Excellent idea. Whatever they need to get asses in the seats. Should be a before and after the game. To make sure they get people to stay for the game.

Stony Brook game notes

WB on the radio says he'll be disappointed if the crowd is less than 3,500 tonight. Lu Jordan will be in the house.

 

Expects Peter to play 15-20 minutes again.

 

Says he's been getting hammered by texts, tweets, and in-laws about the SB Nation Top Ten Sexiest listing

[UA_MA_2000]

If SB starts hitting their three pointers this game could easily go south for us. Defense will be critical tonight. Keep them under 60 and in low 20s after the first half.

Agreed. The 3-pt defense has to be better than it was against NJIT, as if they also have Warney inside. Pick your poison.

[UA'08]

3 pt defense

[danstep]

I agree 3 point D, our gym seems to be a good shooting gym at times for our opponents....can't wait for Peter to get the call tonight to enter....the crowd reaction should be alot of fun...

[godanesgo99]

We ran into Puriefoy in the midst of a major slump. He has gotten much better since then. Being the pessimist I am, and considering the conference winning streak that I doubt can last for the season, I fear that tonight will not be pretty.

 

That said, this will be a great game for my first time ever sitting in a courtside seat!

 

Prediction: Stony Brook 78, Albany 71

 

What I want to happen: Albany 81, Stony Brook 40 - would be nice to more than double their score...

[Eli]

I say 65-63 UAlbany.

With the advances Dallas has made and the experience of our JUCO guard guys gained while Pete's been gone I think UA is a lot better now than at the first SBU game. SBU has had two relatively easy outings recently and looking good is not hard. Their only tough game, at home vs. Vt was a disaster.

 

Of course a team can always get hot and we can be cold, that's the nature of the game. Based on quality of play and development as a team, UA has the definite edge. Reintegration of Pete is, in my mind, the only variable under coaching control that is unclear.

Is this game on ESPN3 or AmEast.tv?

 

Edit: Found it on ESPN3.
