We passed test 1 on Long Island. Now the big one at Patrick Gymnasium.

 

It doesn't look to be listed on AE TV.

 

Below is the Vermont Streaming link through NSN..not sure the cost

Will be interesting to see how this team plays behind in a game as well. I don't think they've been behind more than 4 points since the Niagara game. It's still early, but can't deny that this game won't determine seeding come playoff time. Like I said earlier 2 games up on uvm and SBU is huge, especially when we still have 5 conference game at home.

[Clickclack]

This is an important game from the standpoint of, if we somehow manage to pull this game out and go up 2 on SBU and UVM, we would find ourselves in a commanding position going into the stretch run.

 

A loss here brings us closer to the pack. UVM ALWAYS give us a hard time in the regular season, especially up there. This has been a strange year though, normally by now we have a let down game or two, this team however feels really mentally sound. They don't appear to be letting up, just methodically dismantling teams. Interested to see what happens here.

This is such a tough game to call. We don't play well in the regular season in Vermont but on the other hand we are playing very well right now.

[UA'08]

I will have to go with the danes here. Brown is a big game coach and will have these guys ready. Hope they leave today with the blizzard coming. Make travel for the team as easy and safe as possible.

And how bout that annoying NJIT game right smack in the middle of February? That's a game I am not lookin forward to. Buzzkill.

Albany isn't going undefeated in conference. At some point someone is going to get us.

[UA'08]

Agreed, but they haven't showed me any reason why not to believe they will continue to win lol. I did not think they would win at sbu. Thought that with all the emotion from the sbu game they'd lose in Hartford. Umbc a trap game so I thought they might lose, but took care of business.

Now, the regular conference season games actually mean a hell of a lot.

Clack says that we won't go undefeated in conference play... something I favor. A loss brings a team back down to earth a bit.

But let's not take a loss against uvm. Tough game but we can take the win in Burlington.

I personally don't subscribe to the notion that you need to lose to be brought down to earth. Win every game you possible can, hopefully the coaches can keep them humbled and focused. No reason to suspect so far they can't.

[UAalum72]

Right, I don't want a team to get into a mindset that they might lose.

[UA_MA_2000]

I believe that we have only won one regular season game at Patrick Gymnasium one time during the regular season if my memory serves me well.

[UA'08]

We won two back to back years. 07-08 and 08-09 I believe.

They really played Sam tough and our 3 pt. shooting not that impressive. Baker's aggressiveness is a terrific boost off the bench. Good to see Stire get pts. It seems we are finding ways to score in different ways which bodes well for a more consistent regular season.

[danstep]

gonna be honest...as tough a place as it is to win.....I'd be disappointed if we lose given the fact outside of Hector and O'Day they are playing alot of Frosh....this game with Pete out may the game it shows up...hope not...
