Hello and welcome to another edition of Live Blogging on 'Shish on College Basketball'.  Tonight, it is an ACC matchup between the North Carolina Tar Heels and the N.C. State Wolfpack in Raleigh, N.C.

North Carolina State is coming off an upset victory vs. Duke and is now trying to continue this momentum against another in-state rival the Tar Heels.  It is Carolina and N.C. State, next on 'Shish on College Basketball'.

:3.1: Ralston Turner fouls out of the game. Carolina leads Wolfpack 77-76.

The question coming out of this game will be why didn't Anthony Barber miss the second free throw with less 4 seconds left in the game.  That second free throw made, lead to Ralston Turner fouling out of the game.


Both teams are out of timeouts.

:1.7: Lacy makes both free throws.

Two attempts for the N.C. State free throw shooter failing to miss his second free throw in the final five seconds of this game.

:0.2: Foul on North Carolina.  Abu makes first free throw.  Misses free throw, but Cody Martin misses tip-in for N.C. State.
