I am going to start an online petition to fire Brey and replace him with Muffet. Btw, what kind of a name is Muffet? Am I the only one who is oddly turned on by it? Just say it... Muffet... that's haut, no? ... I'm going back over to cougarlife.com

No, you are not the only one.



Saying anything else would be too much information.

The last time ND played NCS had 6-5 Markiesha Gatling and still lost by 24. Without her (knee injury) it was no contest.

Gatling was averaging 18 points and seven rebounds while shooting a national-best 67.6 percent. She had started all 31 games this season, so it was the first time N.C. State had to go without her.

With Gatling leading the way, the Wolfpack had ranked near the top of the league by shooting almost 46 percent. Without her Saturday, N.C. State shot 31 percent and managed just 18 points in the paint.


ND had 4 double figure players Loyd, McBride, Cable and Mabrey, with 2 if them off the bench. The bench players PT was slightly better than half the game minutes and they scored 41 of the 83 points.

ND sets a school record with its 31st consecutive win, topping last year's winning streak and establishing the second-longest success string by any Fighting Irish team (regardless of sport) since 1950 (only softball's 33-game run in 2001 has been longer).

ND is 10-0 against Top 25 teams this year, winning 9 of those by double figures and claiming the past 4(and 5 of the last 6) by at least 20 points.

ND was playing its second game in less than 48 hours, improving to 43-9 (.827) in the back half of such situations since the start of the 2008-09 season.

ND had 4 double-figure scorers for the 22nd time this season and are 97-5 (.951) in such games in the past 5 years, including wins in 67 of their last 68 games.

ND had single-digit turnovers (9) for the fourth time this season, ending up 2 short of their season best (7 vs. Clemson on Jan. 5 at Purcell Pavilion).

ND's bench scored at least 40 points for the sixth time this season.

ND had at least one reserve score in double figures in a game for the 22nd time this season.

Lindsay Allen set a Fighting Irish record for freshmen with 118 assists this season, surpassing Mary Gavin's mark of 116 assists set in 1984-85

Jewell Loyd scored in double figures for the 35th consecutive game, extending the second-longest string in school history, while senior guard/tri-captain Kayla McBride posted her 22nd consecutive double-digit scoring game, tying for fifth-longest in school history.

Loyd has 998 career points, putting her in position to be the 33rd 1,000-point scorer in program history, and the third to do so before the end of her sophomore season (Beth Morgan in 1994-95, Skylar Diggins in 2010-11) ... having played her 66th game on Saturday, Loyd also could be the third-quickest player in program history to reach 1,000 points, surpassed only by Morgan (56 games) and Shari Matvey (66 games from 1979-83)

We were a little too lax on the last offensive position of the first half.
