Game 27: @ La Salle

Post by **MikeUMA** » Wed Feb 25, 2009 9:59 pm

Somehow we have to sweep up our pride and get on the bus for La Salle. The Explorers are currently 14-12, and 5-7 in the league. Their last game was just like ours: a home loss to Duquesne.

If we have any bright spot, it's that La Salle has lost their last 3 home games, and is only 2-5 in their last 7.

We also owe 'em some payback for the home loss they gave us a month ago.

La Salle plays tomorrow night at Temple, 7pm start.

CBS College Sports will air our game, Sunday at 5. More later.

Ratings are expected to be through the roof, with particular interest coming from the Philly and Greater Boston media markets. Rumor has it, regular CBS is considering picking up the game for regional coverage.

Channelsurfing.net has the game listed. Don't know if it will be blocked because I think that CSTV is carying it.

It shouldn't be blocked. They'll pick up the CSTV feed. It will be interesting watching a game with neutral commentators for once.

welcome to the board goodtymes, glad to see you finally came to your senses

as for La Salle, if (and a big if) UMass somehow pulls this out, we'll be tied for 9th in the A10 standings at 6-8, and head to head 1-1. i know the season isnt over, but what is the next tiebreaker after head to head record?
