We got this.

BennyJ · Nov 20, 2012, 08:20 PM

hopefully we can play at about 80% of the intensity last night and spread around the minutes tonight, got to rest for tomorrow

Sure Shot · Nov 20, 2012, 08:20 PM

Please don't lose

ILL · Nov 20, 2012, 08:21 PM

We got this one. Bummed we won't get to face UNC.

Kramer116 · Nov 20, 2012, 08:21 PM

Of course the line is somehow cut to my place so no TV or Internet until tomorrow... Thank god for the iPhone!

trevdv · Nov 20, 2012, 08:22 PM

Let's go! We've got this one in the bag... Just FYI, there's a football game on ESPN2 that won't end for another 10-20 mins. It'll be a close call considering the game isn't online either.

Personally, this team needs to scratch and claw to get every win possible in the out of conference schedule. We are lucky to face Chaminade and if we win would feel we have a much better chance of beating Butler than unc.

It would be nice to bring home that gigantic cup from this tourney. I think an invite win would bring us at least close to T25

Agreed. Our SOS will take care of itself with our conference schedule plus Gonzaga and Mizzou. Every win we can get in non conference is obviously huge.

What is up with this Toledo football game that is on ESPN2 right now? No way it looks like this is going to end by 9:30.

gandalf · Nov 20, 2012, 08:27 PM

Forced to watch Akron Toledo while waiting for ILL basketball to start. can't help notice Beck's old team doing quite well without him.

Brookslyn · Nov 20, 2012, 08:27 PM

is there an internet radio broadcast of this game?

stevo99 · Nov 20, 2012, 08:27 PM

I'd be curious as to when 2 unranked teams played for the Maui title?

Well in fairness, he did recruit that team. So he deserves some of the credit for that.
