11 seed magic once again... NC State beats #2 Marquette 67-58 to reach Elite 8

NCSU is on a major roll!

 

[TweederGMU]

NC State should of never been an 11, committee showing disrespect to the ACC while Clemson and NC State are saying hold my beer. NC State should of been a 8 or 9 seed.

I’m just happy Carolina has the day off on Sunday to watch the Duke - NC State game. They deserve a break.

Do it again, NCSU!

The Cinderella Effect

A god problem to have?

Cinderella Runs Are Great. But Things Can Get Messy Afterward

Not only that, but Kevin Keatts who’s most famously known by mason fans as the coach who lured Luke Hancock to Louisville.

DJ Burns is so fun to watch. Maybe it’s because I’m also a big fella, but I just love watching big guys display skill and finesse.

The man is awesome!
AND, they beat Duke in BOTH tourneys,
Just like UNC two years ago. Doesn't get any better for basketball fans than that!

Many of my coworkers are NC State and Purdue alums. Gonna be a freaking nerd-off all week.

And yet Clemson and FSU want to break this conference up…

And yet Clemson and FSU want to break this conference up…

They just want more of the revenue pie to close the gap between Big10 and SEC schools. Otherwise they won't be able to compete long-term.

(Assuming this is an okay place to put this since it is a postseason tournament… if not one of the mods I’m sure will swoop down and move it around?). What do people think of this or should we be done with tournaments that don’t begin with N after our rough CIT appearance ?
