Game 1: GMU (0-0) at #15 Auburn (0-0) on Monday, November 7, at 8:00 PM.

[sleeperpick]

You act like we're the favored team here. If we beat Auburn on the road, we should read A LOT into it.

This is a big, talented, seasoned, deep team that has one of the best coaches in college basketball. Ethically flexible, but one of the best. They are loaded with 4 & 5-star recruits, as well as transfers who blew-up at smaller schools and if half of them are sick, the other half are still awfully f'n good too.

These people hype up our bleh schedule but then want us to discount beating the only amazing team on it because one of their big men has a sore ankle? What a fan base. If we win today it will be a miracle and should absolutely be celebrated.

We also shouldn’t read too much into beating an injury depleted P5. We did that once with UVA and I don’t think I have to remind you what the rest of the season was like after that…

Oh my goodness - when can we ever have fun here anymore? Everything has to be hosed down with the water of cynicism and coital frustration. I swear you would go on a trip to Vegas and spend most of your time reading a study on STDs in hotels.

Come on man!

Auburn coach Bruce Pearl says he will be without Chance Westry tonight in a dangerous game against George Mason. Westry still recovering from knee surgery, Pearl hoping to get him back in a week or so.

Is this an announced lineup? Missing two of their best players if so

A new early season record set for cyncism...Before 1 minute has even been played!

When pointsbet finally put up the line this morning, I got in at Mason +12.5. I just checked it again, it has now moved to Mason +9.5.

No, not official. It's from here:

https://auburnwire.usatoday.com/lists/auburn-basketball-tv-channel-george-mason-season-opener/

And def. take it w/a grain of salt, they have Ojiako as a projected starter for us.

Jaylin Williams has been dealing w/migraines. Johni Broome has a nicked up ankle. Allen Flannigan has had the flu bug. So who knows, any of those could play, or Pearl could hold back for the regular season.

I'm so confused by this scouting report. Can the second 6-10 guy not dunk? If so, WTF is wrong with him?

And Mason doesn't really have a PG in that lineup either, LOL.

If we roll out that starting lineup, I'd be scratching my head, although it looks like they got the lineup from the game notes Mason put out.

Not cynicism, healthy skepticism.

 

[Quentin Daniels]

Not sure about the healthy part, but def. skepticism.

 

[mkaufman1]

Not sure about the healthy part, but def. skepticism.

I already declared us National Title contenders back in like July so...

 

[Quentin Daniels]

I said skepticism, not delusion.

Big difference.
