I hate VMI. They moan and groan whining saying that their campus life is so rigorous, having to run, dorms like prisons, etc. They brag about it when they win in anything (rarely) and use it as an excuse when they lose (a bunch). If it is such a burden, why don't they drop down to D-2 or NAIA ball then?

I never was a Falwell fan, watching any minister go down the water-slide of a fraud will do that to you, BUT, he built a darned good school from scratch, and wanted a top-flight athletic program in the process. You have to respect that. Likewise, it makes it quite easy to root for you guys to win the tourney and go to the dance.

Always amazes how everyone says such good things about us until we start winning.

None of us want to be in a conference with Gardner-Webb, either; maybe you'll be happier to read that.

“I’m pleased with the way they played. Credit Coach (Daniel) Willis for a very sound game plan. We just saw that the majority of their scoring was from three guys, and we said that we are going to do something a little bit different. Desperate people do desperate things. We hadn’t played very well, so we said something will change up, and it did.”

Gotta love this quote from Duggar.

Don't you usually save your best for last maybe he thought that the last game was the elimination round? Or perhaps, he's got something even better in store for us

Or maybe he just figures it's gonna work the same way second time around

I have a billion things to do but can't focus. Wish I could be there in person!

[DLP_Man]

This Waiting is killing me....least I get off at 5 today and if we win will stay at Wild Wings to root on UNCA! Definitely will be a good game between Us and VMI.

Good luck tonight.

All the bench players have to be ready to score when they have the shot. I think we all know exactly what VMI will do in trying to shut down Seth, Anthony and Kyle. I'm still nervous. We have to play better defense than we have played all year. VMI is a great team and either VMI or Liberty would be great representatives of the Big South in the big dance.

30mins till tip. Lets go LU!!!

[TheLouder]

Good luck tonight.

you too.

[Ed Dantes]

Let me hear you! Let's go flames!!!

[absturgill]

GO Liberty. Beat VMI

Off to a 5-0 start on a 3 by Smitty and a duece by Kyle. Spencer and Jesse both starting along with Seth, Kyle and Smitty.

I really like that lineup to start off a game

[olldflame]

Chavis holmes makes 2 FT to cut it to 5-2. Seth misses a 3.

[Kolzilla41]

Sanders reverse layup

7-2 LU

[Kolzilla41]

LU gets the ball back, Sanders lays it in 9-2 LU

[olldflame]

Jesse scores inside. 7-2. Chavis misses. JE takes forever to describe the scramble for the ball, but we get it.

Bell answers

7-4 LU
