Well, with no chance of clinching 4th, hopefully the guys will play better.

3/4/2012 4:22:34 PM

Isnt this a better match up though?

since duke is the two, if we get the 5th seed we play them...if we would have gotten 4th it would have lined us up with UNC right?

3/4/2012 4:23:29 PM

Creighton by 9 6, with the ball, less than a minute

billy packer

^no, after our playin game we'd play UVA...the winner faces UNC

3/4/2012 4:24:01 PM

Hey since the 4 is out of play maybe we will win now

3/4/2012 4:24:54 PM

^^^ pretty sure that 4 and 5 play each other, and the winner of that game will in turn play #1

go fuck yourself skokiaan

if we beat VT, beat BC/Wake/GT, beat UVA and lose to UNC, we're dancing

Why did the announcers say Miami has the #5 seed locked and our game doesn't have an impact on seeding?

3/4/2012 4:28:50 PM

I love how the feeble-minded virulently react to the truth

3/4/2012 4:29:35 PM

we could be 11-7 in conference and 22-11 overall before we even play UNC

fact

This. Anyone who thinks state can get in without getting to sunday in the ACCT is delusional or completely lacks any understanding of how selection works.

3/4/2012 4:32:13 PM

ASU giving Arizona a hell of a game

3/4/2012 4:33:33 PM

^^so the ACC is only going to get 3 teams in the big dance? wanna bet?

I wish I had the energy to save that quote for later when you are wrong. We win tonight and get to the UNC game and we are in. Most analysts I have seen have at least 5 teams from the ACC in.

[Edited on March 4, 2012 at 4:35 PM. Reason : whoops... just did]

3/4/2012 4:35:31 PM

then factor in the 30 point asswhooping UNC will lay on us and get back to me

3/4/2012 4:37:15 PM

then factor in UNC losing their first game to the 8/9 seed and get back to me

3? WTF are you talking about. Virginia has quality wins on their resume. State's best win is over Miami who isnt even top 50 RPI. ACC will def get 4, maybe 5 depending on how Miami/NCSU do in the tournament - but state has to make it to sunday.

Beating UVA is 100% not enough for state to get in. Mark it.

3/4/2012 4:38:21 PM

Never realized the outcomes were predetermined

Why have I wasted so much of my life watching these games

Yeah they did beat Michigan in November for their one quality win of the season. Good point.

3/4/2012 4:39:11 PM

@Oregon is a quality win

3/4/2012 4:43:11 PM

jesus tittyfucking christ why are you idiots still feeding the tar hole troll...

3/4/2012 4:43:51 PM

^^lol pac12 lol

3/4/2012 4:44:17 PM

Did you have to look up that oregon was in the pac12? I'd guess yes.

You clearly know very little about basketball. I'm happy you think State has a shot -- gonna make that much more painful when their name isn't called next Sunday. Looking forward to it.

3/4/2012 4:45:54 PM

since you know so much more about basketball than everyone else, whens the last time a team won 11 ACC conference games and missed the NCAA tourney

3/4/2012 4:49:30 PM

Side Note - Mike Scott for 35 points

Fuck Tyler Zeller, Scott should get ACC POY. He is Virginia.

Also ^^ looking forward to State not being selected...? Winning an argument on the teh interwebs is much more fun than seeing your team succeed!

[Edited on March 4, 2012 at 4:51 PM. Reason : ]

Your last 15 posts are all trolling State basketball. When you're allowed back contribute something because you're wasting our time.

3/4/2012 5:01:29 PM

thank you

3/4/2012 5:03:39 PM

Lol some of you must think the tournament only invites 32 teams. They have to fill out the bracket with someone. We stack up fine against the current tourney bubble teams. Especially if we win 3 more games.

[Edited on March 4, 2012 at 5:05 PM. Reason : ]

3/4/2012 5:04:56 PM

Not to mention, as long as these small conferences keep getting the top teams in straight from the tournament championships, there will be plenty of at-large bids up for grabs. (thank you Creighton, on that note!)

thanks herb for knocking arizona off the bubble

3/4/2012 5:47:12 PM

as awful as the PAC-12 is, watch they'll still get 3-4 teams in.

Zona doesn't deserve it but watch them get in just because 12-6 looks good on paper and the pedigree and the western tv markets.

3/4/2012 5:57:35 PM

the top 2 teams are very good

the next 2 are pretty damn good

the other 8 teams in the conference are really bad

I love how Texas loses to KU but moves into Lunardi's field. They're going to get in over us and rage will be had.

3/5/2012 8:45:21 AM

Watch Miami, Texas, and Zona get in.

3/5/2012 8:48:39 AM

It would be fucking sweet if UNC lost to the 8/9 seed.

I see it like this.

- We make it to Sunday, we're in. But just because we're NC State, 90/10 chance.

- We make it to Saturday, lose respectably to UNC, 60/40 chance.

- We make it to Saturday, get blown out by UNC, 50/50 chance.

- We make it to Saturday, lose to a 8/9 seed, 40/60 chance.

- We lose to UVa, 30/70 chance.

- We lose to BC, 10/90 chance.

3/5/2012 9:14:13 AM

I think those are very reasonable scenarios.

3/5/2012 9:20:30 AM

3/5/2012 11:45:56 AM

I still say Zeller looks like this guy:

3/5/2012 12:03:11 PM

I work with and live near a bunch of George Mason fans. It's hilarious listening to them talk about the UNPRECEDENTED and ILLEGITIMATE CAA tournament and it's RICHMOND BIAS in the wake of their loss to VCU. They can't seem to grasp it when I tell them that holding the tournament in NC has been a point of contention forever. They're like "BUT THEY DONT HOLD IT IN CHAPEL HILL" and I'm all "uhh...pretty sure there's more UNC fans living in Charlotte and Greensboro and maybe even Atlanta or DC, chief."

It's like watching them play with Babby's First Sports Conspiracy. Really they're just experiencing NC STATE SHIT.

3/5/2012 12:20:47 PM

3/5/2012 12:59:04 PM

I would trade 3/5 of our starters for Zeller

I'd throw in Painter, too

3/5/2012 1:03:37 PM

"The 3/5s Compromise"

3/5/2012 1:06:48 PM

So you'd be comfortable with a starting lineup of brown, johnson, harris, leslie, and zeller. and de thaey being our only sub? but yeah, tyler's good, and i don't even dislike him. cody's better.

3/5/2012 1:11:20 PM

I like that you knew which three starters I was talking about

Sounds like we're on the same page
