PM

^^meh, you can't make it a mission all you want but the game is decided on the court. I'm only concerned with today's game for now. Can only win one game at a time. /cliche

3/16/2012 12:02:58 PM

i'm going to have to watch this texas game just to calm my nerves some.
