That O'Quinn guy has 9 pts 5 rebounds already.

[Slim]

I think tonight's game is the tournament championship!

[LAMUfan]

so we think otule did very good against him or he was just off?  he was a non factor when we played them

[LAMUfan]

it looks that way.  can anyone imagine NSU giving us any trouble in a rematch?  I still think TCU will win somehow

agreed...would have been better to have UVA and Miss. on the opposite side of us.  i think the fact that UVA was picked 4th in the preseason ranking for the ACC shows how bad that conference needed to bust up BEAST basketball.  if Dixon were to leave Pitt. and the allegations against Cuse were to be true/or Boehiem were to decide he's had enough it could turn out ugly for the ACC.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Norfolk State now up 11 with 12 minutes to go. Kind of a bummer.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

And TCU looks TERRIBLE.

I can't seem to find a bracket for this tournament...is Virginia still alive in the tourney?  If Norfolk wins tonight, and we win...do we play them again in the Championship?

Yes. UVA lost to Norfolk State. We play the winner of Norfolk State and TCU. Norfolk State is currently leading 50-37 with 8:30 minutes left.

If we win tonight, we had better not get cocky.     Having said that, is NSU actually pretty good and we are that good, or is that side of the bracket all tanking?

I don't know. UVA was favored to win against NSU. With that said, O'Quinn looks pretty good for them tonight. Currently has 12 rebounds...we absolutely shut him down in Milwaukee.

[dwaderoy2004]

All i know is norfolk st. better win whatever crappy conference they are in since they count double in our SOS and RPI.

[NersEllenson]

Yes. UVA lost to Norfolk State. We play the winner of Norfolk State and TCU. Norfolk State is currently leading 50-37 with 8:30 minutes left.

Thanks for clarification....and WOW, just WOW that Virginia lost to Norfolk.  Guess Tony Bennett has more work to do...

Virginia actually lost to TCU. Still a terrible loss though.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Yes, that's right. My mistake. NSU beat Drexel in the first round. TCU is making it a game...down 56-48 with 2.5 minutes to go.

Thanks J-Mayer - so that's how Google works, huh?!!  My lazy a$$ just didn't get around to Googling.  Sad, I know!

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Norfolk State it is if we win tonight. They're up 11 with 1 minute to go. Too bad.

My memory is bad...was it MSM or UNS that had 3 starters benched when we played them?

[cheebs09]

I believe that was Mount St. Mary's.

[Dawson Rental]

I believe that was Mount St. Mary's.

It was.


And their head coach Sister Ursula was also out with rickets.

[Boone]

MSM

[avid1010]
