is there no post game extra for the road game?

Just got back from Bryce Jordan Center. Great game to say the least. That Penn State team will win some games, we just dominated and frustrated them. They were so frustrated.

Decent Mason turnout with a lot of Paulsen folks there. And his daughter sang the national anthem with 3 friends and was incredible. Best I've heard in a very long time.

Shoutout to Kier on the 11 rebound performance

 

[Falco]

Dixon got in the last minute of the first half after Relvao picked up his second foul (Jalen already had two). I've seen other people say Kam got in the game but I watched pretty closely the entire time and didn't see him in there.

I saw him and was surprised. I thought for a second Tamara got a new hair cut

"Penn State led 38-37 after a wild first half that featured 12 lead changes. But the Raiders took control starting with Livingston's 3-pointer that made it 42-40 early in the second. George Mason led the rest of the way, shot 50 percent and outscored Penn State 44-16 in the paint."

The "Raiders" - my alma mater is killing me tonight!

Maybe just maybe they scouted and game planned the wrong team????

Sort of like UConn not knowing who we were?

 

[GMUSig03]

Students are taking notice. I'm seeing undergrads tweeting left and right and undergrads and alum are texting me about it. One even said "time to hop back on the bandwagon so I can ridicule others for doing the same in a week"

Hahaha, saw the exact same thing on my FB feed right after the game from guys I usually only see at the homecoming tailgate

 

[GSII]

No fear in this team. Sure does feel like the old days again. Wow.

Greatest sports moment of my life..

You must regrettably be too young to remember Mason over Uconn in the regional final in 2006. That was the greatest live sports moment of my life, in the Verizon Center with about 18,000 other Mason fans.

Just watched on DVR with other Mason faithful. Directionaly I couldnt be happier with this program.

"WHO SAYS YOU HAVE TO BE TALL TO REBOUND?
What's more, Mason allows an offensive rebound on just 25 percent of its opponents possessions, and that solid number ranks the Patriots 40th nationally."

That's the Paulsen philosophy...guard the 3 point shot and don't give up offensive rebounds. He believes those are two of the biggest momentum swingers in the game.

It was a clinic tonight. I know that Penn St is also young, but we just took them apart in the second half. Anyone want to complain that a 1 year extension given to DP last year wasn't long enough!!

Maybe the AD knew what he was looking for when he found this guy. He is a winner. One team had a very good coach and the other didn't show up.

 

[MasonFanatic]

Man was that fun. I am still in shock. Woooo!

I was unfortunately still a high schooler who didn't even know Mason existed.. much has changed

Doc Nix,

If you're reading this, sign up Molly Paulsen for the Green Machine - https://twitter.com/TURNTupTURT/status/806694465989644288.

Paulsen never used a timeout all game either.

Announcers kept giving Moore a lot of credit, I respect that.

Someone, somewhere won some money off this game tonight, and it wasn't me.

 

[gmutom]

Moore's tenacity on the boards is all heart, and you can tell it's contagious with the rest of the team -- especially the freshmen. To paraphrase Tom Cruises's line as Lt. Kaffee to Lance Corp. Dawson at the end of A Few Good Men, "You don't have to wear a "C" on your jersey to have leadership."

Relvao's 7'4" wingspan has done a great job changing player's shots, and sometimes even blocking them. If only he can develop an offensive game!
