Texas Hoops vs. Wake Forest: Post Mortem
Last post-mortem of the season, so we've got that going for us, which is nice. Just a few thoughts on the game. I'll do a season wrap up and preliminary preview in the next few days to tie everything in. First off, it's a challenge to continue to write these and not repeat what's already been...

If we can stop Randolph Childress we have a chance.
A Wake Before The Funeral
What happens when a stoppable force meets a movable object? We'll find out on March 18th. Meet Wake Forest. This game will be watching drunks trying to brawl. Neither belligerent will land a punch, and it will be viewed by both fanbases with equal measures of horror, embarassment, and...

NC State Takes Care Of Wake Forest, 76-40
I'll get to the stats whenever the official box score is released, but the numbers really are beside the point on days like today. Wake Forest looked disinterested and lost throughout Saturday afternoon's game and probably would have lost to last year's Wake team with this performance. I'm not sure...

Wake Forest 34, NC State 27
I had a wedding to attend Saturday afternoon and because of that I only caught the first and last five minutes. Not such a bad deal, as it turned out. From now on I'm going to try to schedule a wedding for every road game at Wake Forest. That way nothing will get broken since I won't have the...
Talking Wake Forest With Blogger So Dear
While taking a break from pulling his hair out over the basketball team's problems and the football team's agonizing loss at Syracuse, Blogger So Dear editor Martin Rickman was kind enough to answer a few of my questions about the Deacs. 1.) Wake Forest's first game ended in disappointment, but...
Eight Years Of Futility
This is one of those things I knew but had to see in print for it to really hit home. It's been ten years since NC State last won a football game in Winston-Salem: George Bryan, a senior tight end, said that all of the N.C. State players are aware of the losing streak and also that Wake Forest has...
We've Been Going About This Throwback Thing All Wrong
I love everything about this photograph, which was taken at Memorial Auditorium in 1942. NC State won the Southern Conference tournament that year, and Bones McKinney, seen here drinking from the water bucket of triumph, had been named to the All-Tournament team. I've seen the bucket and ladle...
