If they get their threes at the Lenovo Center, we've seen how an avalanche can come when they start getting momentum.
So I'm looking for us to kind of shut that down as we have been doing to teams the past few weeks.
Look, this is the last team that we play for the first time this year.
We got UNC after that, but I think with this particular game,
It's interesting.
Every time we go there, it feels like it's just a very difficult get, even when we win.
Very rarely do we go there and beat the pants off of NC State.
So we have to be prepared for that.
We know they're going to be jacked up for it.
They kind of need this game, in a way, for not just seeding purposes in the ACC tournament, but seeding purposes in the NCAA tournament.
They need a signature win like this to couple with the one they had earlier over UNC.
I think playing physical inside is going to be a thing to watch as well because, as you mentioned, they don't have as much length inside and as much size inside, and that could be an advantage for us.
So I'm looking to see how we can get the ball into their guards, see if we can win the paint war and the rebounding battle because, as you mentioned, there are a couple of guys there who can get offensive boards and defensive boards, and I want to see us win that.
Jason, here's an interesting stat that we've had.
In 2001, we went to NC State on the last games of the season.
Go ahead.
They went to NC State and they lost.
They ended up in Indianapolis.
They won a national championship.
