tOfficial Opening Night Thread

Oh yeah no doubt they'll be the favorites in the swac. They've always been a pretty good transfer destination. Jones will be able to do that during his entire tenure there would be my guess. Not surprised those LSU guys transferred there.

Also, I always love their OOC. lol. No home games basically.

Yea haha, looks like the last time they played a home OOC game was in 2014.

Stat Lines of the night -

Chris Clemons for Campbell 44 points 8 Rebounds 4 Assists 5 Steals in an OT win over UNC-Wilmington. Good start for a guy whos averaged 24 & 25 PPG the last 2 seasons.

7' Western Michigan center Seth Dugan with 32 Points 22 Rebounds 6 Assists against Detroit.

Ethan Happ for Wisconsin put up a triple double (be it against Coppin State) 10/11/12 with 4 blocks as well.

Man, as much as I hate Duke, this team is gonna be fun to watch.

Sorry I haven't posted since the game last night. I was admitted in the hospital suffering from an 8-hour erection!

 

[Payton]

Destroying the Gators is never NOT fun...

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Give me Barrett over Zion all day.

Zion might look like Oliver Miller once he reaches 30.

Cincinnati is a solid 4-28 in the first half.

Broome is 1-8 from the field and he is still the only guy I want with the ball

 

[osubuckeye89]

Love the tenacity from this team out of the gate. Offense is gonna take time to get there all the way but a lot to like from that first half.

Theyve taken a good amount of awful forced shots. I thought our offense would be the one looking that bad.

 

[osubuckeye89]

These refs are a friggin joke in this game.

Goofy gm

Apparently Dan Dakich thinks only “rich people” can afford first row tickets to Cincinnati games.

 

[osubuckeye89]

Encouraging road win to start the year for a mostly inexperienced team. Im buying what Holtmann is selling and apparently the players are as well.

This isnt the first time hes gone off on those goofy "rich people in the front row" ramblings. I can specifically recall a Ohio State Michigan State game a few years ago where he said similar multiple times. Pondering why the "rich people" up front never stand up.

It seems to be trending that way which is cool with me. And yeah TCU needing a late run to be Bakersfield is pretty surprising.

Really nothing of note on the slate tonight. There are some good games on Friday, however.
