Now don't go lose to BC tonight

Looks like Allison Feaster Strong is the lone non Blue Devil in the pic, in case anyone was wondering.

All 12 players who played tonight scored. BC didn't reach double digits in ANY quarter





FSU lost. Chapel Hill lost.... a great night in ACC hoops. This calls for a extra scoop of Acai Berry in my morning smoothie..... what a day.

BC must have shot something like 10% for the game! It's hard to imagine in the modern era that a team would score only 27 points in 40 minutes of play.

But I'm not going to throw stones. NC State beat Wake Forest tonight, 51-42, in a game where the Wolfpack Women shot 36% from the field and was 0-10 from THREE...while Wake Forest only shot 23% for the game. Wake had almost as many turnovers (12) as made FG (16).

BC's 27 points tonight was the fewest they have ever scored at home (the previous record was set against Boston University in 1979)...and set a new program record for fewest points allowed for Duke, which recorded its 1000th win in program history.

@maple did you see the "Buffalo" Orange play last night?
Not in person (unfortunately!) but I did watch the game. I'm not surprised Syracuse got the upset. They have a good coach and play tough. They've played a lot of ranked teams pretty closely this year.

Of course the one time I don't go see Syracuse play a ranked team at the Dome, they win. :confused::rolleyes:

NC State has now lost 3 of their last 4 and 2 of 3 this week. I suspect the 4th longest Top 25 current streak is about to come to an end. The streak is at 97 weeks, behing UConn-560, Maryland-245 and Stanford-98.

While some shake their head at Tennessee falling out the top 25 after being ranked #5 in preseason, NC State was ranked #10 so their falling is also a bit of a head scratcher as that roster is also extremely talented.

So...Haley Cavinder dropped 33 to lead the Canes to the win. They are tied w/ FSU at 9-4 in conference now.

Miami has 13 points at the half. 7 straight quarters of holding opponents to single digits. :eek:

Im really liking what Lawson is doing at Duke. Apparently a pretty good coach. I can think of a program that probably wishes the offered her the farm. Her recruiting it top notch and it seem people want to play for her and join the sisterhood.

I haven't seen much of Duke this year. That must be some nasty D y'all are playing.

Nasty like a plate of broccoli or asparagus. For what it's worth, Massey has us as the #2 team on defense.

NC State shot less than 30% today -- 21 of 75, and 4 of 27 from THREE. Our ladies just cannot shoot the basketball.

We may not even score against Duke in a couple of weeks.

I know that feeling. It just makes the game so difficult when you can't put the ball in the bucket.

I was at the game and walked by them. Seemed like they had a lot of fun. They were put up on the jumbotron at one point as well. I thought it was weird, but then I remembered the Kara Lawson connection.
