I am very passionate about my wolfpack of NC State. I've grown up with them instilled in my house and grateful I had the opportunity to attend the school for my secondary education. We are know for our magical 1983 championship with the great Jimmy Valvano. The ending of the final is one of the most famous in college basketball history, with Lorenzo Charles' dunk at the buzzer off a high, arching alley-oop pass from 30 feet out by Dereck Whittenburg providing the final margin. In fact, the team won 7 of its last 9 games after trailing with a minute left in the game. Both Charles' dunk and Valvano's running around the court in celebration immediately after the game have been staples of NCAA tournament coverage ever since. North Carolina State's victory has often been considered the greatest upset in college basketball history and one of the best in sports history. I've been to just about every home game since middle school. I bleed Red and White.
