South Alabama (2/17/11)

CMJ · February 16, 2011

The guys return home after the thrashing in Diddle. With a four game losing streak, we we have serious problems. However, USA has lost three of four themselves (and have been pretty lousy on the road)- so this appears to be a good spot to try and turn it around. We looked way off against FAU, but the SuperPit still has been very good for us in recent years.

Fingers crossed.

I'll take it.

CMJ · February 17, 2011

Dare I say this is the start of a huge 5 game stretch? :ph34r:

Double dare ya'...I think it's safe to say the good ol' cliches are not helping us get back on track.

But, no harm in trying?

CMJ · February 17, 2011

I'd take a bullet for this team if we get some wins.

I'm hoping for 4000+ tonight. I'm torn between whether or not I think this 4 game slide will significantly affect attendance. My gut says not that much, but the only way to make sure it doesn't is to get the word out. I said this in the attendance report, but if you are a student on this board, like I am, text your friends, change your facebook status, etc. Just do whatever you can to get people to the game. This team needs a big crowd more than ever. See you tonight! Go Mean Green!

Agree. Let's get some rears in the seats tonight and show this team our support and that the Mean Green nation has certainly NOT given up on them! My bride and I will be there to watch the Mean green end the skid and return to their rightful winning ways!

GO MEAN GREEN...On to Hot Springs with a Bye!

I'm sure the slide will not affect attendance, because unfortunately not many students pay attention

A lot of students have night classes which greatly affect attendance. Tuesday and Thursday are huge for night classes.

On a side note: did anyone read the DRC article about Alonzo? Should we renew his scholarship next year? They say he needs some pretty major surgery. Where do we go if we do not have Alonzo or spencer next year?.... im going to create this as a topic now actually

Fixed.

Right now a "huge" night for Josh would be 10 points.

Good starts by George and Josh.

Been really close so far. I don't believe either team has been up by more than 3 yet.

NT 25

USA 25

7:34 to go

Mean Green down 5, went on a bit of a run to get the game back level. USA and NT have since traded buckets.

CMJ · February 18, 2011

My computer went nuts for a few minutes - so I missed the under 4 media timeout. Score is 38-31 USA with about 1:30 to go in the half

USA 39

Halftime

bstnsportsfan3 · February 18, 2011

South Al is shooting 60% and were only down 6 while being in foul trouble....if we stay out of foul trouble i see us pulling it out, i dont think they shoot 60% again plus were winning the glass and points in the paint...

CMJ · February 18, 2011

It seemed like everything USA shot went in. I really hope they can't keep it up.

CMJ · February 18, 2011

USA 46

Jags timeout

Hogans with a big block has spurred us into a 6-0 run.

Our defense seems a bit better at the moment. Need to keep it up.

CMJ · February 18, 2011

USA 54

NT 52

11:31 to go

We got the game tied at 52, but USA retook the lead seconds later. Playing with much more urgency right now. Still having trouble keeping them from scoring, but playing better on defense than we have lately.
