We need to smoke their boots like we did Winthrop the other night.

BigSouthSports.com has their conference record as 7-4.

This is important because they currently rank 4th, and we are 5th. Gardner Webb has a similar record, but we would win the tie break if season ended today.


The top 5 teams do not have to participate in the play in games on Thursday. Winning this game could be the difference of having to win 4 games in 4 days, and only winning 3 games in 3 days.

Gosh we just played High Point. But hopefully we can beat them again.

There are few things better than seeing Scott Cherry lose a basketball game.

I'm all for beating them but surely we can find something better to smoke

This game will be a key to whether we finish in the top 3 or top 5. A win is massive.

Y'all have to shoot the three well like we did the other night. Brown dropped 32 and 13 on us and we still won it.

This will be a tougher game on the road but McKay is confident that our defense will travel. The belief is contagious.

Hoping we can keep the ball a rolling. The buzz around the program is starting to pick up. I had a co-worker who is a gigantic Virginia fan come up to me and compliment the buzz around the team and the progress already. He was very impressed in the development of such a young team. He said he watched the Winthrop game and couldn't believe that was liberty. Hopefully were seeing the rise of an eventual min-major powerhouse. I may have taken a sip of the kool-aid. I feel much like kylo ren in my pull to the light side.

OMG, this may be the worst Big South Video feed I've ever seen. Horrible audio and I feel like I am watching the picture through a tube. No wide angles at all!!

and I thought Presbyterian was bad.

Next time any of you complain about LSFN, remember, you could be watching this.

Don't forget the crack announcers..... "The Flames will need Kermit to hit the three if they are going to get back into this one."

LU was down by 1 point at the time!

That Kermit guy is small, but he has serious hops.

Love the camera work.....I never knew you had to take a Dramamine to watch a ball game.

+1

The Millis Center is a nice building, but on the sides, is really no larger than the BucDome at CSU, they have a bunch of their seating in the balcony behind the basket. Explains the bad camera angles a bit.

Their play by play man sounds just like the policeman's voice on South Park.

Ref, calling foul on Liberty with every High Point Possession it seems.

Cherry getting all the calls. Hard for you guys to play 5 against 8 and win.

I had a concussion two months ago and noticed I was getting a headache from watching. Glad it wasn't just me

YES!!!!

Thank goodness we won. If I'd watched that mess of a broadcast and we lost things would not be good right now.
