Tremendous chance to pull it together. USU has been on a hot streak the last 8 games or so.

Good grief! A 9:00pm local time start? Benson may have done well with the overall ESPN package, but he didn't check the starting times fine print in the contract.

I'm putting this one in the loss column. I'm the lone voice in the wilderness on this issue. We should put in our contract with any leftward leaning location that we won't start past 8:00 p.m. our time.

I know, it is impossible to do get our way on the time start, but as long as we keep playing games that finish after midnight, we will continue to lose. It is a biorhythm thing.

[TECH88]

I think we'll show up in Logan.

I hope you are right. I felt good about it until I saw the start time. They just need to be like the Marine Corp and adapt and overcome.

[Dwayne From Minden]

I think we get our heads handed to us in Logan -

KG and Mag have to combine for 50+ for us to have a fighting chance....

This team in not playing the same type ball as we were when they smoked em in Ruston - almost like its two totally different teams on both sides -

With that said, I think we bounce back @ NU in the bracketbuster....

Me too. As my father used to say, "Nothing good happens after midnight." We will be playing at 6:00 or 7:00 there, am I right?

I think so - because the witching hour CST is about when things should start coming unglued....

(Maybe they are reading my comments about this game and Condie is posting them on the white board in the war room - so if they win I will take full credit :icon_wink

Yep. This will be a huge hurdle for us. After that 82-60 BEATDOWN we administered to them last month you know they will be wanting to exact some revenge on national tv (ESPN2).

[SuperiorBlueDiver]

Should be a good game. I very much can't wait for it. The Spectrum will be at it's peak this week. We play you guys on ESPN2 on Wed. and then Wichita State on ESPN2 on Saturday. We've won 10 in a row and students have gotten some national pub this week since we were on ESPN twice last week. So the students will be fired up about that. (all 4,000 of them) Also the fans are very well aware of the beatdown you guys laid on us so it gives a little extra incentive to affect the game the best we can. Here's to a great battle for first place in the WAC!!!

Biggest game of the year so far

Cant wait
