kreed5120 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 Air Force comes into this showdown 5-0 on the season. They look to have size at the guard position, but are really undersized in the frontcourt. They only have 3 players over 6'5 that receive 10 minutes per game or more. Those guys are forwards Luvelle Scottie & Ryan Manning who are listed at 6'6 and Frank Toohey whose listed as their C and comes in at 6'7. They average just a tick under 22 3PA per game and as a team have hit 43.7% of those. This looks like a matchup that we will need Big Dog to impose his will. We will also need our guards to play tight defense and not leave room for their shooters to hoist 3's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoZips88 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 I emailed the tournament and received the following reply ... "Unfortunately, we do not have any live video streams for this years tournament since it's our first year. Some teams do have radio broadcasts though that they may be streaming through their website. Thanks and have a great thanksgiving! Jonathan Sykes Event Manager Savannah Sports Council" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 (edited) smh. Its darn near 2017. How is there not some form of livestream for every D1 football/basketball game. Edited November 25, 2016 by LZIp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted November 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Yeah, I'm not going to sit around listening to the radio for 2 hours. What is this the 1930s? What a joke there isn't some sort of video feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I know why I wasn't thrilled that we entered this tournament in the first place. Although, without the tournament, I can only assume that we might have a home game this weekend against SE Oklahoma or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z.I.P. Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 (edited) Really looking forward to the gamecast of today's game. I'm torn, as this is the first meeting ever between my undergrad alma mater, and my ex-military force and employer. Oh, Hell, Go Zips! The Falcons' American football team is beating Boise State, so that's enough for one day. Also, back to the subject of our 2/3, Jimond Ivey. Hope he can take the court this p.m! Do you know that Jimond's mother and father have 7 children, every one a male? I calculated the odds of that at about 126-1. Edited November 25, 2016 by Z.I.P.
