Will the Chaos Gods give us more today? #1 seed going down with the first set of game? All hail Gods of Chaos.

For two hours today we will be the only game on tv and have a chance to really make a splash as a program.

Great moments are born from great opportunity. And that's what you have here tonight, boys. That's what you've earned here tonight. One game. If we played 'em ten times, they might win nine. But not this game. Not tonight. Tonight, we skate with them. Tonight, we stay with them. And we shut them down because we can! Tonight, WE are the greatest hockey team in the world. You were born to be hockey players. Every one of you. And you were meant to be here tonight. This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great hockey team the Soviets have. Screw 'em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it.

Could be the meds and caffeine but I actually got goosebumps from that.


I understand what they are up against and it's house money. I'd like to see a hard fought game, but man, I don't remember the last time I was this excited/nervous for a basketball game.


You guys think the UVA game plays into the results of Bama Nova? Nova got a wake up call, but Bama has reason to believe it can win? Or wasn't going to matter anyway.

If we beat Nova. Talk about some destroyed brackets. It'd be awesome.

Could go either way. I don't think Nova was ever going to overlook a team with a lottery point guard and many big wins, so I would guess if it makes any difference it helps us.

Yea, Nova will be ready to play. It really will come down to us and whether Nova is getting easy looks and/or making shots.

If they play a clean game and shoot well we will have serious trouble sticking around, no matter how we play.

Hall and Smith will need to be game changers with their rebounding and post game.

John Petty drilled 5 straight 3s in warmups. Remember this is the same arena as the VT game, so he’s got a feel of how to shoot the ball here

I'm a ball of nerves. This game is just gravy at this point, but God do I want us to pull it out, or at the very least play well enough to win.

I want to lose by a lot or win. A close loss would be too painful.

F that. I don't want to close the season with an embarrassing loss and the negative energy that would come with that.
