predictions for Clemson/Tarholes?
Jan 25, 2014, 9:37 AM
|
|
I believe we have the talent to finally win at Chapel Hill.
Also believe that the Holes free throw average is a little off from years past so the refs may have a little harder time helping.
If we play Clemson d and keep it in the 50's we win.

if the beauty contest is decided by talent alone, they win.

clemson plays together, plays hard, takes dooshbagroy's best shot, then let all that unc talent eat each other when the pressure is amped.

UNC 76 - Clemson 52
Jan 25, 2014, 10:02 AM

Unfortunately we do not have any scorers stepping forward.
In both the Pitt and FSU games, I was looking for a scorer to emerge after we got down by 20. When down big, there is no pressure - but alas, no player stepped up.

Just saying....

I believe Nc's desire to keep the streak going, is stronger than Clemson's will to break it. As past year's have shown...when Clemson is at their best, and Nc is at their worse. The Tarheels still prevail.

Talent?? now
Jan 25, 2014, 10:30 AM

Our 08 and 09 teams had a lot more talent than this team.
The biggest thing is this UNC team is not the 08 or 09 teams.
Still we lose by 12-15.

And that is my point. In no way am I saying this is one of our most talented teams, I'm basing it on the amount of talent UNC has of right now.

They still have 3-4 NBA players on that roster

to our "maybe 1". If UNC plays well we have zero shot.

sorry, but not this time. Maybe in two years.
This CU team is a possible sweet sixteen team - in the NIT.

I'll be able to watch a good 10 minutes before I feel
Jan 25, 2014, 10:51 AM

nauseous and will attempt to quit watching it, if history repeats itself. I can stomach a loss and accept the mourning but I simply can't man up when we lose unfairly.
I cannot stand to watch the players that have worked so hard realize that frustration. It's just wrong and it is being done by grown adults who, ironically, should be the very ones showing fair play and professional objectivity.
My view for example - Boogie to me got robbed of his Clemson legacy with that final shot (top 10 bball moments if not top 5 for some) by the very one that plays the "class act" in bball persona. He took that away from Boogie and it is just wrong.
UNC is ground zero in this realm of robbery. I hope to God it won't happen this time, but not holding my breath

Jan 25, 2014, 11:03 AM

least 2-1 difference on the line at the very least. OP used to talk about 3-minute segments or fragments to minimize runs. Sounded good to me lol
I just want to see a fair game
That's all

UNC 50+ refs10 to Clemson 56
Jan 25, 2014, 10:52 AM

The only way we win is if UNC shoots 20% from the foul line while the refs are trying their best to help keep the streak alive.

I'm focused and ready.(I hope the team is too!) I'm sick of the streak and it ends tomorrow night! We'll finish the game just like the in movie Hoosiers, only four players will be on the floor as everyone else will have fouled out! They'll be known as the Fab Four! "Tigers win 60-54!"

Did someone remember to pay off the referee's?
Jan 25, 2014, 11:22 AM
|

Or at least stop UNC from bring their personal officiating crew.
If it is a fairly called game, we have a very good chance to end the streak.

Could be 75 -59 blue boys but I am hoping for 65 - 60 good guys.

So I'll predict a loss to UNC, as well and hope I'm wrong again.

I think CU wins in the unlikely event the zebras don't bail-out the Tar Holes.

Nnokko and KJ combine for five fouls in first 8 mins
Jan 25, 2014, 2:46 PM

To suck their aggressive defensive play out of the arena and we give up tons of easy baskets - lose big as a result. Refs will counter with some make up calls once the game is out of reach as o it doesn't look as fixed on paper.

49-3 game called in 1st half due to Clemson fouling out.
Jan 25, 2014, 2:50 PM

That's freethrow's count not score. Score will be Clemson 26 holes 14 when the game is called.
