I will be attending the game with my family tomorrow. The last time I saw the Flames was in in Norman against the Sooners (that was not a real good night). I'm excited to see this young team.

Mason has a 6'7" & 275 lb. power forward? Man, I wish Vince Redd could come back for Monday night's game in an LU (basketball) uniform.

I am looking forward to seeing you man.

Don't even bring up the Sooners name this evening, SumItUp. I'm still spitting mad.

You are going to love watching these kids play.

Sly you get to watch tomorrow don't you?

Nope ... we have practically every regional sports network in America except MASN.

Larranaga always seems to have a wide body or 2. They had a couple on their final 4 team.

I'll be watching ya Scar

DirecTV, baby.

Scar, we expect a FF shoutout. Don't give us that nonsense about the "higher ups" telling you not too.

Been looking forward to this game since they announced the schedule...should be an entertaining game

If we can keep playing hard on the defensive side it could get interesting

I'll try to sneak it in. Tell someone to put a sign up and we will put it on TV.

I will be at the game as well - my first time seeing them play in person - I plan to get out to a few games at the end of the season, and I've already put in to be off for the BSC tournament.

Referees:


Roger Ayers


Sean Casady


Steve Coleman

I hope they keep those whistles blowing if we start getting pushed around underneath like the Patriots are likely gameplanning.

Roger is one of the best in the business. He is near the top for ACC officials..and that's tough to do.

Oh, I know he's good. We just have fun messing with him.


Last year he came to the scorer's table and goes, "They really don't like me here do they?"

He looks a little like Tim Donaghy!

So much for Brolin not playing ... he was in the starting lineup.

LU jumps out to 5-0 start but back comes Mason to close the gap to 5-4.

Both teams are ice cold nearing midway point of first half with us tied at 8.

Seth on the drive puts us up by two.

Spencer for 3!

LU up 13-8

We're up 25-22 with 4:00 in the half. Kyle with 10 and Seth 7. We are out rebounding them.
