i know its early but if we can somehow finish with the 8th seed, that means we don't play on Thursday right? And its starting to look pretty certain that we'll need to win the acc tourney to go dancing unless some miracle shit happens

2/17/2008 5:59:46 PM

only the top 4 seeds get a Thursday bye

2/17/2008 6:00:43 PM

well damn

2/17/2008 6:01:41 PM

where is it this year? Charlotte? Tampa?

2/17/2008 6:02:03 PM

Charlotte

Does anyone know if tickets are available through the student wolfpack club?

3/4/2008 11:40:50 AM

I got several tickets but I can probably make more money selling them to people dressed in various shades of blue

3/4/2008 11:43:21 AM

^^As far as I know, all student tickets to the tourney were done in a lottery earlier in the year and there was not a portion set aside for SWPC.

3/4/2008 11:52:43 AM

#12 seed FTW!!

3/4/2008 1:46:07 PM

1st team in ACC history to win the ACCt from the 12 seed!


GO PACK!!!

3/4/2008 5:27:41 PM

look at the positives:

- no lofty expectations for next season to live up to
- seemingly can't finish any worse in the conference than this year, ie, "nowhere to go but up"
- thats about it...but hey, thats still TWO things

3/4/2008 5:29:05 PM

Other potential positives for next season:

1. Johnson can't possibly play any worse than he did this season.

2. Costner can't possible get any fatter than he is this season.

3. Sidney can't have any worse off court problems than he's had this season.

3/4/2008 6:21:58 PM

depending on what if we win/lose the wake game - we get either maryland or miami in our first round game (winnable - especially if miami) - then VT in our second round game (also winnable)

its feasible we could get to the championship?



















and lose?

3/5/2008 9:33:59 AM

If we play Maryland in the opening round we're one and done. I'd rather us lose this Saturday than play fucking Maryland. Sid has never played well against Md.

3/5/2008 3:15:11 PM

i think anything is possible. I mean those first few games and maybe unc or duke being upset early so we don't have to play them and then, BAM victory

3/5/2008 7:23:15 PM

haha, i expect one and done this time around

3/5/2008 7:25:04 PM

I thought this was about the women's team, who I expect to be 2 and done. Oh well.

ATTENTION all Wal-Mart shoppers: Be sure to pick up your S.I. with Tyler Hansblow on the cover and be the first to proclaim your lifelong affiliation to UNC!!!!!! (sans 2001-2002 of course) Just in time for the ACCT where you can congregate with other Wal Mart shoppers in the Queen City, it's high time for Wal-Mart fans everywhere!

3/6/2008 2:50:48 PM

^fuck i hope they go out in the sweet 16

3/6/2008 6:05:45 PM

The next couple of weeks would be a nice time for the dreaded SI curse to pop up, and show it's ugly head.

3/6/2008 7:21:56 PM

well a 16 seed does have to win eventually

i'd love to see it happen to any team just to see how much it would fuck up everybody's brackets

3/6/2008 7:24:14 PM

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!

3/6/2008 7:34:31 PM

I know it was women's basketball, but this is the ACC Tournament thread. Women lost in OT to a shitty Clemson team by 5. Highlight of the day was when Lee Fowler came over to us with a very odd smile asking if we were gonna get it done today. I can't take that guy seriously without a glass of wine or a cigar in his hand. Scratch that. I can't take him seriously period. Other than that, hopefully the men will pull of a win and suprise the hell outta me next week. Gotta beat Wake Saturday first.

3/6/2008 8:53:00 PM

No. We don't gotta beat Wake. I do not want them to play Maryland.

I'd rather them play Kansas, UCLA, UNC then Tennessee in a row for the Tournament than have them play Maryland. I think.

3/6/2008 9:38:15 PM

I'm anxious for this tourney

3/6/2008 10:17:40 PM

Got my tickets a while ago, not a good year for a wolfpack fan to go but hey maybe we can pull something out.

3/6/2008 10:33:35 PM

i was gonna buy tickets, but i thought better of it. if duke can keep the 1 seed and we can play them after winning a first round game, that'd be ok with me. (better than playing carolina)

[Edited on March 6, 2008 at 10:47 PM. Reason : oops]

3/6/2008 10:46:49 PM

I'll be there

3/6/2008 10:48:43 PM

only possible way for us to play duke is to SOMEHOW get the 10th seed and then for duke to lose to carolina

[Edited on March 6, 2008 at 10:48 PM. Reason : and ill be there.]

3/6/2008 10:48:44 PM

well that sucks.

3/6/2008 10:54:25 PM

We shouldn't even be allowed to go to this.....do like the Big East and leave the bottom 4 out.

But.....if we play Virginia Tech, we will win. For some reason we own them.

3/7/2008 12:55:58 AM

haha 8 seed

3/7/2008 8:13:04 AM

I am so pissed that I am missing this shit for NASCAR, even if we do suck donkey balls this year.

Yea, here's to hoping we do finish dead last and VT and Miami finish 4th and 5th. We do match up better against those two teams. That would at least give us hope to reach the NIT

3/7/2008 12:33:29 PM

^^^^ seriously, that doesn't even make sense that we own Virginia Tech and no one else. How is that possible. I mean it's definitely true though.

Sort of like Providence consistently kicking the shit out of UConn... even in their '04 title season PC was there to beat them by 18...

then we can do like the Big East and have different teams in our conference for basketball and different teams in our conference for football

3/7/2008 2:13:05 PM

Lose this weekend, go in as the 12 seed and we will be one and done. Lets just hope we can get back to a bowl in football

3/7/2008 3:03:38 PM

the only reason the big east leaves 4 out is because there are 16 teams in the league. everyone should have a shot in the conference tournament. that's the beauty of college basketball.

3/7/2008 3:43:28 PM

well the good thing is we won't be opening up against maryland i guess...

3/8/2008 2:03:50 PM

please let this season end already

3/8/2008 2:12:44 PM

If Maryland wins @ UVA tomorrow they are the #5 seed....if they lose, Miami will be the #5 seed.
