NC State (13-9, 3-6) TIE #9 ACC
at Miami (9-15, 2-8) #12 ACC

Coming into this game, Miami is on a 7 game losing streak. NC State should come in with much needed rest as they obviously looked a little weak during the late stages of the game Tuesday. Both teams need this win, NC State only needs two more for post-season play in the NIT.. do you believe?

2/7/2007 10:51:45 PM

MIAMI RULES!!!!........

2/7/2007 10:53:28 PM

2/7/2007 11:00:54 PM

lol

2/7/2007 11:09:48 PM

dang i knew miami wasnt good. but i didnt know they were horrible. gotta have this one.

2/7/2007 11:21:19 PM

must win

2/7/2007 11:21:47 PM

Miami was fair last year with their 2 great guards.

Then they left.

Now they suck donkey balls.

2/7/2007 11:26:27 PM

Long as Anthony King is out, Miami shouldn't win an ACC game.

This team is terrible...I feel for Frank Haith.

2/8/2007 12:19:00 AM

ftw!

2/8/2007 12:19:35 AM

mcclinton and clemente are going to make for a hellacious backcourt eventually, it'll be diaz and hite part deux

but in the meantime, they're still garbage, and still without good big men, especially with king out

[Edited on February 8, 2007 at 12:22 AM. Reason : that whole subject/verb agreement thing]

2/8/2007 12:21:26 AM

mccauley/costner should have a field day

2/8/2007 12:27:23 AM

Not to mention they are one more man down already, suspending Hicks indefinitely recently.

it's not good for us, but i want anthony to get healthy :x good guy. deserves to be out there

2/8/2007 1:04:53 AM

71-70 wolfpack

2/8/2007 3:56:08 AM

I say this game is a must win, in terms of righting the ship to a 7-9 or 8-8 season. We cannot drop 2 in a row then come home to play MD.

That being said I think we are too talented to lose this game in Miami.

NCST 69
Miami 55

2/8/2007 10:25:35 AM

hope we win.

2/8/2007 11:55:08 PM

Hicks was the guy that pulled an insane intentional foul on Cam's break away dunk last season. He grabed his leg while the dude was above the rim.

2/9/2007 1:04:37 AM

I better destroy them.

2/9/2007 1:49:54 AM

I'll be there at the BankAtlantic Center in Coral Gables, sitting right behind the State bench.

Miami basketball is horrendous. I feel for Haith. Frank Haith has had a shitty last six months. His nephew gets killed by the NYPD, his team sucks, and he hanging on by a thread to keep his job.

2/9/2007 2:31:14 AM

and we almost hired him lol

2/9/2007 2:37:13 AM

^no we didn't.

2/9/2007 2:49:33 AM

i guarantee you he was in lee's consideration.

so yes, we did.

2/9/2007 3:16:07 AM

and who the fuck are you? We almost hired phil ford, too

2/9/2007 3:45:40 AM

mmm nope. no on phil ford bud.

to anyone who followed the search it was pretty obvious frank haith was a forerunner.

GO PACK

2 more wins and Lowe's first year will be a winning one

is there an update on Atsurs hamstring?

2/9/2007 9:32:41 AM

^ did he injure it again? I haven't heard anything about his hamstring since he started playing again

2/9/2007 10:03:49 AM

well they were always saying he wasnt 100% just wondering what the % was this week

2/9/2007 10:26:00 AM

he looks pretty good to me. a bit tired towards the end of that GT game but they were playing some intense d on him all night so its understandable (plus i bet his conditioning isn't where he wants it because the injury)

Here's hoping that at the stroke of 4pm the screen doesn't go blank saying black out like it did Tuesday night

2/9/2007 1:55:18 PM

I just hope we can win a game

2/9/2007 1:58:13 PM

I agree

this drought we've been on is killing me

2/9/2007 2:01:24 PM

Here's to hoping the Pack can pull off a win and come back to the RBC Rowdies (yeah, i know it's not the same, but something needs to be after RBC) ready to beat up on Fairyland!!!

Pack 68
Canes 54

and McCauley has a career high game!

2/9/2007 2:03:47 PM

the quality of this game is going to be fucking shitty

FSU/Miami games for raycom look HORRIBLE

I like the reverse jinx

that being said

Miami -98
NCSU - 43

me too. he's too good of a coach (and guy) to have such a disappointing time right now. I just want his disappointment to continue for one more game. but in all seriousness Miami should be pretty decent next year, and be able to scare the top teams in the conference. he justs has a pretty young/inexperienced team right now. i hope the U doesn't fire him prematurely.

2/9/2007 10:53:13 PM

Well despite the fact I was there when we lost to Ga Tech (but I was also there for Va tech and UNX) I'll be at East Village again today. Where is everyone else going?

2/10/2007 10:42:11 AM

i think we'll cover the spread.

that said

2/10/2007 11:24:34 AM

^and the ot score?

2/10/2007 12:02:16 PM

come on wolfpack, lets get back on track here.

lets break the formula of winning a game then always losing two in a row.....

2/10/2007 12:43:00 PM

We HAVE to have this one if we want to have any chance of NCAA talk.....

This should be a win....Miami has lost a bunch in a row and that scares me. McClinton/Harris/Clemente may go off on us if they hit their 3s. Im worried about this one actually.

2/10/2007 1:02:29 PM

why is our rpi 107

2/10/2007 1:31:50 PM

At this point, there is almost nothing this team could do that would surprise me. Except for maybe a miracle run through the rest of the season and go far enough in the ACC tourney to push over the bubble. That would somewhat surprise me.

2/10/2007 1:40:01 PM

I could have sworn duke's rpi was higher than 107
