Bad weather?

The temperature right now is keeping buses on time this morning and once again faith in the weather forecast that we will be dumped on today in the form of rain. If this becomes a missed forecast and school gets out early basketball will be in jeopardy and the dilemma of where and when this game gets moved to.

If the weather cooperates the Gryphons play at Fike tonight. The girls game is a battle for first place since Fike has but one loss. When you are going to play 40% of your conference schedule in eight days every game is important because losses are harder to get over without practice time to correct problems.

Coach K was worried about last nights game with Georgia Tech and asked the students to be unreal with the atmosphere in Cameron Indoor. I couldn't tell any difference in the students last night because they are always unreal. If you have never had the pleasure to be at a Duke game it is worth it to go. I wish I knew how they entire student body is so choreographed with their chants. You must have to take a class in order to be allowed to go sit in the student section at Duke. The students are always a factor at a Duke game.

Carolina loses another one last night but as a Wolfpack fan everyone needs to take it out on Carolina this year. If the Tar heels find someone who thinks they are a point guard they have the inside people to dominant next year. I have said this many times Big people can't score unless someone gets them the ball. Carolina has scoring guards who think they are point guards, a bad combination.

This Sunday is Super Bowl and I think this game is more a toss up than the experts are telling everyone. I'm holding off on my pick until Sunday and we see what the final injury report shows.

Sunday also marks the 37th year in a row that the ACC has had a basketball game as part of the Super Bowl ten hours of pregame hype. Can you Remember the very first Sunday game?

David Thompson tipped a missed shot in at the buzzer at Maryland in 1973 and the Wolfpack beat the Terps 85-84 as State was on their way to an undefeated season.
