No Asterisks. No Fine Print. Just a Rivalry Win. NC State beat UNC. Period. Now the narrative is shifting — "They were hurt." "They didn't have their best two players." "It doesn't count the same." In this episode of Packin' With Gary, we're talking about why that's nonsense. Rivalry games don't come with disclaimers. Injuries are part of the game. Depth matters. Preparation matters. Showing up and executing matters. And the Wolfpack did exactly that. We'll break down: Why this win absolutely counts The double standard in rivalry conversations What this says about NC State moving forward And why Pack fans shouldn't apologize for anything If the roles were reversed, would Carolina be downplaying it? You already know the answer. Let's talk Wolfpack Hoops. 🐺🏀

Before everyone points at one late call, let's talk about what really happened. This game wasn't decided by the refs — it was decided on the sideline. In this episode of Packin' With Gary, we break down the coaching decisions that shifted momentum, the rotations that didn't make sense, the late-game execution, and the adjustments (or lack of them) that cost the Wolfpack a winnable game against Miami. This isn't about one possession. It's about preparation. It's about in-game management. It's about situational basketball. If you're ready for honest Wolfpack analysis — not excuses — you're in the right place. 🐺 Let's talk Wolfpack hoops.
