N.C. State is the only ACC team with five players who average at least 10 points a game.
The Wolfpack's balance helped them in Sunday's 79-74 win over Maryland, which was essentially a one-man show in Terrell Stoglin (25 points).
C.J. Leslie led State with 20 points against the Terps, Scott Wood added 19, Lorenzo Brown had 11 and Richard Howell finished with 10.
A brilliant UCLA professor, and some counterparts at USC, have signed on to explain some of the weightier ideas foisted upon us by ABC blockbluster Lost.
The show's creators corraled professors from both Pac-10 schools to teach online courses — exams and everything! — on tje philosophy, physics and hieroglyphics behind the show. Check out the particulars in this L.A. Times story.
I was gonna sign up but you have to own Blu-Ray discs of Season 5 and students will get hints about HOW IT WILL ALL END. More at Lost University.
And why would anyone want to know before it does end? I like being strung out on Lost. It's a socially acceptable addiction. Now WAITING EIGHT MONTHS to know for sure that Juliet died — sniff, sniff ... Tito, get me a tissue — during the S5 finale in May, isn't as cool.
Lost premieres Feb. 2. Recap at 8 p.m. Two-hour episode at 9.
(P.S. The snap of Sayid has nothing to do with anything except I miss watching him work it out against guys 5X his size. And he's carrying a gun and bleeding from the head.)
Don't like today's decision by trustees at UNC Chapel Hill to increase tuition and fees?
Try going to UCLA.
At Carolina, trustees approved a plan today that would raise tuition and fees for in-state students by 5.2 percent.
At UCLA, all you-know-what is breaking loose as that campus ponders a 32 percent increase to its sticker price.
Yes, 32 percent.

DETROIT — Whether it's North Carolina or Michigan State on the winners platform later tonight in Ford Field, there will be movement on the all-time NCAA titles ladder.
Entering the game, the Tar Heels need one more crown to tie Indiana at five for third place on the all-time list. Michigan State, with titles in 1979 and 2000, is one of eight schools (including N.C.
State) with two trophies. A win by the Spartans would move them into a three-way tie with Duke and Kansas with three titles each.
No one reading this information may be alive when a school wins enough championships to match UCLA’s 11.
Four seniors stepped up to the plate for East Carolina's baseball team on Saturday. Literally.
Seniors Brandon Henderson, Drew Schieber, Ryan Wood and Stephen Batts combined for all of the Pirates' hits and RBIs as East Carolina defeated UCLA 7-5 at Clark-LeClair Stadium in the final game of a three-game series -- avoiding a series sweep at the hands of the Bruins.
If you were heading to Greenville and Clark-LeClair Stadium for Friday's 5 p.m. game, you'll want to read on.
The Pirates, anticipating bad weather this weekend, have turned Friday into a doubleheader, with the first game starting at noon, and the second game starting 45 minutes after the first game ends.
In California, a major state university grappling with budget cuts has killed a requirement that all students take a seminar-style course with limited enrollment and — gasp! — a lot of interaction with the professor!
UCLA's faculty made this decision recently in large part because, without enough folks on staff to teach, students weren't able to get the course in a timely manner and some were having trouble graduating on time as a result, according to the Los Angeles Times.
In North Carolina, universities are having budget issues as well.
