If that midget Keiten Page scores more than 3 points tonight so help me God! I just looked and he averages 13 ppg and I don't know how that's possible. I get irritated just watching him play, can't explain it.

kidding i think we probably lose but itll be close
Hey hey- take it easy on the midget comments. He's a little taller than I am... :embarrassed:
CW, I like it when you give a shout out to the scout team guy who played the part of the key player for the opponent in practice. Thanks for doing that.
I predict he will get at least 3 at the FT line alone. The little guy will get the benefit of the calls.
By the way, looking at their lineup, who do they put on Garrett? I would think that at 6'4" DG would be able to expoit either of their guards height (they give up 7" to him) and he should have a quickness advantage over their forwards. Any guesses?
I was thinking about this yesterday. I have no idea how OSU will try to defend us. We've done a great job of taking advantage of switches, and I could see that happening in this game too. If one of their guards switches to JVB, Ejim or Godfrey, we need to isolate and feed them.
I have to think Page or Penn will be guarding DG, and I'd like to see him post up on the block a couple times. In the KU game DG posted up Morningstar (I think) and JVB's guy slid down into the lane and DG kicked it out for a wide open 3. I think that might be available all night.
I really think we match up well against them, but we need to hit our 3s and stay out of foul trouble, as always.
I really wish Chris would have picked us to lose. Now i have a feeling were going to lose. When Chris picks us to win, it seems not to go that way.
I don't feel good about tonight. It seems like we had a chance to make some noise pre-season if we had beat UNI, but we didn't. And now we have a real chance to make some noise in the conference if we win tonight and I don't like our chances.
But the positive is that it is a real no lose situation for us. Hopefully our guys shoot well and play loose.
I've decided that I am making a win countdown for us. I think 8 wins gets us in the conversation for the NCAA and even though I don't think we'll get there, it might be fun to do :) Unlike last year when every loss was a kick to the stomach, this year every win is a gift.
Godfrey is the key to this game. If he can help keep Moses off the glass without fouling we'll win.
Bring on the Cowboys and the dirty old man mascot they have.

Looks like he has had one too many smokes.
Oh No, Chris Williams picked us to win. Ahh! The "Williams Jinx" is upon us.*
I kid, I kid.... but if we lose tonight Chris, so help me God! (shakes fist a la Homer Simpson).
