Ok, so we haven't played UTA today yet, but I figured why not go ahead and start the thread about our game against AP #22 Pittsburgh. Yes, they're undefeated, but here's their schedule:

11/15 CalPA W 71-58
11/17 Mt. St. Mary's W 77-55
11/19 at Duquesne W 61-56
11/21 at St. Bonaventure W 75-62
11/24 at Utah W 59-51
11/25 Boise St. W 71-70
11/29 at Akron W 74-55
12/01 Penn St. W 60-51
12/05 Robert Morris W 79-69
12/09 at Ohio W 77-69

And they play East Carolina today at 4:30. This team seems ripe for an upset IMHO, and if we can keep our turnovers down, make some free throws, I'm feeling good about our chances.

you are a big time kool-aid drinker Atrain...we will not win this game.

[thesportscritic]

we will be lucky if we are within 10 points of this team the way we have been playing lately.

[ATrain]

you are a big time kool-aid drinker Atrain...we will not win this game.

Only on the women's side...and football during the summer. Though Critic is right, the last 4 games we haven't exactly played our "A" game.

[Sly Fox]

I agree with Atrain that these Holiday Tourney games are terrific opportunities for upsets ... particularly on the womens side. If there ever were circumstances that could be distracting for college age girls (other than the basement at Fellinis) it would be Cancun. Perhaps this could be a signature victoryf or the selection committee.

We lost today by 4 to UTA. Looks like we will lose big. Real big!

[ATrain]

And after today's results against UTA-we don't have a chance against Pitt.

[ATrain]

Pitt beat ECU 70-53 today...*sigh*

[thesportscritic]

again we will be real lucky to be within 15 tomorrow.

[fsn32]

Pitt is in the same category as GW and I would break it down a little more but I used all my energy on the UTA thread.

Go Flames!

[thepostman]

I don't know if we have a shot at winning tomorrow or not...I don't see why not...I mean sure Pitt is better then the team we played today, but its not like Pitt is LSU or Maryland or some superpower, so i would dare say this will be another close one....

FSN....I wish I was in Cancun....until today I haven't put together in my head who you are for some reason...but now i know who you are, and I think you should've brought me along....after all GMTM isn't around....i'm just saying....

and if you don't know who this is I am sure you are sitting there confused....

[givemethemic]

haha, FSN wouldn't let you go with him...you couldn't hold his clip board...

[thepostman]

easy man....don't burst my bubble

[Stevev]

Is anyone out there following the freakin game. I am too afraid to.

[A.G.]

I'm still laughing over the "Bucko" remark. That is sooooo "Richie Cunningham."

[givemethemic]

down by 1 with a couple of mins to go...

[givemethemic]

we are on a 13-2 run... Lightfoot with the chance for a 3pt play we are up 25-24 with 1:22 to go in the first half

[givemethemic]

14-2 run Lighfoot makes the FT... jump ball flames with possesion with 1:00 to go up by 2

[givemethemic]

Flames up 26-24 at the half.....But I forgot that we will not win this game nor will we have a chance...feel free to take back any of the posts from the last 24 hours.....

[Stevev]

I am really shocked as to what has transpired so far. But it ain't over yet.

[ATrain]

GMTM-its not over till its over (see: UVA-we were on the right side of that one, VT, GW and UTA). How many times this season have we been up at halftime (by a little or a lot) and lost?

[Rocketfan]

Flames up 26-24 at the half.....But I forgot that we will not win this game nor will we have a chance...feel free to take back any of the posts from the last 24 hours.....

GMTM - we hold a two point lead after one half and are asking to take posts back.....have you been in the sun too long?

[Stevev]

Too much Cool Aide

[TIMSCAR20]

I think what GMTM is saying is that Critic was saying we shouldn't show up. For a team that shouldn't even show up, we are doing quite well, win lose or draw. I hope we can hang on and win this one.

[Stevev]

Oh my God!!!! LU leads by 7 with 9 minutes to go. Can we keep that lead?
