JUMPER AND IT IS BURNS WITH THE
REBOUND. D.J. HORNE FOR THREE.
CURIOUS TO SEE N.C. STATE, AFTER PLAYING FIVE GAMES IN FIVE DAYS
AT THE A.C.C. TOURNAMENT, WHAT THEY HAVE LEFT FOR THIS ONE AS
JOE TOUSSAINT CONNECTS. STEVE: HE'S BECOME REALLY GOOD
AT THAT MID RANGE. WELL, THEY'RE NOT BRINGING
DOUBLE AND YOU CAN'T LEAVE HORNE ALONE, THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
ANDREW: BURNS, GOOD DEFENSE DOWN LOW.
ISAACS. ANDREW: BURNS, GOOD DEFENSE DOWN
LOW. ISAACS.
YES. POPEYE ZACH, TIED FOR FIFTH IN
THE BIG 12, SCORING CLOSE TO 16 SHOT IN THE A.C.C. SEMIFINALS
AGAINST VIRGINIA TO FORCE OVERTIME.
AS BURNS'S TURNAROUND NO GOOD. DIARRA CLEANS IT UP AND THE
FOUL. MO MUHAMMAD DIARRA WILL HAVE A
CHANCE AT A THREE-POINT PLAY. STEVE: LAST WEEK D.J. BURNS MADE
ALL OF THOSE SHOTS. I NEVER SAW HIM MISS.
HE'S ALREADY MISSED THREE INSIDE THE LANE BUT DIARRA HAD 60
REBOUNDS IN THE A.C.C. TOURNAMENT.
THAT WAS A RECORD FOR THE A.C.C. ON THE BENCH TONIGHT.
EVAN, WHAT'S THE LATEST? EVAN: HE IS AVAILABLE.
HE'S DEALING WITH THAT TOE INJURY.
IN THIS GAME AGAINST BURNS HE WOULD BE SO VALUABLE TO ADD SIZE
INSIDE BUT HE'S BEEN FIGHTING ANDREW: TOUSSAINT FOR THREE AND
THERE IS CHANCE MCMILLIAN FLYING IN FOR THE OFFENSIVE BOARD.
STEVE: HE'S A GREAT SIXTH MAN WHO IS A TERRIFIC SHOOTER.
ANDREW: THIS TIME TOUSSAINT MCCASLAND IS GOING TO SEE WHAT
THE BIG GUY HAS EARLY. MIDDLEBROOKS FOR TWO OFF THE
FIELD FROM D.J. HORNE. STEVE: ONE THING TO WATCH WITH
TEXAS TECH IS THEM GETTING TO THE FREE-THROW LINE BECAUSE
THEY'RE ONE OF THE BEST FREE-THROW SHOOTING TEAMS IN THE
COUNTRY. ANDREW: 77% ON THE YEAR AS HORNE
KNOCKS DOWN A THREE. FOURTH IN THE A.C.C., SHOOTING
41% FROM DEEP. 7.5 PER NIGHT.
HERE'S HORNE, ANOTHER THREE AND IT'S GOOD AGAIN.
D.J. HORNE. HIS 95TH THREE OF THE YEAR.
STEVE: THIS GUY CAN LIGHT IT UP. WILLIAMS.
WASHINGTON, HE'S BACK! STEVE: GREAT PASS.
ANDREW: AND THE FEED FROM WAS MEMPHIS-FLORIDA ATLANTIC,
WHICH WAS A PHENOMENAL GAME SO WE'LL SEE IF N.C. STATE AND
TEXAS TECH CAN REPEAT. MIDDLEBROOKS TURNAROUND, YES.
STEVE: TELL YOU WHAT, HE CAN DO THAT'S WHY D.J. BURNS ONLY PLAYS
23 MINUTES. ANDREW: KEVIN KEATTS WILL
PROBABLY ONLY GO EIGHT DEEP TONIGHT AS MCMILLIAN SCORES.
DENNIS PARKER HASN'T PLAYED SINCE MARCH 4 DUE TO AN ILLNESS
AND KEATTS TOLD US YESTERDAY AIR.
O'COO'-- O'CONNELL NEARLY HAD IT POKED AWAY FROM BEHIND.
[WHISTLE] MIDDLEBROOKS.
COUNT IT AND ONE! BENNY BALLGAME HAS COME TO PLAY.
BEN MIDDLEBROOKS, ALREADY WITH SIX POINTS AND A CHANCE TO ADD
TO HIS TOTAL. TO HIS TOTAL.
STEVE: THE WOLFPACK COMING ON PITTSBURGH, CREIGHTON ADV --
ADVANCING TO THE SECOND ROUND. D.J. BURNS BACK ON THE FLOOR AS
WILLIAMS HITS THE THREE. STEVE: DARRION WILLIAMS,
TRANSFER FROM NEVADA. GRANT MCCASLAND TOLD US THAT
HE'S THE HEART AND SOUL OF THIS HIS CAREER HIGH IS 14.
TOUSSAINT, GOOD BALANCE AND HITS THE JUMPER.
STEVE: LIKE I SAID, THAT MID WE APPROACH NINE MINUTES TO PLAY
IN THE FIRST HALF. BURNS STILL LOOKING FOR HIS
FIRST FIELD GOAL. HE'S GOT IT.
STEVE: NO DOUBLE AND THE WAY HE BOUNDS.
STEVE: YOU SEE D.J. BURNS HERE WHEELING ON THE BLOCK.
I MEAN, THAT -- IS A FOUL. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
THAT PHYSICALITY IN THE LOW HE SAID AS A KID I WATCHED A LOT
OF HAKEM OLAJUWON VIDEOS, HE SAID I ENDED UP WITH A ZACH
RANDOLPH BUILD. [LAUGHTER]
AS HORNE SCORES. AS D.J. BURNS IS OUT THERE.
MCMILLIAN, OUT TO YOU ZACH WITH 10 TO SHOOT.
SLINGS ONE IN THE CORNER TO WILLIAMS AND WILLIAMS REJECTED.
AND THEN A TIE-UP WAS CALLED. THE POSSESSION ARROW FAVORS
TEXAS TECH. A TIME-OUT WITH 7:51 TO GO.
N.C. STATE WITH A THREE-POINT THE BALL INSIDE.
BURNS AND MIDDLEBROOKS HAVE 11 POINTS BETWEEN THEM.
MCMILLIAN CATCHES IT, PUTS IT UP AND HITS!
STEVE: HE'S A LETHAL GUY. DEFENSE.
BUT IT WON'T GO. BOTH TEAMS SHOOTING BELOW 40%
HERE IN THE FIRST HALF ASTOU SAN HIT.
-- AS TOUSSAINT HITS. HE'S BEEN THEIR OFFENSE.
HE'S GOT 11 OF THEIR 24. BURNS WITH WASHINGTON ON HIM.
OH, WHAT A SPIN MOVE BY BURNS! STEVE: THIS GUY --
ANDREW: HOW DOES HE DO THAT? STEVE: HE'S GOT GREAT FEET, THIS
GUY. AND HE'S A GOOD BALL HANDLER
TOO. ANDREW: TOUSSAINT WITH A TOUGH
LAY-IN. LAY-IN.
SIX LEAD CHANGES SO FAR IN THE FIRST HALF.
STEVE: THEY'RE STARTING TO FEEL IT NOW.
ANDREW: GOING TO WORK AGAIN. DIARRA REJECTED BY WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON KNOCKED IT OUT OF AND JOE TOUSSAINT, NOBODY STEPS
IN TO HELP. ANDREW: FOUR TO SHOOT.
BURNS HAS TO GO UP WITH IT. HE DOES AND HE GETS THE BOUNCE.
STEVE: BACKING DOWN. HIS DAD IS FEELING IT TOO.
ANDREW: HIS DAD A PROBATION OFFICER.
HIS MOM A MIDDLE SCHOOL PRINCIPAL.
HE STARTED 0-4. SINCE THEN HE'S MADE HIS LAST
THREE IN A ROW. STEVE: GREAT PASS.
ANDREW: TOUSSAINT CONNECTING WITH JENNINGS, WHO'S PLAYING
WITH TWO FOULS. STEVE: YES, WE HAVE.
ANDREW: ISAACS ON THE GIVE AND GO AND HE FINISHES.
STEVE THAT WAS GREAT MOVEMENT GO UP BY THREE.
MORSELL. TURNAROUND JUMPER.
DIARRA CLEANS IT UP. STEVE: HE HAS BEEN UNBELIEVABLE
ON THE GLASS FOR THE LAST WEEK. HE HAS BEEN FASTING FOR RAMADAN
SO HE DOESN'T HAVE WATER FROM SUNRISE TO SUNSET, SO THE LATE
TIP TIME IS ACTUALLY A HUGE WITH 90 SECONDS TO GO.
POP ISAACS TURNS IT OVER. STEVE: NORMALLY THEY MAKE 8 1/2
THREES A GAME. ANDREW: MORSELL WITH A TRIPLE!
JUST A 26% THREE-POINT SHOOTER. TIME-OUT HERE IN THE FIRST HALF.
7-0 RUN. INSIDE, COUNT IT AND ONE!
LARGEST LEAD OF THE NIGHT FOR STEVE: HOW ABOUT THIS KID?
PICK AND ROLL AND THEY JUST LEAVE HIM.
JENNINGS HUNG AROUND FOR TOO SHOT BLOCK.
ISAACS LEFT ALONE. MISSES THE THREE.
TOUSSAINT, THE REBOUND. THREE SECONDS LEFT.
HERE IS WILLIAMS AT THE BUZZER! A BIG SHOT FOR TEXAS TECH.
THEIR FIRST POINTS IN STEVE: AND I GIVE TOUSSAINT A
LOT OF CREDIT THAT INSTEAD OF JUST FIRING IT UP WITH THE CLOCK
WINDING DOWN. HE HAD THE PRESENCE OF TIME TO
GET IT TO DARRION WILLIAMS SO HE POSSESSIONS AND HE SAID WE HAVE
TO STOPT TRYING TO HIT HOME COULD MAKE THAT SHOT.
ANDREW: SEE IF THAT PROVIDES RUNS, EARLY THREES.
AND MAYBE STOP THAT GUY. ANDREW: A TRIPLE THERE FOR D.J.
HORNE. STEVE: HE'S NOT THAT BIG BUT YOU
HAVE TO GET TO HIM QUICK. ANDREW: ISAACS TRYING TO MATCH
THAT. HE DOES.
POP ISAACS, WHO WAS JUST 2-8 IN THE FIRST HALF.
AND A QUICK START TO THE SECOND HALF.
BURNS AND JENNINGS GOING AT IT HERE.
BURNS WITH THE SPIN OFF GLASS FOR TWO.
STEVE: HE'S SO GOOD WITH BOTH THAT'S WHY WHEN YOU TELL YOUR
GUYS, THE MORE SCREENS YOU SET, THE MORE SHOTS YOU GET AND
THAT'S WHAT HE DID THERE. ANDREW: WILLIAMS, JUMPER.
THAT'S A TWO AND IT'S GOOD. SO NEITHER TEAM SHOOT THE W --
BALL PARTICULARLY WELL IN THE HE'S GOT 15 POINTS.
DIARRA, A THREE. IT'S GOOD!
STEVE: THAT WAS A GOOD THREE-POINT SHOT BY DIARRA.
THE ONE HE TOOK IN THE FIRST WILLIAMS WAS THE MOUNTAIN WEST
FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR LAST SEASON AT NEVADA.
WASHINGTON INSIDE. THE GLASS IS EVEN.
EACH TEAM WITH 20 REBOUNDS. ISAACS REJECTED BY MIDDLEBROOKS!
STEVE: MIDDLEBROOKS HAS DONE A GREAT JOB HELPING OUT IN HAD THE
LANE ON THESE PICK AND ROLLS. ANDREW: MCMILLIAN WITH THE SHOT
CLOCK AT FIVE. STEPBACK JUMPER IS GOOD.
CHANCE MCMILLIAN. ISAACS.
WITH 10 ON THE SHOT CLOCK. MIDDLEBROOKS ON WING.
GOES RIGHT BACK WASHINGTON! WOW.
STEVE: I WASN'T EXPECTING THAT. ANDREW: AND A NEW CAREER HIGH
FOR BEN MIDDLEBROOKS. PROBLEMS FOR TEXAS TECH TONIGHT
IS NOT REALLY GETTING ANYTHING INSIDE AT ALL.
ANDREW: KNOCKED AWAY BUT RIGHT TO JENNINGS.
STEVE: IT WASN'T A PASS. IN THIS MONTH.
O'CONNELL HAS BEEN QUIET TONIGHT.
HE HAS YET TO SCORE FOR N.C. STATE.
DIARRA OFF THE FIELD FROM HORNE. ANDREW: FOURTH ASSIST FOR D.J.
HORNE. MCMILLIAN FAKES THE THREE, DIB
EVER -- DRIBBLES IN AND KNOCKS DOWN THE JUMPER.
STEVE: HE'S PRETTY GOOD AND CONTROL, NOT LOSING THAT LEAD.
ANDREW: RUNNER, YES, AND THE FOUL FOR D.J.!
13 POINTS FOR THE RALEIGH STEVE: THERE'S A BIT OF A
MISCOMMUNICATION WITH MCMILLIAN THERE.
JENNINGS TRIES TO HELP IN THE TO MAKE A DEEP RUN IN MARCH.
ISAACS FOR THREE. HE HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET
GOING. HE'S 3-11.
AND DIARRA WITH A JAM! TIME-OUT, TEXAS TECH.
LARGEST LEAD OF THE NIGHT FOR STEVE: RUNNING THE FLOOR HARD,
DIARRA WITH THE FINISH. THE PACK ON A RUN, UP EIGHT. PITTSBURGH.
STEVE: N.C. STATE IS DOING A GREAT JOB, JUST ONE LIVE BALL
TURNOVER IN THIS GAME. ANDREW: AND A STEAL BY D.J.
HORNE. MORSELL AHEAD OF THE PACK.
HE PLAYS IT IN. A 7-0 RUN FOR THE WOLFPACK.
STEVE: THAT WAS A BAD RAIDERS.
STEVE: THIS WAS JUST A VERY CARELESS PASS.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE TOUSSAINT WAS THROWING THAT.
AND MORSELL WITH THE FINISH. MIDDLEBROOKS JUMPS OUT ON THAT
DRIBBLE HANDOFF. ANDREW: WASHINGTON WITH FIVE.
WASHINGTON FORCES ONE UP AND IT GOES -- IT DOESN'T GO OUT OF
BOUNDS BUT A SHOT CLOCK VIOLATION.
AND THE N.C. STATE FANS APPLAUD STEVE: VERY ACTIVE.
HE'S PLAYED A HECK OF A GAME. ANDREW: BURNS AND WASHINGTON.
BURNS WANTS IT. BURNS MUSCLES HIS WAY AND HITS!
THE PLACE ERUPTS. STEVE: THAT LEFT-HANDED HATCH
HOOK. FINESSE, THE FINISH.
SUCH A FAN FAVORITE. N.C. STATE AND REALLY THE LACK
OF INSIDE PLAY BY TEXAS TECH. ANDREW: HORNE AND MIDDLEBROOKS
HAVE COMBINED FOR 33 POINTS, DOMINATING.
STEVE: AND THROW DIARRA IN THERE TOO.
ANDREW: ISAACS TO WASHINGTON. NICE FEED FROM POP.
10-POINT GAME. N.C. STATE'S HALF COURT DEFENSE
HAS BEEN VERY GOOD. ANDREW: D.J. BURNS RIGHT BACK ON
THE FLOOR. GETS IT HERE, GOES TO WORK.
YES. HIS DAD LOVING IT.
14 FOR BURNS. 3:30 WITHOUT A FIELD GOAL FOR
THE RED RAIDERS. WALTON, A THREE.
STEVE: HE'S ONE OF THEIR BEST EARLIER TODAY WE SAW NEVADA BLOW
A HUGE LEAD AGAINST DAYTON. DIARRA TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT
DOES NOT HAPPEN HERE IN PITTSBURGH.
STEVE: GREAT MOVE DOWN LOW. A DOUBLE-DOUBLE.
HORNE OUT TO O'CONNELL. RIGHT BACK INSIDE TO
MIDDLEBROOKS. SHOT CLOCK AT FIVE.
MIDDLEBROOKS! STEVE: THIS GUY IS PRETTY GOOD. 3:52 TO GO AND A 13-POINT GAME.
SOME PRESSURE HERE FROM TEXAS TECH.
STEVE: GOOD JOB BY TAYLOR COMING TO MEET THAT PASS.
ANDREW: BOUNCES IT TO BURNS FOR TWO MORE.
STEVE: ATTACK THE PRESSURE, THAT'S HOW YOU BEAT PRESSURE.
JUST LIKE THAT. THEY PLAYED VERY HARD THE WHOLE
GAME. ANDREW: WILLIAMS KNOCKS IT DOWN
AND GRANT MCCASLAND WILL USE HIS FINAL TIME-OUT WITH 1:53 TO GO.
76-61 IS OUR SCORE. WITH IT.
HE DOES. WALTON'S THREE IS GOOD.
