Denver (2/26/12)

[CMJ]

So, we have a bye now. We'll probably play DU a week after this contest. SBC Quarterfinal preview? Or do both teams play close to the vest?

Death to Denver. Suck it altitude!

I HATE DENVER.

[golfingomez]

i actually love Denver as a city... that place is awesome...

that being said... i would say to play the backups... but they get in so much foul trouble, you might as well play the starters

[CMJ]

I just hate that we're gonna have to play them back to back (most likely).

I know! And I don't remember ever seeing this scenario play out.

BTW, what's with the Sunday game time? I don't see this listed on ESPN3, so this isn't about television opportunity. It must be due to a school's scheduling conflict?

[risinggreen]

I'm hoping that playing them back to back is to our advantage. We don't defend against that type of offense every day, and hopefully having all next week will give us time to plan and make the right adjustments.

Trying to listen to the pre-game show on KNTU, but I get nothing on the internet feed.... anyone else get the same?

Well, crap. That's embarrassing. Actually works out better since I had to be at family function today at 3:00. Thanks for letting me know...

Thank you for your courage.

I will be in attendance at the Denver game tomorrow. I look forward to meeting any other Mean Green fans in attendance. Now I am hoping we can someday end up in a conference with CSU and Air Force.

Go Mean Green!!

Twitter chatter says the MBB team is delayed until around 5:00 p.m. Gonna be tough getting into Denver late for a 1:30 game Sunday.

There were tweets about their plane getting delayed 2 hours but I saw nothing about the game being delayed.

[dahbeed]

please beat denver.

[chrisfisher]

please beat denver.

I always look forward to Denver defeats because I like to watch their coach go ballistic and blow a few gaskets... it's quite funny to watch him throw childish temper tantrums, including stomping his feet on the ground or even jumping up and down while flailing his arms around.

If we lose we get ULL... if we win we get Denver. Who wold you rather play? I might prefer to rest our starters get Trey and Forrest some experience and go into hot springs healthy and well rested for ULL.

[Harry]

I don't want ULL. Those guys are very athletic and underrated.

Very athletic! But like CMJ has said, can we beat Denver 3 times in a row? I have no doubt we can but well when statistics are not on your side its hard not to argue. I just ant to get into the tourney healthy and rested though. We can beat either team!

[NTGabe15]

I'd rather have Denver 3 in a row than to play ULL. If we play smart ball against Denver and they're not shooting lights out like they were the first game we'll be fine. ULL was a very consistent, athletic team and I think they're the sleepers in the sun belt.

They just got beat by ULM. Not sure how consistent they really are.

[MeanGreenDan]

It would be hard for them to beat us three times in a row. Rest starters as much as possible today, and bring on ULL.

Don't really see the need to rest anybody with 7 days till next game. Play to win and go to ark with some momentum and confidence

[CMJ]

Pregame is on.

[ntexeagle]

At the game, might be 1000 here.
