Denver (3/1/09)

[CMJ]

Huge seeding implications. We win, and we're the #4 and get a really down FAU. Lose and we get ULM(I think). Now I'd take our chances versus either ULM or FAU, but the Owls have been pretty listless the whole season. AND looking ahead to a potential 2nd round game, we'd avoid UALR if we get the 4 seed. Sure, we'd be in WKU's half of the bracket, but once you get to the semifinals chances are you're not gonna be avoiding anyone anymore.

I'd like to get as far as possible without taking on one of the Big 3 and then, with our depth, take our chances once there. Maybe even hope someone gets knocked off and helps us along the way like MTSU did to USA in '07.

Anyways, so we're playing for the 4...or the 7.

I'll be at work tomorrow during the game, but will be listening in. Can't promise to provide scoring updates or commentary for those not listening in, someone else may have to.

***And this is also for the 1000th victory in program history

Point of information....our schedule shows the game tipping off at 1pm. Denver web site shows it tipping off at 1pm....I assume it is 2pm our time. Am I correct?

The email sent from UNT says 2:00PM CST. ESPN shows 1:00PM CST. I don't know who to trust... probably the email since it is the most recent.

My bad... I was thinking CST was 2 hours behind Eastern for some reason... ESPN is actually 2:00PM CST. I'll go with 2:00PM.

[e-bone ver2.awesome]

Just play a solid half guys and make your free throws.

[MarkCiz]

DU's broadcasters: McCoy "scored 29 the other night, now he's Michael Jordan!" 13 points for McCoy off the bench. UNT is killing DU with offensive rebounds.

We played some good defense too in that first half... blocks, steals, forced shots....

[Quoner]

If we don't win by18, we should just clean house...

[Fitzyrection]

If Rob Lewis wasn't lighting it up for DU we'd be blowing them out in that very tough road gym.

This is the biggest 2nd half of the season, so let's tear 'em up!

Wow....this is great. No one does this to the Pioneers in their house. Hell, they beat WKU.

Anyone having trouble with chat? I have tried it on Firefox and IE and am just in the hold screen of death.

Also, we're up 16, so I guess we might be able to hold on and keep the coaches.

[chrisfisher]

The low scoring Princeton offense looks really, really bad when it is not working. Great defense! And poor shooting by DU.
