Our beat writers view of the WL exhibition game

Gives a nice perspective.
Wow. What a difference
Thanks Matt. Hope to see you contribute here too.
We need to get Matt an Usinger sausage sampler plus a variety of Milwaukee's best local brews if he continues the work he's doing.
But this made my eyebrow raise: "He also noted on Saturday that he thinks it is great to play local teams in the preseason and wants to continue doing so down the road."
More UWM?!
Above and beyond the call of duty ... and a lot of words on an exhibition game.
It might be as difficult for Matt to maintain this pace as it will be for Wojo's boyz to do so!

I think he means exhibitions. If we are doing more exhibitions, I would like to see us play UW Whitewater. D3 national champs would give us a bit more competition. I would love to see a UWM game regular season.

Makes a good point about Duane. A whole lot of what we like about Duane's game came in garbage time against the 3rd stringers from a D3 team. Having said that, he did make a huge leap from the first half to the second half. This was a good chance for him to get his timing back.

UWM would not be a "preseason" matchup. DI teams don't play other DI teams in the preseason unless it's an SSS (super-secret-scrimmage).
Preseason = Exhibition
Preseason =/= Non-Conference
The "season" begins Friday.
Looking forward to the pre-game report for friday's game.
FYI—Matt is also having an online chat this Thursday over at JSOnline.com...be sure to get your questions in.
