NC State’s back. You know, the real one. The one without any pride or effort? Yeah, that one. A pathetically confused first 10 minutes on Sunday afternoon led a three-averse Louisville team to shoot and make a bunch of them, which buried the Wolfpack early. The Cardinals had 28 points in the first 10 minutes and cruised to an 85-60 win over State.
Louisville is not a team that normally shoots a lot of three-pointers, and for some damned reason NC State’s dunce crew of a coaching staff thought a zone look—rather than applying pressure to Louisville’s thin guard corps—was a good idea.
