The Gonzaga Game...

South Carolina may be terrible, but other than 2006, that arena has been a house of horrors for us since 2002.

We may turn out to be the best game on Saturday, but ESPN may have picked our game over AZ-Memphis in part to get more viewers, figuring people already know about that game.
ESPN2 is actually showing 6 straight games beginning at 12PM, including an SEC-West Coast challenge with the San Diego-UK game right before ours. We'll take on the cream of the WCC and leave the scheduling of the bottom feeders to them. :birgits_giggle:

If South Carolina is smart, which they've never proven to be before, they'll get on their knees and beg Bob McKillop to try a BCS conference job.

With this logic you're saying Tennessee is Sweet 16 at best this season based on its performance in Newark. Did you watch the UTC game earlier this year or the WKU game in Nashville? I'll hold off my reservations on calling them a great road team until after tomorrow and until they can pick up a signature road conference win.

Uh... OK.

That's because ESPN was just in Memphis for the Memphis and Gtown game last Sat.

They've been hampered with injuries through much of the season. Heytvelt is finally back, but has yet to play significant action so I don't know how effective he can be. Austin Daye has been in a bit of a shooting slump. Pargo is one of the most underated players in the nation, he could give us all kinds of fits. Micah Downs is a versatile player that I wouldn't sleep on. David Pendergraft and Matt Bouldin also compliment each other rather nicely. We've yet to see Bruce press much this season, but I bet he will press as much as ever today. He doesn't want to get into a half-court slugfest with this team. We're going to need our big guys to step up down low today in order to win. They have a significant size advantadge in pretty much ever position. It should be a good game, I say we win by a 5-7 point margin

I still have no idea where you got that fact.

What fact? You were making judgments off of a one game observation. I was just informing you about 4 other games away from TBA and how they were all close games. We had no business letting UTC hang around. WVU is 10-1 but they've yet to find out about them(they do play OU today so we'll find out) WKU is a solid team that's likely to make the tournament and well, Texas is a 8-10 place team and they completely dismantled us. If you're going to make an accusation about how we should play on the road you should take in consideration our whole road game criteria before making a judgment over a 1 game span.

I know you can't always judge on one game, but last years team who let Auburn score about 20 unanswered points in like 3 minutes would not have beaten Xavier on the road.
