North Carolina Central - Pregame Discussion/Predictions

[1972Shocker]

The place will be rockin' !!!

Let's hope so. One thing that NCCU may not be real accustomed to is an atmosphere that Koch Arena and Shocker Fans are capable of bringing to bear. Of course, that sometimes inspires our opponents to play above their heads.

I eagerly await a variety of appropriate video responses from @WstateU:. And hopefully one of them has an Iggy Mandlebaum take.

I’m either showing my age or ignorance, but I had to search for “Iggy (Izzy) Manndelbaum” and then ‘Pow’, it hit me right between the eyes.

Only 102 tickets left for tomorrow's game, according to a tweet by goshockers. Sounds like it should be a packed house. Hope the energy level is high also!!!

I’m not trying to be a “Debbie Downer”, however there will be a lot of empty seats because the felines up north will be playing the toads down south.

If I was a feline fan I would be staying home also, however I would make sure I found someone that would use my tickets.

Just sayin’…

P.S. I expect the home crowd to be 'juiced' for the home opener… at least while the game is close.

Are there that many? I wouldn't think so.

For a game against North Carolina Central, I'd say that's not bad. What were our attendance numbers at the beginning of last year?

My post wasn't clear so I'll try again. Is there that many? I wouldn't think so.

I am a feline fan and grad, and I'll be in my Shocker seats tonite - that's why God made the DVR.

You feelin' a lil' gitup in your giddyup DTSB? Nothing like a 51 point win to open the season!

As long as our guys really are as talented as I hope, and can use it to their advantage, I think a close game right before a big game ahajnst VCU is exactly what we need.
