UNT will end up being the 2nd or 3rd best non con team on our schedule. We will have to play our most complete game of the season to win. Limit turnovers, close out the shooters and share the basketball. I have no doubt IB will have prepared the right scouting report for the game, the question always is whether we can execute it?

Ooof, those are some pretty tight odds. This could be a nail biter.

Surprised it’s that high.

Surprised it’s that high.

Seems like all of their wins are either home or neutral games. Maybe it's our home court advantage giving us the boost?

I said it and stand by it...I love me some Porter, but he is NO offensive threat(at least so far) while Perry MAKES the other team guard him. It's not hate on Craig....it's respect for Perry.

Following our discussion the other day on Perry's abilities, it was surprising to me that when Taylor Eldridge's UNT starting 5 was printed in his article in the paper, Perry wasn't listed as one of the starters. While Perry has had some games where he didn't score (against KU and another team he had 20+) very much, he is averaging 12 ppg, but their other two smaller guards listed were both averaging 8;9 and 4.4 ppg. That could be the danger to playing UNT. They have multiple players that can score. I hope we can play with them today. Go Shox.

We definitely need to avoid going into one or two of our recent long scoring droughts or we could very well lose this one.

FINALLY GOT OUR TICKETS GIVEN AWAY!!!!!!!!!

I have a single up high (row 26 kind of behind the bench area) and 2 great tickets I happened across if anyone is interested. No charge.

PM if interested.

Home court advantage?

[Singeril]

Headed to a game in Koch for the first time since before Covid. So glad one of my sons is in town and can join me. Should be fun....well, as much fun as a defensive battle can be. Go Shocks!

I'm taking these to the game with me. I'll check here just before game time as I will be late arriving, but if you want to go, I'll meet you at CKA if you'll PM me meeting details. I'll check here again about 10 minutes prior to tip.
