Did someone say trap game??

[Glory to the Green]

FAU came to play. They played great defense tonight. I feel like their offense may have suffered due to our defense, but also due to the effort/energy they used defending us.  We could definitely see them again. Nice win on the road. GMG!

Those aren't completely current.  WKU won a few minutes ago.

 

They're on a six game win streak right now - rounding into form.  Will probably have to face them in Frisco.

I've noticed. ESPN is behind on their standings. Now updated.

This is a fan message board.   
He brings up a good point.   The guys could hyper-focus on the upcoming showdown with UAB, and fall at a good FAU team, the stereotypical "trap game".    I doubt they do this, but something to consider when bantering about the team & their schedule.

You know what's great about bringing FAU up as a "trap" game?   You have to be winning at an impressive clip in order for a loss to a top 5 C-USA team to qualify as a "trap".
 

I'm pretty sure we're all enjoying the winning!

Trap game lol

Considering they’re near a beach, and in Florida, you’d think it would be the opposite, right??

On the road for work, so only catching up on everything now…some quick observations…

 

- presumably it’s the same basketball venue, but back in the JJ era, FAU made the deliberate decision to shrink their venue capacity with the idea a more intimate arena would create a better atmosphere. I don’t hate that idea.

- I’m maybe there most critical poster of Thomas Bell, or at least his role in the team…but as I sat at dinner impatiently waiting for Gamecast to update the last two minutes, every time I saw UNT had scored I said to myself, “Bell got those buckets” and I was right

- we just won a game with a 3:16 assist to turnover ratio. Someone please explain that to me

-  we lose this game, not to mention LaTech, Western, Marshall…if we had beaten Buffalo earlier this season. That loss is why we’re here. @Andrew

It was brought up in post game.  What a unique stat.  They couldn't recall anything like that ever happening, nor can I.

[Green Lantern]

Gritty win on the road. So impressed with the team’s ability to stay dedicated to relentless defensive effort no matter what. Allowed us to play 17 minutes of horrific offense in the 1st half and still end up going into halftime tied. Remarkable. A true reflection of the head coach’s mentality being instilled to the team’s core.

For God so loved the Mean Green that they didn't even need strong play at the 1?

Does anyone know our “points allowed” average after this game ?  It was 55.5 (?).  Still best in the nation ?
