So far we're 3-0 vs teams beginning with A (Appy St, APB, Alcorn) and 0-3 vs the rest of the alphabet. If this keeps up, we'll win five games this year.

OhioBobcats.com has it listed as a 9:00 start. Maybe an 8:00 Indiana time start? Indiana time always confuses me. Maybe borna can help out?

EDIT: Just Googled and Evansville is in the Central Time Zone. The Evansville website shows an 8 PM start so it is a 9 PM start in Ohio.

I'm not Xs and Os guy but it seems to me this team should play inside-out. Get Campbell and Ndour on the low block and feed them the ball over and over and over. Somebody needs to dig up the old plays we ran from Brandon Hunter and give them a shot.

Nothing to help with here. We went with the rest of the world. The smarter folks in Evansville and The region stayed with Chicago (central time) which we should have done. It is baffling to look at the pics of NYC and Boston where it is daylight and be stuck way out here where it is still dark. Should have been on CDT.

In short the border towns on the west side of the state (where sanity prevails) are on CDT. The rest of us are still in the dark late into the morning.

So far this year the Men's BB team is following the same pattern as the Football team......all our wins are against teams with loosing records.
This next game will probably follow suite.

Nope but the cows and kids standing on bus stops still get up in the dark. I suspect the politicians voted for the time zone in order to get their golf in before the sun goes down in fall and spring.

Or, you could say Ohio is 3-0 v. teams beginning with a vowel. Meaning we should win this Saturday.

Now that's a glass half full line if I ever heard one.

That happened to us a few weeks a year. Not a big deal.

On the Phillips show they said the start time was due to it being a doubleheader, and the mens game is second. 9ET

Apparently OUr guards aren't X's and O's types either........or there's some X's and O's missing in practice........

In which case we'll wind up with nine wins.

It must be a dribble glass. (Hah. Two b-ball references in there.)

I have a hunch that this team will put together it's first real "complete" game of the season against Evansville. I'll go out on a limb and say we win this thing 78-68. We get better play from Stevie, Mo being Mo, Tony C stays out of foul trouble and has another double-double, and Bean shakes off the poor shooting in the last game.

All that said, we probably lose by 20...

Bobcats better find a way to limit Balentine. He's a nice player and can attack the rim. Nice opportunity on the road against a solid mid-major. Planned a trip so I can attend. My bro is a UE grad, attending with him, so should be fun. Hope he owes me a beer afterward!

Anyone ever watched a webcast out of Evansville on the AcesTV? Wondering if it is worth the $6.95 to watch or just listen to Russ.

No kidding. He didn't have a very good game against us last year but if Craig Bradshaw lit us up for 42 I shudder to think what Balantine might do. Let's hope we've worked a lot on defense this week.

Sounds like if you have a good connection, it'll work fine.

We'll see though. I'm gonna try it.
