NC State Football Post Season and NC State Basketball Updates

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!!!!

Its been a couple of months since I last posted about football, honestly because I lost hope. I know it's bad when I lose hope but I didn't see the Pack coming back from a four straight conference lost. But, to my surprise, we won at Syracuse, beat Wake Forest and dominated UNC to make it to the Bitcoin Bowl. Now, us Pack fans were hoping for a better bowl, but come on folks, at least we made it to one. Especially after going 3-9 last season. Plus UCF beat Baylor last season in the Fiesta Bowl, so they are very good. One of the talented teams we will face this season. I just want to reiterate on our dominating performance against UNC, how we showed we wanted respect and wanted to get revenge on last season beat down. BEAT UCF!!!! GO PACK!!!!

Now on to basketball. We currently are 10-3, 1-0 in conference play. Tied with first place (yay!). The three losses were against @Purdue, Wofford and West Virginia. We played decent against Purdue, so I am not as mad about that loss. The losses against Wofford and WVU is what I am more concerned about. From what I read, we played like complete crap in those two games. Hardly any help from the bigs. Relied primarily on the guards and perimeter shooting. There is one thing that I have noticed in the games that I seen, and that is we suck against good press and zone defense. We keep passing around the perimeter and hardly go inside to score. The WolfPack needs to figure how to drive it to the basket if they want to go to the tourney and make a good run in it. We still need Trevor and Ralston to do their thing.

Let me just say that Trevor Lacey has been a blessing. He is consistent with his scoring and he became our "go to" guy almost instantly. Transferring from Alabama, he was a double digit scorer in his sophomore season. We are lucky to have him on our squad.

Shout out Cat Barber, Ralston Turner, Trevor Lacey, Kyle Washington, The Martin Twins, Beejay Anya, Abu, and Leonard Freeman. Merry Christmas guys!! Go Pack!!

Can The Pack Bounce Back?

Ok, so Thursday night, UNC (University of North Carolina @ Chapel Hill), kicked our butts. That was the 17th consecutive lose in the series. It did not help that we played horrible, like in the Georgia Tech game, and that UNC came out more focused, more determined than us. But the question, that many of us Wolfpack fans are asking, is "can the Pack bounce back from that loss?" If you ask me, I believe that we can. From what I seen about NC State athletics, when we embarrass ourselves, by losing pretty bad, we always find a way to come back with a BANG! I believe that is what we will do Saturday night against Virginia.








I also want to note what Scott Wood told a dumba** reporter. The reporter asked about not having beaten the Tar Heels in his career, and his response was "Has your wife ever cheated on you?"......then he continued to say "that's how frustrating it is." To me, if anyone was offended by his response to the reporter's question, then you need to get out much and get that ear of corn out your butt. Of course, he apologized for the response. I wouldn't have apologized. He is still a kid. It is just like never beating your older brother at basketball. So I say to Scott Wood, POWER TO THE PLAYERS!




Go Pack!!!
Beat UVA!!!
