I thought it was NC State that wanted to take one for the team, turns out it was Duke :oops:

Up 77-70 with under 5 minutes to go.. 93.5% win probability ... precedes to go scoreless with 4 costly turnovers the rest of the game. Gotta bring this back out

I had the same thought in the 3rd quarter

NC State is going to have start Saturday's semi-final game better than they did in the quarters against Georgia Tech. I'm proud of the Wolfpack Women for persevering though; when they trailed 21-7, things didn't look too good but they got it going on and went on a 26-4 run.

Bet alot of yall State fans are happy that Duke collapsed down the stretch. It would have made a GREAT atmosphere for the second semi-final... but alas...we didnt hold up to our end of the bargain.

Ive always thought that in the ACC.. the winner of the 3/6 matchup has it the worst by far on Saturday. Game didnt end until about 10:30.... so BC probably got back to their hotel around 1am or so... then have to turn around and play at 2:30pm...... and plus this will be their third game about a 40 hour time period.

I wanted a re-match with Duke, since each team won on the other's home floor during the regular season. Whodathunk that BC would finish their game with Duke on a 14-0 run. If BC shoots against NC State like they did tonight, the Wolfpack could be in trouble.

they are gonna have tired legs though..... they were tired against duke... but we let them off the hook. Plus the crowd will be against them. The Louisville and VPI fans in my row were pulling for Duke (because of me) but there wasnt alot of noise outside of the Duke fans tonight.

I do not think Duke played all that poorly down the stretch schematically. They just missed good shots they had been making all game and not by much. It was like BC just sneaked up on them in stealth mode.

Semrau and Walz are pretty chummy right now.. Bout the longest pregame coach conversation I've ever seen. Three or four minutes at least

Really, I don't think NC State is playing well at all. If Duke BC is ever gonna make an ACC final, this is the year to do it.
There, I fixed it for you. :rolleyes:

ND Post Game Press Conference:

Didn't realize how short it was before posting. I'm trying to find the full Press Conference.
Okay I found the full video.

The presser was over at that point, but the Notre Dame video conveniently cut out before Muffet nearly trampled her own player in her haste to get away :rolleyes:

Fast-forward to 1:49 mark for the near-trampling :cool:

It would be so like Florida State to win this game. They seem to always win the games they should lose and lose the game they should win.

Not only will the Coliseum be dead due to lack of crowd enthusiasm...what an ugly color combo that will be on the uniforms. Need some red to add flash and sparkle! ;)

Feel awful for all the Louisville fans in my section. They were checking their pulses and talking about blood pressure medicine.

Are any of the Louisville fans talking about how this affects their seeding/placement? Or are they too preoccupied with the game?

My goodness.. It was a tense inside the coliseum.. I was nervous like I would be of Duke was playing. I asked the couple from Louisville beside me if they were coming back tomorrow... Said it was 50/50... As it was a long drive home to Kentucky
