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.

Yeah.

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.

I know the story.

2010, last game of the year, or last road game of the year.

We go to NC State.

We lose.

We go to Indianapolis.

We win the national championship.
