59th Annual ACC Tournament, March 8-11, Philips Arena, Atlanta GA

3/5/2012 11:38:24 AM

Will ESPN3/TheACC.com be streaming these at all? I know I've had issues with ESPNU games in the past at least.

3/5/2012 11:40:43 AM

GO PACK!

3/5/2012 11:42:15 AM

Im heading down early thursday to catch the first game -- haven't gotten any tickets yet. i imagine it won't be difficult grabbing some in the parking lots, or at the Phillips box office?

3/5/2012 11:43:17 AM

Looks like my watch ESPN app will be getting some heavy usage thursday and friday

3/5/2012 11:46:15 AM

hey guys, where can I watch this?

3/5/2012 11:50:37 AM

Is Game 9 played by the winners of Game 5 and 6?

If so, if we don't shut the bed against BC, I'd like another shot at UNC just for fun.

3/5/2012 11:51:48 AM

My office does not allow streaming, so I will miss both Thursday and Friday games.

Stupid ridiculous productivity rules.

3/5/2012 11:52:04 AM

It's also looking like I won't be able to watch the games either (can't stream at work)... although I may try to come in early Friday, use a couple vacation hours, and take a late long lunch (that is, if we make it to Friday, which I'm (foolishly?) optimistic about.

3/5/2012 12:02:07 PM

I dont think bc game will be a concern, but friday will be the most important game of the entire season in terms of both getting a signature win and facilitating a deeper tourney run.

3/5/2012 12:06:39 PM

I've got a damn mediation both days. So I won't even be able to refresh a game tracker or TWW for updates.

[Edited on March 5, 2012 at 12:17 PM. Reason : I miss the days of elementary and middle school, where we would break from class to watch the games.]

3/5/2012 12:12:41 PM

I cannot believe the ACC, allowing Georgia Tech such an advantage!

Eh, no one in Georgia really cares about the ACC.

Probably both. ESPN doesn't usually stream ESPNU games but they do occasionally, and I'd be willing to bet they will be streaming all ESPNU tournament games.

I feel like that "Glorified Gottfried Gang" post by TreeTwista10 belongs in this thread

3/5/2012 1:57:06 PM

A win against BC will be Gottfried's 300th!

3/5/2012 2:21:03 PM

plz2victor into the weekend!

3/5/2012 2:22:03 PM

U knoow that we are gonna beet uva and then they will fall out of the top 50, right?

3/5/2012 2:51:19 PM

why don't they just set out game for 2:30 officially, its not like its gonna start at 2

3/5/2012 2:55:37 PM

i'm currently working on streaming sites for these games, so be on the lookout.

3/5/2012 3:05:28 PM

Better log in some hours early this week, because I should useless come Thursday and Friday. Well...not useless Friday if we lose our first game.

3/5/2012 3:14:10 PM

Virginia's Senior Center Sene suspended for remainder of the season, although he probably wouldn't have played against us anyways due to an ankle injury.

I've read this 5 times and i still don't know what you are trying to say.

3/5/2012 4:34:48 PM

^really?

i'm taking off early Thursday to go watch at a bar. i don't know what excuse i'll use for leaving at the same time Friday if we win.

3/5/2012 4:38:43 PM

i'd rather skip the BC game (or just stream it on my 2nd monitor), and get time in to watch the more important UVA game. I'll just assume we'll just blow out BC.

3/5/2012 4:42:07 PM

you know what happens when you assume, right?






you get a #2 seed in the NIT

3/5/2012 4:42:46 PM

wonder if beating Boston College will actually lower our RPI

3/5/2012 4:42:57 PM

well it won't hurt it as bad as losing to them!

3/5/2012 4:44:30 PM

eh, never mind

[Edited on March 5, 2012 at 5:06 PM. Reason : wrong rpi formula]

3/5/2012 5:02:46 PM

^^^^^

i was reading useless as useless and not use less. I'm sorry for reading the words you typed.

3/5/2012 5:09:34 PM

i didn't type it, and if you still can't figure out what he's saying, no one can help you

3/5/2012 5:10:46 PM

^^ I typed it fucker...and I left out the word "be". Common fucking sense.

3/5/2012 5:12:35 PM

dang, the f-word twice in two sentences. must be serious.

3/5/2012 5:14:32 PM

^^haha

3/5/2012 5:15:30 PM

Genghis john. Be careful. The one two years ago I was told its now illegal to sell single game tickets to other fans outside the stadium. Of course there were people still buying and selling (we bought some) but its not in front of people out in the open as much.

I'm not even talking about scalping laws, you can't even sell them at face value technically

3/5/2012 5:19:51 PM

is it illegal to purchase too? or only sell. sometimes when they crack down like that everyone is guilty.

3/5/2012 5:22:11 PM

is it illegal to give them away? ie, sell somebody a bottle of pepsi or a paperclip for $50 and give them a free ticket

3/5/2012 5:33:55 PM

^^^you sure that wasn't just stupid nc laws?

[Edited on March 5, 2012 at 5:37 PM. Reason : ]

3/5/2012 5:36:21 PM

I have no idea if it was illegal only bc it was in greensboro. I think it was illegal to buy and sell but not positive

It was definitely dumb as Fuck tho. I believe it was no selling or buying tickets at any price on the property.

3/5/2012 5:43:57 PM

3/5/2012 5:57:44 PM

So... we dunked a lot?

3/5/2012 6:04:06 PM

well I didn't want to call it exclusively a dunk video...

3/5/2012 6:07:58 PM

video would've been pretty good if all the same plays weren't grouped together. A bunch of dunks, then a bunch of free throws, 3's, etc.

Mixing it up would make it more dynamic. (good effort though)

3/5/2012 6:58:30 PM

^^^and wood made a lot of free-throws and 3s. and brown banked a 80-foot buzzer-beater against unc (at half, to close the gap to 23-37)!

awesome show, great job! on the video.
(although i didn't care for the music, is that from the same guys who brought us "boom!"?)


[Edited on March 5, 2012 at 7:12 PM. Reason : ]

3/5/2012 7:03:24 PM

Great video! I liked that things were grouped together. A random free throw wouldn't have made much sense to include unless they were representative of the streak

Can I spread your video around?

[Edited on March 5, 2012 at 7:21 PM. Reason : ]

3/5/2012 7:13:14 PM

It's on YouTube. Of course you can

3/5/2012 7:32:28 PM

^^ please do.

only negative is the song choice seems to have prevented the video from being available on phones. stupid. stupid. stupid.

I knew the song choice wouldn't be for everybody but they used it pregame last year before games so I had it in mind, and I needed something upbeat to synchronize some of the shots.

but yeah. post it on Facebook, email it, whatever. just want people to see it!

3/5/2012 7:56:20 PM

I forgot about that CJL dunk vs Wake. Shit was just stupid nasty.

3/5/2012 8:37:56 PM

good video...i enjoyed the Bzdelik facepalm early on

3/5/2012 11:11:10 PM

The music was "Diamond Eyes" by Shinedown. A lot better than boom by P.O.D.
