We thought we had a shot.

Will never win a game against UNC that has any implications. NEVER

5/26/2013 1:52:27 AM

1 run on 10 hits.

No team like that deserves a national seed.

5/26/2013 1:52:39 AM

that's not remotely true.

also two of our main competitors lost (in FSU's case lost badly) so we're quite fine

5/26/2013 1:53:22 AM

hey you get to sleep in at least assholes.

5/26/2013 1:53:50 AM

Fuck. I am going to ask for NC State logo'ed razor blades for Christmas. I hate UNC so much.

5/26/2013 1:55:55 AM

How much money is carlos losing per year with this shit squad?

5/26/2013 1:56:26 AM

by leading the nation in strikeouts again and being chosen for team usa again ? prob not much.

5/26/2013 1:57:52 AM

Idk. He pitched 10 innings last night. How much did he get for that?
How much does USA baseball pay him? Sounds like a sweet gig.

5/26/2013 2:00:16 AM

he proved he was a horse that could 1 hit one of the best offenses in the country over 10 innings ...

i'm failing to see the negatives here, or even your point

I dont think you understand how the minors work

5/26/2013 2:02:05 AM

I don't think you understand how money works.

5/26/2013 2:04:11 AM

it's past your bedtime love. go to sleep and dont worry about difficult things.


http://www.crawfishboxes.com/2013/1/7/3846162/carlos-rodon-prize-of-the-2014-draft

is why rodon did nothing but help himself by going to college... I know you're trying to be adorable, but relax

he could have played for the brewers as a 16th round pick making the minors minimum trying to work through rookie league and a-ball ... or he could go to college dominate and turn himself into a potential top 3 pick and make 20-30 times more money just in his signing bonus. That's how money works. Being picked number one overall is a sweet gig... ask Strassburg he got a 7.5mil signing bonus and the league minimum for the minors for first year players is somewhere in the neighborhood of 40k...

in conclusion you're a moron

5/26/2013 2:08:16 AM

well that sucked

how many times did we fuck up winnable situations? did we EVER take that 3rd baseman out?

the biggest nc state shit moment was when williams swung at ball four with the bases loaded...i thought we had it won when the ball came out of the pitcher's hand...that was such a shitty pitch

season isnt over but can we stop inventing more painful ways to lose games against unc?

[Edited on May 26, 2013 at 2:16 AM. Reason : we really needed someone who can hit a fucking home run on this team]

5/26/2013 2:16:17 AM

^ completely agree

5/26/2013 2:20:47 AM

I stayed all 18....im sad

5/26/2013 3:15:23 AM

I too stayed all 18. If we don't get a national seed after FSU goes 0-4 this week and we win 2 and go 18 with UNC, then I quit. It was a good game, but the bats couldn't get it done. Great game Pack!

5/26/2013 3:20:43 AM

stayed all 18 as well. that game was everything i love about baseball (until the end)

5/26/2013 3:21:54 AM

oops

[Edited on May 26, 2013 at 3:22 AM. Reason : first double post ever!]

5/26/2013 3:21:54 AM

I stayed through all 18, too... starting to wonder if we're ever gonna break through ... going to weep softly into my pillow now

5/26/2013 3:22:35 AM

We can't even beat them in fucking baseball? Fuck that.

5/26/2013 3:45:52 AM

It's not like UNC is one of the consistently best baseball programs in the country..

5/26/2013 9:13:07 AM

So...anyone else think our chances at a national seed are still pretty good?

5/26/2013 10:33:59 AM

^Most of the Twitter guys I saw say so. Perfect game and those guys.

8th in the RPI playing the 9th toughest schedule and ahead of FSU now.

5/26/2013 11:01:28 AM

Still no ACC championship since 92... in any men's sport... that's sad

5/26/2013 12:09:13 PM

Just being a fan of baseball that was the best ball game I've ever been too.

5/26/2013 1:25:33 PM

^^^ from a television perspective, it's hard to imagine a college game with better starting pitching.

especially rodon. i had not watched him throw before, that kid is an absolute killer out there. incredible stuff for college... really should be in a pro organization if I'm being honest.

[Edited on May 26, 2013 at 2:34 PM. Reason : where was he drafted out of high school?]

5/26/2013 2:32:23 PM

16th round by the Brewers, but it was known that he wanted to go to college.

5/26/2013 2:43:24 PM

I left after the 17th. Was sitting around a ton of Carolina fans and after the 4th or 5th blown chance by State I couldn't sit there anymore. Each team blew tons of chances, but if State hadn't played absolutely terrible defense in big spots with Rodon on the mound he goes CG, 1 hit, 0 runs and a win. Irritating as hell type of game, but its at least a good enough showing to likely give us a national seed.

5/26/2013 2:43:45 PM

to be fair, one of the errors was his.

5/26/2013 2:54:40 PM

The flip to first was one he could've gotten, but at the same time Senay shouldn't have looked to 2B to even try and get that runner. Ball was hit way too slowly, the minute he looked toward 2B you could tell something was about to go wrong.

5/26/2013 3:12:09 PM

This is UNC's national championship to lose

5/26/2013 3:40:50 PM

The only hit Rodon gave up was the 4th out after one of Clyde's errors. Could've easily thrown a no hitter

And of course those dicks won the championship today

5/26/2013 3:44:22 PM

UNC won the tournament on 3rd baseman errors. They are a great team but damn.

They have to play Vanderbilt sometime.

They will go out first round like they always do

5/26/2013 7:00:44 PM

Selection show tomorrow at Noon on ESPNU

5/26/2013 7:36:25 PM

The Regional hosts will be shown on ESPN's bottomline at 9pm, but the nationals seeds won't be announced until the selection show tomorrow.

Just FYI: LSU beat Vandy 5-4 in 11 innings for the SEC Tourney title.

5/26/2013 8:29:46 PM

Confirmed that we will host a Regional.

5/27/2013 11:52:40 AM

FSU got it over us.

5/27/2013 12:06:37 PM

paired up with #8 Oregon's regional....hope they get upset!

[Edited on May 27, 2013 at 12:09 PM. Reason : ]

Draw isn't bad. But will have to travel across the country to go to Omaha most likely.

5/27/2013 12:09:39 PM

Our regional:
2. Ole Miss
3. William & Mary
4. Binghamton

5/27/2013 12:09:58 PM

Rice, San Francisco, and South Dakota St. are in Oregon's regional

5/27/2013 12:15:09 PM

i didnt realize how good vandy was this year. i remember we beat them in our regional last year.

also, if a national seed doesnt make it out of the first round, is the super regional still played at their campus?

[Edited on May 27, 2013 at 12:23 PM. Reason : q]

5/27/2013 12:21:02 PM

^No. Only Regional winners can host a Super Regional. We win ours and Oregon doesn't win theirs, we host the Super.

5/27/2013 12:25:24 PM
