Past two championship games we've gotten off to really bad starts. 10-0 and 9-0 and we've battled back. Need to come out firing.

The example has to be the 2006 chipper against Vermont. The news story is gone from the dept. archives, but we were up 18 at the half.

 

BTW the refs for that game nine years ago were Fran Connolly, Bob Adams, and John Hughes. Only Connolly has had the sense to retire.

 

Connolly actually worked a game where the officiating crew allowed one team to play with 6 players in the final seconds of regulation with the game tied!

It would be great to come out, hit our first five shots, have the crowd go crazy and for SBU to just roll up into a ball but I don't think it's going to happen. I expect this to be 40 minutes of gut check.

 

Last Sunday Vermont thought they landed a knockout in the first half and SBU stormed back. They've done that several times this year.

 

It'll be interesting to see how guys who haven't been in this situation before react to Saturday's game. Both teams have a lot of guys who've played well this year but haven't been in a game like this before.

Richard Peters is the only Dane big enough and strong enough to handle Warney. He is going to have to stop being a nice guy for whatever minutes he gets. My money is on Singletary. He likes the show and he is a cool customer.

Two billboards on my way home. One at 90w/787 interchange was for the women's game tomorrow. One heading 90w towards the campus had a UAlbany Home of Championships type ad. Too much traffic to take a pic.

Edit: I see someone got a screen grab from a camera on the billboard let me post the pic

Someone asked about the dorms ..found this on a TU article

 

The dorms close at 6 p.m. Friday for spring break, but that doesn't mean students won't be able to stay for both games, said Karl Luntta, the school's director of media relations.

"There are some dorms that stay open during the break," Luntta said. "We make accommodations for students to stay here if they made prior notifications."
