NC State is Projected as a 10-Seed in the NCAA Tourney After VT Win
After defeating Virginia Tech 97-77 last night in the ACC Tournament, NC State is projected as a 10-Seed in the NCAA Tournament over at BracketMatrix.com.
The Wolfpack is listed as high as a 9-Seed, and as low as ‘out of the field’ from two of the Bracketologist’s that have updated their projections today.
After the win over the Hokies last night, I would imagine the Wolfpack officially punched their ticket to the Big Dance, but a win tonight should seal the deal.

We stomp VT and the Tigers absolutely maul us. Wow. Not sure what happened. Did we spend all our point on VT? All kidding aside, that game was embarrassing. While I’m good with the season we had, I do not see us going much further than one win into the NCAA Tournament. Just don’t see it. We don’t have the “it” factor. Still, a highly entertaining team to watch and I’ve enjoyed watching them play.
Clemson is just a bad matchup for us. We are a bad matchup for VT. KK needs to figure out a solution to that but it doesn’t mean we don’t have a good team. There aren’t many teams that can replicate what Clemson does.
These tough matchups, Clemson and UVA, would be much easier if we had Dusan, who could get physical in the paint but also get out on sharp shooting centers.
I don’t think we’re a bad team. It just feels as if we lack the killer instinct or ability to dig ourselves out of difficult situations. Granted, we’re 23-10 so we’re good. I just don’t think we have the “it”.
Turnovers kill any chance. Hall reminds me of Gugliotta.
Clemson, as much as I hate them right now, deserves to be in the NCAAT.
UNC goes down, so there’s that. UVA’s defense was scary good.
Other teams that could push us down have generally been losing, so now I think we are safe with a 10 seed at worst, and almost no chance of having to do the play in game.
Ok. We stomped VaTech and surely we are in. But, after all the wonderful improvements, wildly entertaining basketball, and way exceeding my preseason expectations…….Clemson beat us TWICE. I want revenge. In my heart I know, these State guys have a lot of rightly justified pride. Therefore, Beat f*****g Clemson! Don’t do it for me. Don’t do it for the fans. Do it for yourselves! Oh sorry guys. Sometimes the pressure just gets to me and The Reverend starts to preach. Anybody, Give me an AMEN!
Amen Rev!
I think we are solidly in, but there is still some risk of dropping to 11 seed and the dreaded play in game. Providence and Pitt both lost so the helps a bit.
