What time is the game?

2:30 PM ET

Austin Peay has the early lead, 30-23.

Liberty leads 45-40 at the half.

It's difficult to listen to the audio feed with the shrieking noise in the background.

Austin Peay with the lead again, 56-53.

Man our defense is just non existentent. I mean to call us a defense first team is a joke right now. Real dissappointing performance today. This group doesnt really have an identity right now. Also bell is right back to his old ways. Cant finish and fouls literally every other possession. Time to start developing newton more or look at preston. Its year 4 for bell counting a redshirt year and still unreliable.

What a sucky loss. Disappointed.

Myo obviously fouled too much today, but saying he can´t finish when he went 2-2 from the floor and 2-2 from the line in 9 minutes and is hitting almost 50% on the year doesn't mesh with the facts. I´m actually more concerned that Scottie only got 3 shots. That can't happen. Taylor is a beast, and we have always struggled with powerful, athletic players his size. The guy at Presby who always killed us before he transferred out comes to mind. Maybe Newton should play more. Not having a shot blocker was obviously a factor. As far as Preston is concerned, I can´t imagine us burning the redshirt at this point. I really hope the NCAA will look at doing something like they did for football with other sports. It´s the best rule change they have made since requiring helmets.

Very disappointing play....from the way it sounded on the cast. Not sure if anyone could watch it (I was listening to the webcast). Maybe it’s the Holiday blues for the guys....hope this is not the way it’s going to go for the conference schedule

We played better defence last year? I've been hoping coach was saving the tighter stuff for conference games?

I think I counted 18 layups made. That is the result of not moving your feet and/or not not rotating on defense . . . and not having a fly swatter around the rim.
