Deacs, Round Two
The first meeting, way back in mid-December, was an unfortunate sign of things to come for the NC State offense. Most notably, the Pack hit just 36.6% of their twos and shot sub-40% for the game. Wake Forest wasn't a whole lot better, and State got as close as four with about 15 minutes to go...

Deacon Dump 10/30: Aminu a Naismith Candidate, Miami hit by the injury bug
So I have decided to have zero expectations for the game Saturday, which is a shame because that's how it started with the Indians for me. After a few heartbreaking losses, it is just easier to set the bar low. I don't want to do that. But for tomorrow, that's where the bar is going to stay. I am...
