Biggest game in the history of Western Civilization.

[greenminer]

Cobe Williams is out for the tourney because of a broken finger.  Starting guard and CUSA All-Defensive team.

[UNTLifer]

JJ has to walk back to Houston if we lose.

So can we attend this tourney?  How many tickets were the schools allotted?  Anyone have a few spare tickets?

And playing all but 1 minute a game. We need to get these guys some rest.

 

should have rested our first game more I think.

We have to have a quality game plan to limit Crawford this go around with La Tech. He’s a huge problem. Super talented and a matchup nightmare.

[Matt from A700]

Anybody have tickets and can't go? I just request 1!

[emmitt01]

I'll say it again, if we lose then JJ should be fired.

This game might be packed. Four of the top five traveling fans are playing today.

Fans get to play ??

Oh there will be some back and forth between these fans!

I just called the ticket office and they are selling tickets to donors and season ticket holders.

If anyone who is a donor or season ticket holder wouldn't mind using their clout to buy a ticket for me, please let me know. I really would like to go to this game.

Sadly I believe La Tech are slight favorites. We don’t have a bench and our one player off the bench who produces us out. Lewis has been none existent the last few weeks, Zach is playing beat up, and we are now on day three of play with our main guys getting little to no rest.

 

La Tech is a little beat up and their best defender is out, but if we don’t get that freshman in foul trouble early on we could be in trouble (unless we just rain threes). 

[DeepGreen]

The 3’s will fall for the good guys.

LA Tech 8 -------- NT 6

Not a bad start.  I think we need to try and slash to the basket as much as possible.  I don't trust weary legs making jump shots all day.

 

 

[Tom McKrackin]

I am afraid we will lose.  They are good.  Their post is big.

[MattDamon23]

It's gonna be a dogfight (no pun intended)

Our defense is suffocating the Bulldogs right now.

I'll be more trigger-happy with Twitter posts for those of us that like to have video, but don't have CBSN
