After their antics at the Convo last year, I really hope we smash these guys.

For what it's worth Rodell's numbers look a lot like Stevie's this year. Maybe we should give him a standing O for reneging and picking the Beefs.

We need to shut down Regan on the perimeter. I know he's not their best player but he's a strong key. I think that if we share the ball we're good. We shared it tremendously well against Balls. If we start gunning and we make one post entry pass and let the post make 6 moves for a bad shot we're done for.

And pleeeeeeze do not let Wiggington score a single point. I get why he left but let's not let him remember the Convo fondly like we did for Bradds.

Moss will inevitably get OUr bigs in foul trouble, so I think the biggest key is limiting the penetration of their guards Bearden and Evans. That helps a ton, as they assist a lot.

Also, thus far in conference, they haven't been exceptional defensively. Hopefully that continues.

First time using my season tickets. Up from Northern Virginia. Eager to see the Bobcats in person, after watching the video feeds. Amazing difference in play in the last two games. As Saul said TIC, if Bean hits 7-9 three pointers we win a lot of games and need to share that ball! Followed Regan when he got recruited and played for UVA. I agree we need to contain him. Hope to see some BobcatAttack posters at the game. Go Bobcats!!

Good first half from the Cats.. Bean kinda shot us out of a decent lead at the end of the first half, but the effort was good. MO needs to DRIBBLE before he moves and Bobby Hurley is a whiny weasel. Should be a good 2nd half.

I feel like we're getting away from what makes us great again. Bean keeps thinking he has a dagger to throw in but instead he's going too quick into the shot clock. Stevie just got pick pocketed. And too much standing around at both ends. COME ON CATS!!

His whiny Duke side came out in the postgame, saying Saul was too far out on the floor for last 2 plays, called him "unprofessional"

Joking....right??? That's ridiculous. God forbid a coach show energy on the bench.

with 0.6 seconds left on the clock and the full length of the court to go Bobby wanted to draw up a play that involved making a couple of passes over by the Ohio bench but Saul ruined it for him.

Interesting quote from the Beefs board "Our coach can't shut his mouth and as a result the refs are against us in seemingly every second half we play. Our team is talented but insanely cocky and inconsistent."

And yet somehow Hurley will get a big time job next year. Mark it down. He will be coaching a Big 5 school next year. And Buffalo will have to rebuild again.

Apparently the stat system took a dump today (so probably won't be a box unless they do it by hand), but he had 29 I believe.
