GCU's 6'10" big man averaging 25 ppg just fouled out with almost 5 minutes left!

The last five minutes or so we have looked a lot more like ourselves.

We are +12 with Myo on the floor while Scottie is only +1 in essentially the same minutes.

That certainly helps (although he averages 15, not 25).

That GCU fan just picked his nose and ate it on national television. :lol:

I have a very very very short leash when it comes to missed free throws. Tonight has been frustrating to watch from the stripe. 16-26 at 60% is pathetic.

The epitome of Liberty’s efficiency:

The commentators are having to fill like ten minutes of air time because our games finish well under two hours.

In 21 minutes of reserve play, Baxter-Bell had 15 points and 4 rebounds, compared to James who only had two points.

Especially given they average 7100 a game in a 7000 seat arena. They have the best college basketball attendance in the country percentage wise.

I think he knew something was up by the look on his face and then slipping that helmet back on!

Yeah, he went pale :pale. Like he noticed he was on the screen. If it were a serious rival of ours I'd turn it into a GIF, but without built up malice towards GCU it just seems mean.

Maybe do it...keep it in the back pocket. After all, I have heard they are beating us pretty well in the online game. I wouldn't be surprised to see it on YouTube at some point.

GCU actually would be a natural rival in basketball, being that both schools vie for the "Largest Christian University in the World" title. Also, GCU fans really do love their basketball which would make it an exciting series.

Yes, but they (fans) are not going to travel here, and we (fans) are not going to travel there.
