I thought it’d be tighter than this. Guess I was fooled by the BC game.

I’ve been skeptical of State, even after the win over South Carolina, but I have to wonder if this team isn’t a Final Four contender. The Jones and Brown-Turner duo (plus Boyd if they get her back) offer two of the best wings/small forwards in the league to complement some speedy guards and Cunane inside. I’m used to NC State starting hot and faltering a bit mid-season, but I could see this team heading into March with 0-2 losses.

Good game thread @LETTERL .Very informative and glad you included the final score. Sometimes some of these game threads will just fade away from the game and I have to go to the NCAA website for the final score.
