Genius. We should just lose a bunch of games and barely get into the tournament. We'll be unbeatable. Like a fucking super saiyon.

1/16/2013 9:12:20 PM

We don't deserve even a single vote after that shit show. I don't mind losing to a better team but Jesus Christ they were fucking terrible and yet we managed to be even worse.

1/16/2013 9:12:41 PM

This game is proof that NC State Shit is real

1/16/2013 9:12:49 PM

Maryland is supposed to be #3 or #4 in the ACC? Ain't like we lost to BC or Wake. Played terrible, didn't deserve to win, so I'm not all that beat up about the L. Both teams deserved the L.

Except that Zo was kinda hot. He had already hit a couple threes and a pull-up jumper in the last few minutes. I'm not saying he can't kick it out to Wood...but I don't think you run your normal offense on that play...you know...the offense that has sucked all game long.

Played like shit and lost by one. Crowning achievement of Turgeon's career.

1/16/2013 9:13:53 PM

At least we covered the spread so face shouldn't have lost any money.

Think positive guys.

1/16/2013 9:14:09 PM

i love game threads after state losses

jk, it makes me hate all of you fairweather faggots

1/16/2013 9:14:28 PM

Hey guys,

We can still win the ACC and get a great seed in the tournament

Fuck this game, it aint shit

1/16/2013 9:14:51 PM

Maryland is prolly between #4-6 in the league. Top 6 is pretty distinguished...Duke, Miami, NC State, Maryland, UNC and FSU. After that, its a crapshoot. I knew we were going to lose some games in the ACC...but this was winnable. Hopefully we come out like gangbusters against Clemson to get this taste out of our mouth. That was a shitshow.

1/16/2013 9:15:04 PM

take down the banners

1/16/2013 9:15:12 PM

How the hell was that bad coaching??? If it wasn't for the switch to a zone, we dont even have an end of game situation. How do you know Gott did tell them to foul and the players failed to execute? Also, it wouldnt have matter if there was a block out. Not saying Lesile lost us the game but it is a stretch to blame a game where our team shoots 35% on coaching.

From PackPride: "Gottfried sucks as a coach"

1/16/2013 9:15:38 PM

we should be able to win the next 4 games...

1/16/2013 9:16:00 PM

My analysis: Wood has to knock down that shot from the corner. No excuses.

1/16/2013 9:16:36 PM

We lose 2, maybe 3 the rest of the way out.

1/16/2013 9:17:05 PM

Really wanted the right column to be all green w's on espn's schedule page.

1/16/2013 9:17:43 PM

I'm just happy my boy TBDV got some playing time

1/16/2013 9:18:28 PM

i was fairly impressed with our team for not shutting it down, actually. the first half was atrocious but whatever, i had written this game off months ago and it was a lock after the duke win.

not sure if the credit I would normally give to the coach should be going to brown in this situation, though.

i dont really give a shit about the loss because it's meaningless. we'll be in the tournament, we won't be playing this joke of a team and if brown plays like this we'll likely do very well.

1/16/2013 9:19:40 PM

we'll all be happy if maryland beats the holes next game

1/16/2013 9:20:31 PM

That WAS NOT bad coaching. The players defended well and Len just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

Look at the bright side. When was the last time NC State was good enough that fans of the other team felt the need to rush the court after beating them?

1/16/2013 9:20:35 PM

Speaking of Vandy getting minutes, I'd like to see how many minutes TJ Warren got. I know he started off shooting like 0-5, but it seemed like we kept him on the bench for far too long.

If you get him out there with CJL and Rich on that zone and people actually put their hands up or get in a defensive stance like they're supposed to, they wouldn't have gotten crap inside the arc.

1/16/2013 9:22:08 PM

On the bright side, things could be worse

We could be Manti Te'o right now

1/16/2013 9:22:34 PM

If we keep playing like that we might win 2 or 3 more all year. This playing to our competition shit is starting to get really old. As terrible as Maryland played any other top 25 team wins that game by 10 if not 20 points.

1/16/2013 9:22:34 PM

Yeah Maryland is a terrible matchup for us. We rely on dominating down low on offense and Maryland isn't going to let anyone do that to them.

Hopefully we manage to avoid them in the ACC tournament

if that's what you're gonna go with, does that mean that Duke experienced Duke shit on Saturday?

Do you even watch basketball? Teams have off nights, and certain teams are just bad matchups with other teams. It happens.

Maryland played terrible on offense and missed a lot of easy shots ... but they sure as hell didn't play terrible on defense.

1/16/2013 9:29:31 PM

ITT we learn that Doss2k is retarded

1/16/2013 9:29:38 PM

Ugh.... Was behind on the DVR and fucking Leslie again goes for the superstar block rather than boxing Len out... Jesus christ

1/16/2013 9:29:40 PM

We better get used to being other peoples super bowl

1/16/2013 9:30:23 PM

No, if we keep playing like "that" I.e. the way we've been playing for most of the season we will finish close to 12-6 just like Ive been saying for a month now.


Seriously guys do you have any critical thinking skills?

Ill go back to rational thinking tomorrow but for now after watching that game Ill stick to overreacting

1/16/2013 9:34:43 PM

at least the Te'o thing happen or this would be the lead story on SC. probably front page on CNN.

for real. i'm pretty pissed about the game, and i know i'm a lot more calm and rational than a lot of TWW Sports Talk-ers. I'd hate to be their significant other right now, if they have one.

Goddamn that game sucked so bad.

1/16/2013 9:53:14 PM

so are we downgraded to a bubble team now? first four out?

1/16/2013 9:57:48 PM

We'll be lucky to make the ACCT.

1/16/2013 9:59:30 PM

WOW! That game was hard to watch. It just sucks how we lost. I wouldn't be quite as upset, if we had played good and lost about 80-70, or something like that.
