Great news! Hope Comcast Jackson/Monroe picks up the right feed instead of FSE like they did all through the summer.
Here is the link to Fox Sports Southwest's TV listings.
Better drink some coffee or a Redbull before the game.
Win this game and Tech's RPI will move up into the high 60's with the road game @ Centenary followed by 3 home contests. What an incredible opportunity for the Dawgs to gain some national basketball exposure.
Yep -
Keep winning and rpi takes care of itself
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Watched about half of the Arizona/OU game. I feel like we match up well with them, I think we're more athletic and we have a better bench. Should be a good one, I still think we come away with a W.
Arizona is a CBS College Sports affiliate so you can get the game through CBS on the computer. $14.95
I would wait until close to kick off time to see if there is a free video stream for the game on channelsurfing.
I would imagine channelsurfing will have it.

"Tech's game at Arizona on Dec. 9 was set up, in part, to allow senior F David Jackson a chance to play in his hometown."
IMO the most intriguing part of this game will be how does Arizona try and match up with us to start the game.
According to minutes per game, their starting lineup should be...
PG- Nic Wise (5'10 177 SR) 16.6 ppg 4.7 assists 42.7% fg
SG- Brendon Lavender (6'3 205 SO) 5.1 ppg 34% fg
SF1-Jemelle Horne (6'6 209 JR) 10.6 ppg 8.6 rpg 2.4 bpg 33% FT 41% fg
SF2- Solomon Hill (6'6 195 FR) 9.3 ppg 5.1 rpg
SF3- Derrick Williams (6'7 210 FR) 14.6 ppg 6 rpg
Key #1 should be limit Nic Wise. I expect to see DeAndre Brown and Jamel Guyton to be lined up on him all night. If we can limit Nic then their 2 true freshmen should press.
Key #2 is Horne. He can be a shot blocking machine. 7 blocks against Colorado. Also their leading rebounder. Magnum and Olu need to go to work to wear him down and keep him out of the game. Horne leads their team in fouls so Olu and Magnum need to play under control early in the game so maybe we can force Horne to the bench. I honestly do not think Hill or Williams will have any luck guarding any of our "bigs."
Also Horne has been crappy at the line all year shooting 33%. That said he has only been to the line 12 times. Last year he went to the line 67 times (averaging 29 mpg). Meaning he likes to take outside shots instead of getting dirty in the paint. We need to throw off his rhythm to make him feel he needs to drive to hoop. And hopefully if he starts drawing fouls, his free throw percentage won't increase.
