No way...it's great. Just because it's not your team doesn't mean you have to dislike it. They've been really good.
Oh it’s not a comment on GCU at all, I just think it’s humorous when they were down by 9 and made a two the way the announcers react is as if it was a tied game

Second half is going to last 2 hours with all the FT's.

Not the finish I was hoping for once their two best players went out with 3 fouls each...

Stream on the tv, WCIA on the smart speaker. Took a bit to get synced, but worth it after hearing the GCU announcers

I love the emphatic announcing. Nothing worse than tuning in to low key monotone announcing.

I think Dan needs to go down and have a few belts. He looks like a tomato about to explode.

Anyone else notice they keep "featuring" people supposedly watching from a plethora of IL cities on the twitter feed at the bottom? I've seen Tuscola, Springfield, Belleville and Champaign (lol) so far.

We make every team better than they are
By saying we make every team better, you're giving our guys too much credit. GCU is still the same team that lost to a DII squad and they look like it. We're still the same team who went to OT with Nichols State and we look like it.

Score is not ideal, but their big guy has three fouls. I think Kofi will get 10 more quick points and their short rotation will be tired and in foul trouble in the second half.

I think we win easily, and a good test of road environment. That said, most of the teams we play will be more talented and deeper, so this isn’t exactly encouraging either.

Our lackadaisical passing is beyond frustrating given the aspirations of this team.
