At least I don't think we see any Bronco football players get in the game.....

Maximize D, 3's % (45% or +), and Carter inside - Minimize TO's and missed FT's - We can win this.

Wonder if there's any way we could get Hawkins to suspend some guys?

They play well at times, but they are weak defensively. Opponents fg% almost 50%.

Why 6 p.m.? Why this game, on a night parent-teacher conferences will keep me at school until 7:30?

I don't know this for a fact, but I'll assume it to be related to TV. Maybe there's another game on TWC/ASN at 8pm?

Oh, that's weird. Thanks for catching it or I would have showed up at halftime. I'm taking a 10 year-old and an 18 month-old (first sporting event) so that might help a bit for me!

Looks like St. Joseph's at Davidson follows at 8 p.m. on ASN.

TV > Fans in stands.

I noticed last week some other conferences had games starting at 6:00 and 6:30PM. At first I thought I was watching reruns of games from the night before.

Six p.m. starts mean I'm 25 percent less likely to fall asleep on the couch watching the game.

Looking forward to this one. Blitzed them last meeting. I suspect they will not want to be the recipient the second time.

Sad to see the poor situation of their forums. Rivals site has converted totally to FB and can't find any of the old members around to talk hoops and their Stampede forum has very little of the old members or talk surrounding the program. Kind of sad....even to the point where there are posts in threads from members of other schools asking where certain individuals have gone as they miss contributions (although I think a guy from EMU on a WMU board with 2K posts is more than a "Lurker") THe poster in question is alive in IL and choosing not to participate reportedly....

RE: Missing Person Report - Where's...
i'm a regular lurker on your board, and a big reason is because of the quality of GBL's posts. i hope he's doing alright.

Fans are disgusted http://csnbbs.com/thread-804274.html

Central Ohio - Figuring on either the Blarney Stone (inquiring about availability) or BDubs on Bethel to watch tonight.

Edit: Blarney Stone confirmed big screen coverage tonight.

This should be an interesting test for Ohio. We beat WMU by 31 at home four weeks ago, but Tony had 22 pts, 2 assts and 12 rebs. BG and WMU are about the same talent-wise, so not having half their team gone should make WMU more competitive. I was concerned at halftime Saturday when we led by only 11. I was wondering what the score would've been if BG didn't have a half-dozen walk-ons on their bench.
