  1. Why do they have that huge arena in Greensboro? Just for special events like this? I know UNC-G doesn't draw that many fans. Is it just more Tobacco Road extravagance?Butler came close to beating LSU. I wasn't sure who to root for. On one hand I want the mid-majors to beat the BCS but I also don't want them to be more successful than us since they're the ones we're generally recruiting against
  2. I don't know how good they are but it would give us a game under our belt before IU. I think we'll probably open with an FCS team at home most years from now on.
  3. Hopefully it's a ploy and Coach Few & the Zags are falling for it
  4. He'll soon have the record for MAC wins. He already has the record for most surgeries in a year by a D1 coach. Bobby Bowden and Joe Pa are in his sights ! Go Charlie !!
  5. Who's your provider? I think Verizon offers that type of service (for a fee)...I would imagine others do as well.
  6. Me too but I think that may have been a fraternity pledge. I do remember two things that annoyed me that year. In a team capsule they pointed out that Holmes was the shortest starting center in the tournament (6'3") and asked whats a Zip? (and answered - Akron's chances of winning the tournament? Number of points they'll score?) so I was glad the Zips put forth an excellent effort.One of the publications also remarked that Holmes as the starting center was shorter than our team mascot. But hey, he played big. I had recently started a new job and couldn't very well be taking time off already. A fellow UA alum brought in a radio to work so we listened there. I would bet lots of money after this tourney is over that it won't take another 23 years (2032 AD :blink: ) to get back to the big dance.
  7. I didn't know Tim Russert went to John Carroll and law school at CSU.I have lost respect for Cornell (Olberman).A lot of those people are looking old.
  8. With plenty of ankle tape and ibuprofen, I think he'll be fine on Thursday.
  9. Dam-bro I sure hope CBS announcers can pronounce a 't'."finessefully", KD? "Midwest style of basketball"...I guess the line is only crossed if there's an intentional attempt to injure someone(?) (Dingletary)
  10. They should still show the Zips game on the jumbotron during the HS game
  11. You might want to put in a bid on Priceline.com. You would have to plan on leaving Wednesday since you can't choose the flight time and they may give you a late-arriving flight but you might save a lot over published fares, given the short notice for travel planning.I don't know if there's any chance UA would charter a plane for fans? I'm sure other schools have done it for the tourney (?)
  12. "They were taking away our easy shots and a lot of us are good at taking easy pull-ups," Betts said. "They just took it away from us." Rodney Pierce, the team's leading scorer, was 1 for 9 from the field and finished with just four points. "They pretty much slowed everything down," Pierce said. "In our offense, the ball has to keep moving. Everything has to be moving at once. They slowed us down and took us out of rhythm."
  13. http://collegebasketball.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=924107Yahoo Sports has us as the weakest 13 seed with the 4 seeds being Syracuse, Florida State, Washington and Gonzaga. I would not want to play FSU again as they would have revenge on their mind. I would love to have a crack at Gonzaga.
  14. Miller's career-high 27 kept them close in the 2nd half; otherwise we controlled the stats. Poor Humpty has to sit and watch.
  15. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted
  16. The WKNR internet broadcast is about a full minute behind the ESPN gamecast.
  17. Bulls make the final. Boudreau and Pierce are the high scorers v. BSU.Looks like the final will be on ESPN2 at 8pm.
  18. March Madness starts early. And to think some Zips fans wanted a 1st round bye and miss all this excitement
  19. "That wasn't even a good shot, except for the fact that it went in". Good call, Frenchy
  20. http://www.sportsradio1350.com/main.htmlHit Listen Live(I had to use IE, not firefox)
  21. Kinda silly to schedule all the games 2 hours apart. It's barely enough time to finish one game, let alone warmups before the next, and never mind the possibility of OT.
  22. What's going on with the start time? ESPN had it moved to 7pm, now 7:30...

  24. Zippy and the Linharts RULE !!
  25. No way should a 7-footer average less than a bucket per "quarter", freshman or not. Surely to goodness KD can coach better than that. I will be very disappointed if Z only averages 5 ppg regardless of his other stats.
