NC State over Phi Slamma Jamma. A terrible shot or the greatest assist in NCAA history.

Ohhh, tough. I'll take the Jets over Baltimore in III, with Tbe Miracle intertradable. That upstart AFL with suave Namath having sex the night before day games (I think it was an Esquire interview).

You people have the best action over here at the 'cooler. I need to hang out more often

As a lifelong NC State fan, I like to think of it as a great assist.

The following quote sums it up the best concerning everyone's thought of NC State coming away with a win over the talented Houston team composed of Hakeem Olajuwon, Clyde Drexler and company:

"Trees will tap dance, elephants will drive the Indianapolis 500, and Orsen Wells will skip lunch before North Carolina State finds a way to beat Houston." �Washington Post, April 4, 1983
