Nicholls (11/14/13)

[CMJ]

Let's see if we can build on our effort against the Sooners.

[North Texas Shep]

Sadly, I have to work till 7, but I will be there late. How is the Nicholls team looking? We not play like crap, like we did against Northwood, the premier college in Cedar Hill.

[That_Guy_Arlo]

Ready to get our Southland conference season underway!

[CMJ]

Not sure I'll be around for the whole game tonight....I may have to honor a commitment and leave around the start of the 2nd half. We'll see. Don't really wanna go, seeing as this is one of the few wins I have penciled in this season.

[Andrew]

I just realized that after this we play 4 games in 6 days... That has to be brutal on the players. I pray for no injuries. I wonder if that will lead to an unnecessary lose just due to the players being tired...

I think that would show up next week, not today.

All the teams in Portland are playing back to back to back games. Our 4th game is at home vs Incarnate Word, really no excuse to lose to them.

I've never really bought into being tired when it comes to college bb teams.. Most of these kids are only a year or two removed from AAU where you can play 3,4 games a day and/or 7+ games a weekend

I just hate to see a body wear down and get injuries. That is the last thing we need. We were the third most injuries team in all of college basketball last year. And we saw how that worked out for us...

I'll go to this game. Right down the street from my apartment and this is my last chance to use student tickets before I graduate. Hope to see some positive stuff.

[Andrew]

See you at the game! Let's go green!

[CMJ]

Hoping we have a decent turnout.

[CMJ]

Pregame is on....GMG!

[ChristopherRyanWilkes]

Crowd is sparse to say the least.

Right there with ya.

These kids play everyday during the off season at whatever Rec center they wanna play at.

They are 19-22, not 38 (or in their mid-late 40s, for that matter). 4 ganes in 6 days is a piece of cake.

[CMJ]

Tipoff time.

[ChristopherRyanWilkes]

Lazy and sloppy start

Not a promising start. Still early though.

[greenminer]

Drawing early fouls by the bunch from Nicholls.

Trailing, but setting up nicely for a lot of freebies at the line.

[CMJ]

Nicholls 16

NT 10

11:51 to go

As Miner said....all these fouls we're drawing could really keep us in the game.

[Army of Dad]

11:51 left and Nichols just committed their 10 foul.

They are up 16-10 however...

[ChristopherRyanWilkes]

Cannot shoot though,are all our points free throws so far?

[BillySee58]

Getting to the free throw line with ease. We're so much more talented than these guys.

[CMJ]

We may foul all their team out.

[greenit]

Huge advantage to playing at least a three guard lineup on offense. Just keep driving to basket and with new rules almost guaranteed of a foul no matter who you are. Hard to watch all the fouls being called early in the season.

[CMJ]

Nicholls 26

NT 18

7:57 to go

This is not looking good fellas. It might be a good thing that I had other plans that I forgot about. Getting beat badly by this team would make me wanna throw something.

Hope we turn it around. GMG!
