Didn't we play Cal in the First round a few years back? '03?

hopefully California won't know that Cedric Simmons is the worst rebounder ever among men with 7'4" wingspans

3/13/2006 11:24:40 AM

He'd be great if he'd actually TRY.

Jump for the ball once in awhile.

" 3) Can we please ban N.C. State from post-season play? I feel like every year, N.C. State is in a 7-10 game, and every year, I have no idea if it can win or not. The same 15 players seem to have been there forever; Herb Sendek is always embattled; the team is always better than I think but worse than its unexpected success should make it; and the Wolfpack is like my personal college-basketball Schrodinger's cat--the outcome is both until I pick one (and then it's always the other)."

I'm stoked, mother fuckers. We're gonna beat the team that just beat UCLA. Bring it on, Texas!!!

3/16/2006 12:29:26 AM

I have a horrible secret to confess:








I picked us to beat Cal. I'm a glutton for punishment.

3/16/2006 1:17:23 AM

Bodog has us as 1.5 point favorites.

I hate to say it but I'm reeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyy tempted to bet against us.

3/16/2006 1:23:52 AM

probably a safe bet. I am paying penance from last year. Could have won $900 if i picked us over uconn

3/17/2006 4:40:48 PM

Aftering seeing Wisconsin shit the bed against Arizona and looking at how shitty they did at the end of the season, I could not help but worry that we'll suffer the same fate. Granted some hot teams lost in the 1st round too (Syracuse, Xavier, and Iowa), but the really cold teams like Oklahoma and Wisconsin looked horrible and we are about as cold as anyone.

Please show up tonight State. The seniors can not go out on a 5 game losing streak

Our first game of this years NCAA tourney and this thread only hits 3 pages.

Poor.

3/17/2006 5:06:22 PM

that's because the entire sports talk section hit 3 pages with "FIRE HERB OMFG" threads and such

and NyM was right, everyone's post count skyrocketed when that debate begain. i think i raised my post count per day from 7.3 to 7.8 or whatever it is now. that's pretty significant

Knowing that Stanford stomped Wake earlier this week does not make me anymore confident about this game. Looking at Cal's schedule does though. Other than a few impressive wins over Washington, Arizona, and UCLA, they were pretty mediocre IMO.

3/17/2006 5:30:02 PM

I assume this has already been noted but we are actually 2.5 poitn favorites now...


I think we either win by 5-6 or lose by 15... not much middleground with us it seems

3/17/2006 5:32:18 PM

yeah the line moved a bit since the open

i agree

we either win by 5-10 or get blown out the fucking water in the first 10 minutes

3/17/2006 5:33:41 PM

if we jump to like a 12-2 lead to begin, then start worrying

3/17/2006 5:35:23 PM

If we're the favorite and I was a gambling man, then I'd have to put money on Cal. I just cannot see us covering shit.
