Hoping for a three OT Cinci win. Wear them down and then we beat them...

I'm against conference tournaments on anyone's home court.

Also - are tickets super expensive or something? More people at a standard UCONN game. UCONN Cinci is a good game any day, let alone at the tournament, in Hartford. What gives?

They only sell all session passes before the day of then you get a session pass and then other schools get an allotment as well so not all UCONN fans.If I'm TU, Temple and SMU I'm rooting for Cincinnati

Cincy gets every rebound. Can't afford to miss many shots. Cobb is not on fire like he was against us.

I.I., Cincy is getting inside much easier against UCONN then they were against us. We forced them to take a lot of outside shots which is normally a good thing, except they had like 50 offensive rebounds against us. Our guard defense was excellent, our interior rebounding not so much. However, if we get a decent crew tomorrow, Ellis will have 3 first half fouls with 10 minutes still to play.

Cincy gets away with hammering a lot of people. Boatright just made one of the sickest baseline drives and finishes I have seen in a long time

Maybe the ugliest half of basketball this year. I'll be surprised is Cincy makes it through this game without someone getting ejected. Playing like a bunch of goons

This game is getting insane. UCONN hitting 3's and Cincinnati just muscling through underneath. Would it be too much to ask Ellis and Brimah to throw a few punches at one another before it's said and done?

16 min. played in 2nd half, UCONN 6 fouls, Cincy 3. Really? Cincy basically plays football on the court and only 3 fouls? How is Cincy getting the calls on UCONN's home court (although technically neutral)?

Seriously? The first time I route for Cinci they screw me. Solo close to getting the OT I wanted.

IMHO, pretty well seals our fate. UCONN at home and a quality SMU makes it tough.

So know I cheer for Temple. We beat UCONN (on the court we lost by 15 on a few weeks ago). Then cripple sweep Temple.

Just that easy.

(Crap crap crap crap)

Not looking good - their place will be rocking. Will need our best shooting game of the year to have a prayer.

Actually I feel good about this matchup. Third game in three days for UCONN and Woodard is healthy. Remember, when we lost to them Juice had the flu and zero points.

Win tomorrow then worry about it. Right now, one game at a time.

Up until his interview during the Coug game, I agreed somewhat Junkie. That interview was just hatin at TU. He bags our worse loss as 150 and lack of NCAA tourney team wins then says Temple twice wasn't good enough. F him. Cincys two best wins are countered by two 200+ losses. Just sayin.

Exactly. Win tomorrow is all that matters right now.

I doubt the Committee will view this as a neutral game. Playing UConn in front 12k+ of their rabid fans gives them a HUGE homecourt advantage.

You can be certain the committee will watch this game, TU really needs to bring their 'A' game. I don't care if this will be UConn's 3rd game in 3 days, considering what's at stake, beating UConn in Hartford will be a monumental task.
I am going out on a limb, but if TU plays well, goes toe-to-toe from tip-to-buzzer, but comes up short, I believe TU will still have a shot at one of the "first 4" spots, assuming Wyoming doesn't become a bid theif.

This game will definately be an "eye test", throw the metrics out the window, beating UConn on their court carries more weight than beating a Top 40 RPI Cincy. Lunardi is drunk to think beating UConn on their cvourt is not a quality win.

I can't even put into words the meltdown of Cinci fans about refs on the AAC board.

After attacking any ref comment from Tulsa fans all year. Because "badass effing big east basketball mother effers".
