Well, we won. I had to go sit in the other room and listen to a good chunk of the end after we blew an eight point lead by playing like a bunch of sucky losers. There was a bad call at the end of the game - we knocked it out of bounds, but the refs called it off NC State and we kept possession. Then we scored on the in-bounds and took the lead. Without that bad call, NC State still has the momentum and would have had possession, and may very well have beat us. This is the kind of victory that it's hard to take any enjoyment in at all.
Time to get six hours of sleep before I go to work!
