Or after 6. Cause let's be honest who actually remembers anything the night of Zapps beer fest?


If it's after 6 I'll just be "responsible".

I'm just worried about Mickey's health. They have some pretty solid post players.

Do the teams that play at night on Thursdays and Friday's normally plat at night on the Saturdays and Sundays as well.

Been so long since we've been in I don't remember. I do recall we played days both times in 2009 Butler and UNC. I can remember IONA was a late afternoon and I think A&M was too.

All I know is that they decide immediately after all games are completed on Thursday. I think it is based off matchups and which ones are most intriguing but Im not sure.

I think the disappointing performance against Auburn serves as a blessing in disguise and they come out strong.

Tigers ice it with free throws in the final minutes.

75-71

Were Mickey not at like 50% I'd be very confident about our chances. Hell, I'd give us a great shot vs Nova.

Sweating bullets instead.

Someone finally needs to ask the tough question about this matchup. How quickly into the game will Tom Gugliotta and Chris Corchiani be ejected from the stands?

We'll be okay as long as Karl Hess isn't one of the officials (he's the one who booted them). However, he's now banned from ACC games, although I don't know if that carries over into the NCAA tournament.

Holy shite. I didn't know he did all that. He pulled himself from AAC and SEC games also. I think it's safe to say he ain't working the tourney.

Nice as usual SoS. Push the tempo, (Especially if Gray and TQ are playing their A games) score a bunch in trasition and 40 plus in the paint. If Hornsby continues his hot streak, so much the better. The Tigers A game is ten-15 points better than the 'Packs A game IMO.

Yeah he's a huge jackass. The ACC kept him away from our games after the ejections, which happened in 2012, until this season when we played Wofford. In his first game officiating us in 2 years, he gives Gottfried a (very unwarranted) technical 5 minutes into the game. We go on to lose to Wofford. At home.

He's got an agenda and has no business in college basketball.

SOS,

Everybody is jumping to conclusions that we will have a huge advantage down low. On paper, I agree. But how did NCSU beat Duke and Okafor? Did they get him in foul trouble early? Shoot lights out that night?

Yea, I mean Okafor played really well against us honestly. But our bigs did a pretty good job inside offensively. We had a bunch of blocks that game tho. Kyle Washington his a three though which is pretty ridiculous. Lacey and Turner both were on fire from deep at points
