The joke, of course, because a joke is the only way to start here, so difficult is it to get one’s hands wrapped around this cockamamie Cards-survived-on-the-road football victory. If, in fact, any type of objective, even faintly analytical comprehension of what went down Saturday night in Winston-Salem is possible at all.
So, the question is, will Danny Manning’s Demon Deacon hoopsters be able to equal the school’s pigskin tally of 59 when they visit the Yum! on February 5? (Insert chuckle track here.)
So, what exactly was the turning point -- “a time at which a decisive change in a situation occurs, especially one with beneficial results” -- in this whoopsie doo 62-59 Cardinal nailbiter of an ACC W against a “Top 25” foe?
