Game 7: AT James Madison University, Wednesday, November 29th, 7 PM, (CAA.TV)

[psyclone]

Mason favored from 1 (kenpom) to 2 (rpiforecast). VegasInsider opened as a 2 pt favorite and now it's 1.5.

With a much needed week of rest and films, it would be nice to have a good showing tonight.

As bad as JMU is, we could easily lose this game not because of talent or coaching, but just plain youth and short roster. Team needs to have the same motivation as if they are playing a top P5 school otherwise ...... yikes!

At least our managers won their game:

Seriously, I don't think there is any game this year we don't have a chance of losing (or winning for that matter).

Mason will lose every game from here on out because of not having Relvao. Book it.

This game really makes me miss the CAAZone days, and the program in general before PH dismantled it. This does not feel ANYTHING like we're about to play JMU tonight! CAA 2004-2011 were great times in my life. Feeling nostalgic.

The guys come out rusty and with a typical bad first half performance. Improve in the second half and barely hang on at the end.
GMU 68
JMU 62

I hear ya, but I'll give you a silver lining - we now get excited to play vcu, Dayton, URI, etc. instead of JMU

Absolutely but it's different. The Zone was a crazy, but wonderful place. I'm thrilled about where I believe DP has us heading. Last year would have been considered a successful year even under Coach L, we have exciting young players a la Hancock, veterans playing like seniors who still have a year of eligibility a la Campbell and Thomas, and much better competition to get hyped about. But we were a weird disfunctional CAA family that really solidified during the brief hey day of the conference and I do miss that sometimes.

Part of it is that I've moved away, life has changed (family, new job experiences, etc), and I miss being an "insider," chilling in the gold room, and the family atmosphere the coach L era had. But part of it is just missing T Mac and Razor and Johnny Rifle and picture threads!

Trump just tweeted that he knows the real reason Virginia voted for a Democratic Governor so overwhelmingly:

Guy on the JMU boards claims he has seen us play 3 times this year and that GMAR will give them fits in the paint and that Otis can't shoot and that JMU will shut him down. Which team has he gone to three games to watch?!?! Typical lazy narrative of seeing a 6 foot 7 kid in the box scores and assuming he just makes layups and dunks

I'd be surprised if JMU's defense can shut anyone down: they gave up 99 to Appy State, 90 to Texas San Antonio, 87 to Northern Kentucky, and 73 to Weber State.

Whoa - close game.

All I know is that I hope JMU suffers from the homecourt disadvantage.
