Not that the remaining games weren't already important but home court advantage throughout would be huge. We now control our destiny. What I nice turn of events.

I would be excited for our fans to have home court throughout. Having said that, with this team I'm not so sure it would be a huge advantage. It certainly didn't appear to be in our 2 games against Lipscomb. Defense travels.

I hope it's nothing too serious. North Florida is one team outside of Lipscomb that can cause major matchup problems for us.

I'm trying the radio link, but there is no game on. Just ESPN radio. What's the actual radio station in Lynchburg?

And their big guy Harcher will miss the entire game with a violation of team rules.

We lead 30-27 at the half. Georgie and Gumbs with 7 points each.

2nd half we look much more patient with better selection of shots against this zone defense. I also want to point out something. It took 9 and 1/2 minutes for us to get a foul call. That my friends is trash. This has been a poorly officiated game for the most part.

You have likely found it by now but it's 100.1. It's crazy how much they have moved around the last couple of seasons.

It’s been on 100.1 since January.

I love this team and where they are headed. That being said this one is going to hurt. Liberty being Liberty but they are trying hard to break the trend.

One the worst coached games from Ritchie. I don't know what the heck I just witnessed.

That's what happens when you lift your foot off the gas with 8:00 to go and try to cruz. It's squarely on the coach.

2 things stood out:
1. We didn't finish, which is OUT OF CHARACTER for this team.
2. Like the stetson game a few weeks back, we took a team lightly and played unfocused, but this time it came back to bite us in the butt.
However, unlike football losing a conference game this late in the season isn't the worst thing in the world. We still have atleast 2 home games at Vines during the tournament and we still have the talent to win the tournament out right without question.

Id like to say im surprised but im not
Also why is mcdowell inbounding and how in the world you can make that mistake is totally inexcusable. You give yourself no shot at all by throwing it out of bounds???!?
