Carolina about to lose its "undefeated-in-the-ACC" status, down by thirteen at Ga Tech with under 4 minutes remaining. They seem to be conceding the inevitable.
Make that 16! GTHC!!

I've been holding off posting on this subject to avoid the jinx, but look at how poorly UNC has shot and how many TO's they have!
Ahhh, league play. Let's not fret too much about our guys, eh!
Thank you GT ...and I'm not betting on any conference games this year!
I hate to admit it, but I've been quietly trolling IC (no comments just strictly observing), and I haven't laughed so much in 2 hours in a long time. I know how we get when we lose, but those fans on IC are in total revolt mode. It's only 1 loss, but you would think Roy Williams haden't won 2 NC's the past 5 years. I am still laughing!
will this be the year Clemson wins in CH?
Well, Carolina is no Kennesaw State.
How beautiful this is for me. I'm pouring beer on my head. I've been going at it with my UNC friends - who had the audacity to doubt my fandom based on my choice of college. So today I got to tell them to double stick it.

This was a royal arse-whipping!
UNC's line: 28% FG, 17% from 3, OUTREBOUNDED by 3, 18 TO's, LOSE BY 20!
Who would have guessed that with all UNC's momentum lately?
Can you imagine that GT got to pull some of their starters at the end? Complete blowout in the second half. Henson got a nasty stinger on his left elbow with about 2 minutes remaining.
UNC just looked terrible. Total beatdown in the second half.
At least UNC's All American was 100% from the FT line. 3-13 isn't so hot though.
Shumpert and Rice stepped up and the holes went scoreless for the final 9 min from the field. Almost as many in baby blue at the game as Tech supporters who have apparently expressed their displeasure with Hewitt by not showing up for the game. I felt sorry for teh Tech players. Its Clemson next in CH. Could the streak be broken?
First time I've seen Carolina this season. Was that an outlier, or do they actually suck that badly?
So I'm waiting for the official box score to put up the efficiency stats (that'll be tomorrow morning), but this game should make them more legitimate:
CLEMSON has been the most efficient team in the ACC thus far. (errr Clemson and VTech actually are basically tied, but VTech is just up there due to slaughtering Wake, so they don't count).
This might seem ridiculous, but it's because Clemson had an effective Field Goal % of 83% against GEORGIA TECH.
Tonight Carolina had an Effective Field Goal% of 29.8%. Yep.
GT is a bad team. They're not historically bad (Wake). But this game just shows, that GT is at this point basically just like a normal 12th place ACC team. Unfortunately for the ACC...there's a team worse than GT.
<devildeac> anyone playing drinking games by now?

Carolina Delenda Est
