They are having a very good season. This would be our best win of the year if we can pull it out.

Agree. This will be a tough game, but I would say that we have a good chance to get a victory if we can shoot well from outside.

This is a much tougher task than W&M!

Will be at the game! Hoping to get this W! They definitely look much more tough than W&M.

My employer played these guys earlier in the season. There was a malfunction with the scoreboard or scoring(something like that) during the game so Hampton was awarded two extra points and apparently noone was counting. That turned out to be the difference in the game and my employer while a middle of the road CAA team could not have handled W&M like We did. GSU also started 3 freshman that game. I think this is a W. close but a W none the less.

This is in BJ's backyard; I'm surprised that he hasn't invited the FlameFans for a sleep over. 8)

Hampton hasn't played a very tough schedule though. We'll see. Obviously, this will be close, and it will be a good win for us.

A ticket office representative (me) will be travelling to the game tomorrow, however, we don't have any tickets to sell and it seems like Hampton has already stopped selling their tickets through Ticketmaster Online. I doubt it is because their sold out, as they had only 759 at their Towson game, but I'll make a phone call in the AM and see what the scoop is.

If you request to be near the Liberty section, our seats are located in Sections B1 and B2. If they don't have any available near us, I believe they have General Admission seating in the upper level.

Does Hampton have a message board?

Not that I am aware of as of fairly recently. Much like the CAA schools, most of their fans tend to congregate on conference message boards. There are a few in the MEAC but this is the most popular:

I had planned on going, but my daughter was a week and a day over her due date, so I am currently in the hospital. I guess that's a decent absence excuse.

Praying for you, brother. I think the team can operate without your presence ... just this once.
