If you guys want us to be ranked, a victory over the #4 team in the nation on the road would likely soar us into the Top 15. It will be ridiculously tough to accomplish Sunday but anything is possible.

Other than a 4-point loss at Tennessee, no one has even been close to keeping with the Lady Heels. They are coming off two shellackings of CCU & Western Kentucky before Christmas.

It would be a great accomplishment for us to keep this within 15 the entire game. You never know, if we do that UNC may get nervous down the stretch.

can we get all of you Carolina goobs to ditch your UNC graphics for a while? It looks pretty silly considering the circumstances here.

Here's to hoping the LU/Carolina fans don't show up wearing azure attire.

Tough matchup for the girls. Wish I was close by, I'd be down there in a heart beat. We've been playing well, so, at this point--anything is possible. Let's hope for the upset!

you are going to both games? how are you going to get to Northern VA in an hour and a half if the men's game starts at 5:30?
