Box Score

Looking through the Pomeroy archives, it looks like this was State's stingiest defensive effort since the Pack held NC Central to 29 points on 59 possessions back in January 2008. Actually that is the only game in the archives--which go back to 2003--in which the Pack allowed fewer points per possession than they did on Saturday.

Wake Forest's near-perfectly inept performance was a truly herculean all-around effort. They turned the ball over on one out of every four possessions, missed a ton of shots inside and out, and hardly grabbed any offensive boards.

Pick To Click Update: I'm now 1-3 after missing on Chase Fischer, who was just 2-7 from the field.

Dude, you can't fault yourself on your choice

You had a 0% chance of picking a guy to overperform and go all #ncstateshit on us… don’t be too hard on yourself.

I personally would’ve gone with Chinnault… I think he’s the guy who could pull a five 3-pointer effort out his ass…

Every other pick is correct

You better screw this one up!

Can't be too hard on yourself...

Only option would have been Ty Walker and let’s be honest, it still wouldn’t have gotten the job done.

I feel bad for the guys over at BSD. And to them, guys we’ve been there and we feel your pain, hopefully it doesn’t get worse.
