well, kind of lame.
Couldn't agree more. Feels like we play them all the time. How about an interesting ACC opponent that would generate national attention like, oh, I don't know, NOTRE DAME?!
I am going to start setting aside a fund to get you to attend as many games as possible.
GAH!
Interesting. I did not know NC State moved to the American Athletic Conference.

Slow golf clap for this guy!

That's going to be a great matchup! Xavier has a very athletic team...I think they lose Stainbrook in the middle.
Same here. Any recommendation on how to get tickets for this?
My NC State friends down here are saying there should be no problem getting tickets. Should be able to got to StubHub or the like and get relatively inexpensive tickets.
play UNC, Notre Dame, or a rematch with Louisville.
This is exactly what I hoped for! I'm moving to Raleigh in June so I'm getting tickets for sure. Look for me, I'll be the one wearing all Maize and Blue.
+1. Live here also and looking forward to it.
Why do we always play the same teams? I can't tell you how many times w'eve play Duke, NC state, boston college. When's the last time we played North Carolina?
playing NC State in the challenge - second time at NC State.
Oddest matchup to me - Wisconsin at Syracuse. Final four team vs 9-9 ACC team... Not sure how good Wisconsin will be next year, and it's at Syracuse, but not set up as a clash of the titans.
...in the three previous games vs NC State the home team has won by 7 points each time...
If Wisconsin can be anything near what they were this past season and for several before that, this game would tend to sound more like, "Alright, Syracuse, go to your corner and when the bell rings, Wisconsin will come over and suck the life out of you..."
In these early season games, I like it when the matchups are solid teams but one's where we're not a heavy underdog. NC State should be a very even matchup since they went to the sweet 16 last year and are returning a lot of talent. This season is stacking up nicely with Xavier and SMU and the other tournament. It doesn't have the sex appeal of Duke, UNC, or Louisville, but given this past season, Michigan would not be ready to take on those guys at this point in the year (in my humble opinion). NC State is winnable.
Oops, infamous double post
I'd love to see us play Notre Dame at some point. Louisville would be cool just because it was the title game a couple years back.
That said, NC State is a good team. It's not a terrible matchup.
I'm in WS too! I'll be at the game for sure!
I'm not complaining... I get to go to a Michigan basketball game!! Woooohooo
I'm only an hour away. looks like I'll need to make plans to attend this one.
in the triangle and want to go to this.
Do we turn this into a Triangle Posbang thread?
Live in NOrth Raleigh...this just made my day. Pre-game at Raleigh Times?
Durham resident checking in. Where are we meeting for beers before the game?
Pinehurst area, may have to get tickets!
