Agreed. This one is creepy. Especially the Margaret Hamilton nose.

It's pretty exciting feeling like Mason can and should win every game..instead the 50/50 feeling..

I’ll be attending with my son… his first game in a few years. Anyone have good tickets/passes they can’t use?

If you can't scoop up anyones tickets, your best bet is to get a couple $10 GA tickets. Students aren't back yet so you can sit behind either side of the hoop. There's been tons of families sitting in those sections the past few games. Those sections aren't full either so you can literally be in the first few rows from the court if you get there early enough.

Buy anywhere and then just sit anywhere. The Seat Nazi Usher is gone from 115/116, in fact, we've had no usher at all of late. Lots of prime seats can always be found there.

Men's Basketball Hosts Saint Louis on DMV Day Saturday - George Mason University Athletics

The George Mason University men's basketball team (12-2, 1-0) hosts Saint Louis (7-7, 0-1) for its A-10 home opener on Saturday afternoon inside EagleBank Arena.

gomason.com

"• The Patriots are 12-2 to begin the season and are 66th in the NCAA NET rankings. That's Mason's all-time best NET ranking at this point in the season.

• With a win on Saturday, George Mason would improve to 13-2 and match the best start in program history (1983-84). The Patriots tallied 11 non-conference wins this season for just the second time in the past 40 campaigns."

"• Mason held the Explorers to just 21.4 percent shooting (6-28) in the second half and 37.7 percent (23-61) overall. The Patriots have yet to allow an opponent to shoot 50 percent from the floor over 14 games. That's the longest stretch for a Mason team to begin a season since 2011-12.

• The Patriots feature one of the most potent defenses in the country. Mason ranks fifth nationally in 2pt FG defense (.414), ninth in overall FG defense (.378) and 57th in scoring defense (65.4). The Patriots allow 0.999 points/possession (80th).

• Sophomore Keyshawn Hall led Mason at La Salle with game highs in points (27, 10-17 FG) and rebounds (13) to go along with three assist. It marked his third 25+ point game of the year. Hall ranks fifth nationally in defensive rebounds/game (8.5) and seventh in double-doubles (8). He leads the A-10 in both of those categories."

"• The Patriots shot 53.8 percent from 3 (7-13) vs. the Explorers and now rank third the A-10 and 33rd nationally in 3pt FG pct (.378). Mason also now ranks 43rd in overall FG percentage (.482). The Patriots have shot 50+ percent in three of the past four games.

• The Green & Gold are a season-best 88th in the KenPom rankings. That's the program's highest ranking in the metric since November 2013."

Our pal is gone?!?! I hope that guy didn't croak but he took the job way too seriously. I always made it a point to just walk in from the other side so that my ticket didn't get a 30 second inspection and I avoided a lecture like it was the first time I have ever been to EBA.

They moved him over two sections.

You'll have to keep me posted if they move him back for any future games. Maybe for once I can walk in for Homecoming and not have my ticket inspected like I'm going through TSA.

New game thread image up! I call this one "Malik dunks on SLU player missing a finger".

Here's the outtakes, they are gloriously bad:

AI couldn't create a convincing gremlin looking fellow I suppose.

The second and third ones...very homoerotic.

The blonde in the final thumbnail is cute though.

I thought #2 was just hilarious, and #3 was more of a "Come here and let me check your teeth while I dunk this ball!", but I can see your point.

Here's the big version of the final pick:

"GMAS"

"GMAS"

Was just going to comment on that. LOL Maybe that can be fixed.

I can remember the poster who trolled most of us by using "GMas" all the time, which just irked me to no end. Fingernails on a chalkboard aversive. One of the rare posters I ever blocked.

Billyken boards preview of the game. Yes I see spelled that correctly. I think it sounds better.
