Dexter Strickland talks smack about the Pack

Dexter Strickland's knee is healthy -- and so is his mouth. First, we'll go with the bulletin-board material provided to Mark Gottfried's N.C. State squad -- which has been picked as the preseason favorite to win the league. "They talk those guys up every single year and we beat them every single year," Strickland said. "They are the least of our worries. Beat us one year and then they can talk smack. Until then, you can't put them in the mix."
