Game 13: Prairie View A&M University, Thursday, December 22nd, NOON, NO TV

[GMUgemini]

Dixon outscored Jenkins. Should we think about starting Danny?

Dixon is this team's Chris Fleming...

Jenkins only took two shots. They were doing a pretty good job in the low post defensively...would have liked to have seen him maybe try to get a couple of mid-range shots in...overall, he didn't have a great game today.

Out-rebounded them 60-28. Love how this team makes it their mission to hit the glass hard.

It's good to see the coach and players be loose and have fun in the postgame. The highlight from Coach Paulsen: on Marquise Moore's technique getting the rebounds "truthfully, he's had to box me out in practice. And when you have to go against an athlete of that caliber every day, it's -- so that's probably what he meant to say."

Wow, these noon starts are amazing. I worked out, had nothing but a banana for breakfast, drank five beers in the Patriot Club and heard we won a basketball game.. Woohoo!

60-28 rebounding edge is crazy

With all due respect to Marquise and Otis who made some exciting plays in the 75-59 victory, the most exciting athlete on the court this afternoon was Geronimo. BTW, it was nice to see Coach Paulsen send the players into the stands after the game to shake hands with all of the kids.

No way to watch a replay of the game? You pay all this money for A10 network and they dont give you an option to replay games when you didnt know it was a 12pm start.

edit: sorry for being the only one always complaining about the A-10 network...

I know we have to plan around finals and Christmas, but having this 1 game between Dec 12th and 30th is brutal. Its too bad we couldn't get a game next Tuesday so we didn't have another long break before hosting vcu.

Did anyone else notice the Duke Edsall sighting? That guy used to ref every big ACC game many years ago and then just disappeared. Kind of sad to see he's been reduced to glorified scrimmages like today's game.

That is actually good to see. Even in the Coach L years when we would win a game like this - we would win by a much smaller margin and not be that far ahead of our opponent on stats.

It is nice to see us really beat someone we should really beat.

Still not sure why Abram is so far in the dog house. It has to be his passing, but man I love his shot.

Maybe it's the fact he never passes the ball?

Hey, he had a pretty nice assist today! That's progress.

That was a nice busted play to end the half.

Two years ago we'd of dribbled it off our foot and the other team would pick it up and go down for 2.

That is classy. From a pure PR standpoint, you just can't buy that. Positives all the way around.
