SM, you are not a UMass fan if you don't watch it at the Fours. [/quote]

Like Trey Davis said "We will not lose in Chaz Williams backyard."

[Calmass9]

All major factors aside I think Trey is the swing factor in todays game. Need that 2nd ball handler to compose the game when Chaz gets trapped.

I'm utterly terrified of VCU, my head says we end up losing by 10; my heart says we'll fight, grind and win a 3 point game. What a run, UMass Nation needs to be in full force today in NYC, Boston and around the country. Where's everyone watching the game in Boston?? Fours by the Garden?

[rayers]

How huge is today? How cool is it that the guys have battled so hard the last two nights to get this opportunity? This is basically a play-in game for UMass. Come on Brotherhood!

[69MG]

We will need everyone to contribute today as our guys looked a little gassed until there were 5 minutes left in the game. They seemed to get a second wind.
Trey and Put didn't play much last night so they should be fresh. I just hope DK has had enough tome to look at the tape from the last game and come up with a strategy to break the press and get some easy baskets. That seems to be the formula for beating VCU.
Win or lose, I'm extremely proud of the way we have played in Brooklyn. Let's play on Sunday!!

[utterlyoptimistic]

Unreal, I'm not going to be able to watch the game due to the annual in-law St. Paddy's party down in UConn territory. Not too happy. Hopefully we can pull off the win today so I can have something to brag about.

[Floyd]

utterly, didn't you say something about not feeling well today, (cough, cough). Maybe you need to stay home and lay on the couch, maybe around 4 or so?

[CrooksisRhyming]

I am absolutely fucking pumped for this game.

A couple of us will be at Game On probably around 3.

[PJ2015]

CBS Crew with Greg Gumbel, Greg Anthony, Seth Davis, and Doug Gottlieb just said UMass is in with a win over VCU !!! <==Chaz twitter triple exclamation points for good luck

We've invested so much energy into this season and it all comes down to this... Let's stay hot at the free throw line and win this game!

SURVIVE AND ADVANCE

[Zangzigger]

VCU opens at 7pt favorite in Vegas, up to -8.5 based on early money.

[inthescoop]

Does anyone know how much the tickets are and any chance I would get a student discount if I show my student ID?

I live about 15 minutes outside Manhattan so I feel like I should definitely go to the game even if its by myself, I would leave in about an hour. But I heard the tickets are 45 dollars? Is this true? I didn't go on a trip for spring break to save money, but damn 45 dollars for a college basketball game is ridiculous. Anyone know where I can buy tickets for cheap?

[OutlawPete]

Scoop definitely come over. I think tix start at $35. Probably $45 withTicketmaster fees. Barclays says they're still available at the door (whetr there's no fres). It's worth the money for this game.

[inthescoop]

Barclays is definitely the nicest arena in the world, but they need to chill out with that ticket pricing.

[OutlawPete]

The food is ridiculous. $7 for a tiny can of Red Bull. $5 for a soda the size of your hand. And yet we all buy it
