Mean Green back in front.  This really does feel like the kind of game that might go OT.

[Green Lantern]

Sucks to say but Mo’s been hurting us on this road swing. He’s just not in rhythm.

i thought it was simmons?

[Salsa_Verde]

Hamlet wants to be the man and he’s making the shots to prove it. 

[Green Lantern]

Gotta give Mo his props for passing on the 3 ball and a big drive to the bucket. Gets both FT’s.

Youre right...

[Green Lantern]

Geu with a massive offensive board there. Great box out. Clutch.

[Salsa_Verde]

Big rebound after the barely missed shot by Hamlet 

[Pavlovs Eagle]

Hammy!

[Green Lantern]

That was a really bad foul in that situation. Gotta be smarter than that.

[emmitt01]

Dumb foul by Geu.  Up 6 you don’t risk the and 1.

[Green Lantern]

Great team win on the road!

Final

[Pavlovs Eagle]

Good game, they don't feel as overwhelmingly dominant as some of the initial games.  Still a great basketball team.

There’s a lot of tape out there on us by now.  

[Felozano]

Great win!  Started slow, but grinded it out on the road. Hamlet and Geu had some huge plays late. Free throws sealed it. GMG!

[bstnsportsfan3]

clinched a spot in the top pod. also first cusa team to 10 conference wins

Yes second time through is always harder.  Love the fortitude to play through it.  Last years team didn’t know how to do that like they do this year. 

[bstnsportsfan3]

This team drives and gets to the line to close games.. that will take them far

I know Rice smoked them on Thursday but this is a capable UAB team. They had a good non-conference and beat WKU by double digits in Birmingham. Not our biggest resume boosting win of the year, but this isn’t a court where anyone in our conference would expect a dominating win. But to your point, hopefully we get back to pulling away from teams at home this week.
