I’m trying to decide if I can make it to this one. It’s tempting.

This game will give us a good benchmark on how far we have come. I feel like if we belong on the court with this caliber of team. If we play our game and our shooting continues to come around we should be in this to the end. Frankly, I am expecting us to win at least one of these early games (Vandy, Alabama, Georgetown, UCLA). This may be our best shot and it comes first. Excited to see it. Let's come ready to play!

I think bama and gtown are easier games. This one and ucla are real tough.

For for those with Dish, this game will be televised on the SEC channel. And McCracken is already there!

Vandy has scored a lot of points, but have given up a lot also. Defense may decide this one.

I think the VA Tech exhibition showed the fan base we can not only compete but stand toe to toe with the big boys of college basketball. VA Tech is a legit top 25 team and we led at halftime.

Here in Nashville for game. If vandy scores in the 60's and if Scottie dominates the offensive glass ( i think he will tonight ), Liberty walks with an SEC win.

I originally saw the game listed on SEC alternate on dish. But today it's gone. The Vanderbuilt website says it has to be streamed on SECplus or espn. If anyone does indeed see it on dish, let me know the channel #. Thanks!!

Tied at 20 early. The Vanderbilt website shows the LU roster, but the Alcorn State logo.

You can stream the game here for FREE. LU is leading 25-23 with 3-balls, a McGhee dunk, and Princeton-style back door baskets.

Missing a lot of open threes but good overall game. Forcing a lot of turnovers.

At the half, we were 4-16 from the 3-point line, mostly after Scotty James went to the bench in foul trouble.

Good defense going on, but the offense could use some consistency.

You've got to think our shots will start falling and if they do we might pull this out! Fun to be in games like this but better to win!

8 min to go and we are a frigid 38% shooting and 25% from 3.

Just not making enough shots to beat a team like this.

This is unfortunate. We played really well and the score won't reflect it. We just couldn't find the bottom of the net. smh Long season. Those shots will start falling.

we just seemed to die around the 10 min mark against vt and vandy. Vandy is good. I think potentially top 25. That being said we still arent there yet. I thought we may be ready to challenge a team like this but it looks further away than i hoped.
Good news is this is the best or second best team we will play i do believe.

Had the opening to get back in it. Miss both free throws and turn the ball over after technical. Brutal.
