haha it's for a concert that had to pull some strings to get into after it was sold out. last time we were in the Sweet 16, I was at that benefit show the Avett Bros. played at Kings and constantly refreshing my phone. I'll make sure to get tickets for some show the 2nd weekend of the tourney next year now that I know that's the secret.

all our bigs played the best game of the year tonight IMHO. For once they were more fun to watch than our guard trio.

Oh... the pregame comments. How delicious they are

3/21/2015 11:25:47 PM

no doubt. Abu and Freeman pulled down 12 boards each and scored in double digits, and as bad as Nova's guards shot, their bigs were even worse (a combined 3-15)

^5 lol @ "I can't pronounce his name. archi... archi-something-or-the-other."

It may have been mentioned n here already, but I just remembered Dakich's whole "They're too much for NCSU. Villanova has adults. They don't have children. They have adults."

I'd pay to see this movie.

Anyone else laughing about the Nova fans making excuses like "we weren't playing our game. we just played lousy and gave it to them."

I like it. Never admit that you've been playing dogshit competition all year and a middle of the road team from a different conference took you out of it.

^^^right. I haven't watched much big east basketball this season. But from purely a talent standpoint, I can't imagine they've played many teams that are much more talented than we are. And Nova did play poorly at times - missing open layups and stuff. But the big east is a joke compared to the ACC. And that playig in such a strong conference prepares us for games like today

Huge LOL at the ACC being overrated. 1) didn't most people say the big 12 was the best conference? So it's not like they were all sucking the ACC dick all year necessarily. And 2) the ACC has 4-5 legit top 15 teams for the entire season. What exactly is overrated about Duke, UVa, ND? UNC has been somewhat down this season for their standards, but they're still really solid. And louisville has been slumping a bit lately after Jones got kicked off the team. but even then, they beat UVa without Jones. And have been strong all year. The comment about the ACC being overrated was really completely baseless

Man there sure is a not so insignificant amount of talk about "NC State's defense played well, but..... Nova's shots just didnt fall".

Its like, well wtf. So Their shots fell for 33/35 games and they just happened to have an off night tonight? Nah, more like they play teams without guards who can guard their guards and they arent used to playing from behind.

Shit, its not like our outside shots were falling.

3/22/2015 1:44:07 AM

was at a bar in downtown Orlando surrounded by a bunch of UK fans. Apparently. they were rooting for us, so they bought me a few shots when we won

3/22/2015 1:52:25 AM

I was at a bar in Fort Myers with a bunch of shit talking Nova fans sitting at the table next to me. When the game ended, I ran 3 victory laps around their table while pointing and laughing then I sat back down. I'm sure that you'll never guess, but I was/am drunk.

I was also at a wedding. When the ceremony ended it was halftime, so I was able to watch the second half during the cocktail hour. Finished just in time to start the reception.

Great night

Couldn't agree more. Abu put on his man pants today.

Was at a bar in Charlottesville last night near a table of Carolina fans who after the State game, gave my table the standard "No one cares about State", & "We cheered for y'all because we thought it was funny" type of quotes. Then they started comparing CJL's poem from a few years back as the same sort of thing as AFAM.

Getting to deal with that immediately after knocking off a 1-seed was

Anybody have a torrent for the game?

3/22/2015 9:23:08 AM

LOL at Gott during the presser "instead of guarding ummm I can't pronounce his name.. Archi...Archi something or other..." with audible laughter from the reporter.

Oh hey VU Hoops...

3/22/2015 9:30:34 AM

Gott has been pretty troll on his presser and with reporters after the win. Love it. pay the man.

I love how the whole team is celebrating before lacey's three at the half even goes in.

They have so much confidence.

3/22/2015 1:20:23 PM

Did anyone notice the sideline interview with the Nova coach right before the 2nd half started. he seemed clueless while answering her questions and it seemed like he had no answer on countering our play. Seemed surreal how shaken up he seemed.

3/22/2015 1:39:12 PM

Maybe I missed it but where is the Talley celebration video of Nova missing the open three?

3/22/2015 1:40:18 PM
