This will be the last apearance for Birmingham Southern in the Big South Tourney. Liberty leads the season series 2-0 and leads the all-time series 13-0. Looking at the game Notes online, with everything that has happened with Roli-Ann, you still have to feel confident in the bench that the will be able to carry the load and be productive. Should be a fantastic game.

Anybody driving down for the tournament in Asheville?

I hope we pull this one out, BSC has given us fits all year.

I really hope I'm wrong about this tourny....I just dont have a good feeling at all this year though....

i agree with you.

Something went terribly wrong with this team earlier in the year after they had all those great games against Virginia, VT, and GWU. Mind you, they lost two, but they were competitive until the final minutes.

I went and saw them at the Maryland tournament, and it was the worst I had ever seen them play. We need that team that beat UVA and took VT head on.

I have faith however they can become that team. It may take alot of work, but Green can get it done.

I don't think you are.

NJ boy is right- its been downhill all the way from the beginning of the year.

And, dare I say this ( I will deny it later) but SportsCritic was right.

not the whole SCAR thing (and lets NOT revisit THAT little nightmare ), but his overall pessamism

PS:

GO LADY FLAMES !!

not expecting anything at all. i hope the ladies show up!

[Fumblerooskies]

For all the folks that are around here that rode the RD wagon in the face of sub-par performances...
...and to be so pessimistic about a team's chances that has not lost a tournament game since SuperJon was playing with his Ninja Turtle figurines...is downright unbelievable. Until they lose, they are still 10-time defending champs.

[bigsmooth]

easy there rooksie. this team has not been very good at all, but we are still supporting them, but it is ok to think that we will not go all the way. if we do...great, but it is what it is...we are not a very good team right now. the good thing is we are 0-0 now.

that was bad but that incident is over and have moved on. I guess UVA was the only high point of the season.

If Fumble is willing to make a friendly wager about us winning our 11th conference championship, we all may be able to pay for our Spring Break vacations in a few days--on his nickle.

My perception is that many folks have given up on them. Either that IS the case...
...or everyone is simply going in with NO expectations so a championship would be a pleasant suprise, as opposed to going in with high hopes and having them dashed.

[NJLibertyboy]

And I would say it's the later. Could this team win? Absolutely. Would it be sort of a surprise? Yes.

Wagering is against the Liberty Way...
...and I am certain there is something about it in the faculty handbook.

[bigsmooth]

i think it is a little bit of both IMO.

[Fumblerooskies]

OK...
...I can buy that. And can understand fully.

[Cider Jim]

Darn, I guess I'll have to pay for my own Spring Break--Fumble's not biting on the offer.

good stuff, ask HAIZE

Um, Winthrop leads High Point 53-47 with 47.4 seconds left, but High Point just got HOSED on a call. Rodd scores a bucket a good second after the shot clock goes out, and the refs give it to her. And she gets the and-one.

Ayonna Thompson drills a 3 from about 25 feet for HPU with 39.9 left ... Winthrop 53-50.
