Stage Fright
« on: December 22, 2010, 11:29:00 AM »
Our wins have all come in front of small, disinterested crowds in near empty arenas:
Alaska, Holiday and to a lesser extent Columbia and Wagner.

All our defeats have come in loud, filled and raucous venues:
St. Mary's, Fordham and to a lesser extent St. Bonnie.

Coincidence?

Yes, this team is just really inconsistent. They have played good in front of big crowds before. If they were Freshman or a really young team that hadn't seen big crowds then Id agree but this team has seen way bigger and louder crowds like at Duke, 'Cuse, Pitt, etc. If we play like we did yesterday the crowd won't matter.

If we played Fordham and St. Mary's in the dead Alaska environment?  We would have won.  Maybe St. Bonnie too.

I think St. Mary's beats us on a neutral floor, Steindl was simply unstoppable.

Every game is a road game for these guys.
Wait until Syracuse gets here.

5 hour drive? No problem.
