MBB: vs Colgate - 11/19/15 @ 7PM

[jimbo]

AE feed was good for me, only a few hiccups. I liked what I saw. Peters is much better than last year. Cremo is growing. Hooley will get his groove back.

[UA'08]

The over wins! How was the banner ceremony? Are there temporary video boards again? The feed is about a million times better than last year. We've come a long way, but don't know if that's the America east that requires it. There are replays in the feed which is great.

I was impressed with the crowd. Lots of students in attendance. I hope they keep up the support.

 

They announced the championship team, but I didn't see any banner dropped.

 

Lights off for the intros was nice.

 

Video monitors not there.

 

It got messy for a bit with about 4:00 left and it looked like Colgate could make a run with the pressure D and when they pulled to within 13. A pretty impressive performance.

 

Stony Brook is beating #17 Vanderbilt at the moment late in the second half on ESPN3 if anyone is interested...

 

Go Danes!

SBU loses to Vandy in OT

 

Other opponents tonight: NJIT beat Boston U 90-76, New Hampshire beat Holy Cross by 4, Yale beat Lehigh

Actually, I feel like we're going to break out and shoot 40% from 3 and 48% from the field overall.

 

CALLED IT!

 

Ray Sanders shutting a few people up so far tonight.

Certainly shut me up. Kid was BALLIN today.

 

Team did a real nice job overall IMO. If we can play like this more often, we'll easily win 20 games.

Bench is deep...Andrews and Cremo did some real good things coming off the bench.

 

I think it's going to be us and SBU in the Final again...

[Dane Pound]

That was fun.

 

Our offense covered up most of our defensive lapses but we're getting there. If I had to nitpick I'd point out that we're still not shooting great from the free throw line.

 

I liked the minutes for Cremo for Singletary. He might have forced a shot early but seemed to settle down.

 

CB said earlier this season that he'd like to get the rotation down to 8 guys, I'm not sure how that will happen but it's a good problem to have.

 

My third straight year watching that Tillotson kid for Colgate. His team lost tonight but the he competes hard every minute he's out on the floor. Tough player.

I know this is the wrong thread/topic, but Oneonta's schedule has Saturday's game as an exhibition….

Lets just all imagine it to be true and cheer Oneonta for the effort

[danstep]

only 3 games in and looks like Dallas will be the odd man out without injuries....I actually wanted CB to put him in the last 5 minutes of BU game to see if HE could make a jumper since nobody else could....I agree, the AE is OURS to lose, nobody elses....

[Dane96]

You haven't watched SBU play, then...

 

While we are still the champs, and need to be knocked out, SBU is a prohibitive favorite if they get anything out of a big man bench player. The additions of Woodhouse and Walker are huge.

One game doesn't make a season however, they played a long, athletic, and prolific scoring team, in Vandy, that's really tough.

 

To think that a 12 pt a game starter last season (Nyama) is coming off the bench....

I watched the game, no question SBU is the favorite as the season gets underway. They are that good...

Listed attendance last night was 3711. Maybe a little higher than I thought, but it was a good crowd. Student sections nearly full.

Yeah, it was a great crowd, into the game and all. Good time all around.

I agree SB has the physical talent to win the AE but they still have yet to prove the mental toughness needed to win those 3 games in March. They find a way to get tight when the pressure is on (unlike our CB led gamers). We always play up senior leadership in those situations and still SB finds ways to fold the past 5 or so years. They have the seniors again and I still like our chances in the championship game till they prove us and their school wrong. Pressure to win is going to be huge for them and it comes down to the coach. Our guy is leaps and bounds better than theirs in preparing for the mental aspect of the AE tournament.

When the students come out, it's great. However, I'm not heard as easily with my quips...which makes it less fun for me . Kidding.
