WF MBB Game 18: Deacs at BC: Saturday 8 pm: ESPN2

I think we have to make the quarters to get in either by being top 4 or winning on Wednesday.

Fortunately we've played well in the ACC Tourney the past 15 years.

Fell down this rabbit hole, which I recall doing every single year in March but just for "fun":

Last ACCT QF appearance by team:

2022: Duke, Cuse, Miami, BC, ND, VT, UNC, UVA
2021: GT, FSU
2020: Clemson, Louisville, State
2016: Pitt
2009: Wake Forest

Yeah the one thing that makes me anxious overall about being a "good three point shooting" team is that generally means more shots from outside where an off game can be frustrating/keep things closer than they should be (or be a loss). Guess it is just the typical "live by the 3 die by the 3" situation.

Agreed, definitely a risk. I like that we have several good 3 pt shooters though. Helps mitigate one guy being cold. We will certainly have some games where we just cannot get one though.

That's a lot of hubris considering the last decade

Forbes is the opposite of the last decade, though. He has more resting grit and determination than Bzz and Manning ever showed at their best moments.

Sure, I know we aren’t as good as we could be, but we are damn well better than BC. Go stomp them on the road in January ACC play. It’s fine with me that I feel this way.
 
After a decade of absolute futility and far longer with nothing to show in March water those vibes. Let's watch them GROW.

Wake also has several guys who can get buckets at the rim if the threes won't fall. Cam and Marsh for two.
 
I just realized we're opposite NFL and the Sony Open tonight.

It literally could be just us "weirdos" on here watching tonight's game. Oh, and a handful from the BC board.

I couldn’t tell you who is in the NFL playoffs or what sport the Sony Open is so I’m all tuned in here.
 
And now there is a power outage at the coliseum so definitely not finishing.

Already very little chance that our game actually begins on ESPN2.

We may actually get to the Wake game on time and not be forced to watch the end of the OK St/Baylor slopfest due to technical difficulties
 
Oregon’s court might make me physically ill.
