I hope we play exceptionally well on Sunday. That's what it will take to beat them again at their place. This will be a tough win...

They will come out early and try to burry us with 3's before we know what hit us.

Our 3 point defense had best be working.

If we win, it's going make all those bracket projectors "look bad". Most have had Lipscomb in NCAA tourney as ASUN champion for 2 weeks.

It's one factor. Highly unlikely Lipscomb will shoot better from 3 than N Florida did last night, but we still found a way to win. Of course that involved getting them to turn it over 16 times, which is not likely to happen against the Bisons.

Can not wait for this game. It should be a very heated matchup and it seems like there will be a lot of Flames fans in attendance.

This is the best it gets at this level of D1 basketball. Should be a fun one and stressful, haha.

Good luck to y'all tomorrow. Two great matchups back-to-back on ESPN. Only our second shot at the dance since our move up to D-1. We'll have our hands full, you guys will too.

Have watched them several times on ESPN+. You have to hang with them the first 10-12 minutes. If you do you can beat them. They like to come out shooting 3’s and put you down 12-15 pts. As the game wears on their opponents tend to come back. Go Flames!

50 minutes to Nashville - It’s great to be playing for a championship.

Sitting here watching Radford in the Big South final and thinking about what happened last year. Would be tough to come up short again. Go Flames!

Newman was always better at drawing fouls.
