@ New Hampshire

[UA'08]

Still only a game out of 4th and a top half finish.

 

you're absoutely right. these games just hurt especially when there's not much of the season left. heres to winning out and going 10-6.

 

I predicted 12 wins before the season started. If we can manage to get to 13+ I'd be very happy with the progress.

 

i just want to see consistent play and improvements all around. we have been horrible at the line all year which i just dont get.

Devlin with 10pts, 14rb, 2stl and 2blk. Probably locked up another ROW if he can manage a half decent outing Saturday.

OTOH, if UMBC beats Binghamton tonight at home, we'll be only a game out of last place.

I would think that DJ Irving scoring 16 points on 7 shots against Maine might put him in the running.

I'm not seeing 14rb or 2blks...not even a steal.

My 2cents after Vermont was still pretty positive and optimistic. After UNH, I and the team are at a turning point. Saturday is a MUST win and BU @ msg and SBU @ home are equally important. If this team is moving in the right direction (after Vt I thought they were), we should win ALL remaining games except possibly the last @ Maine (and even that is winnable). In my opinion anything less than 5 out of 6, as far as I am concerned it is as bad as last year.

 

Also, last year Tartt's missed dunk seemed to totally destroy his confidence and game; I hope the two misssed foul shots by Watts does not do the same thing to him. I have not been a Watts fan, but have acknowleged his improvement lately and I hope he does not suffer Tartt's fate. For what its worth, Iati makes those foul shots--at least one, he finds a way to win and Watts still seems just too nervous (hopeful but not confident). I know it is not fair to compare the two and they each bring different strengths and weaknesses to the game; but I still feel Iati plays with a lot more energy and confidence than Watts.

 

Enough ranting for now 5 out of 6 or bust.

[Clickclack]

I'd be very very happy with 4 out of 6 the rest of the way for an 8-8 record in the AE.

 

Tomorrows game is huge

That should have nothing to do with it. You can walk from just about any part of Durham to Ludholm. In fact, I would gather students are going to get piss drunk...and have nothing else to do so they could have a crowd. Most professors live within walking distance as well.

 

I know you can walk...I grew up there. Walking in the cold is no fun and people don't usually do it, especially if it's snowing. And you overestimate students' and professors' interest in UNH basketball.

I thought the same thing. Different team and a different guy so hopefully a different result. He's been playing with a lot more confidence so I'm hoping he can shake this off.

 

It doesn't have the greatest ring to it but I'm going with Clickclack's hope for an 8-8 finish or of course better. I didn't think we could have a more painful loss this year than the Maine game until friggin New Hampshire. It's woulda, coulda, should but we are annoyingly close to being 6-4 right now. Oh well. We'll have to hope for a belated Australia Day Celebration at the Growl tomorrow!
