Pitt game discussion

There will be next to no Pitt fans there.  They don't travel that well but 15k for us?  No bobbleheads tomorrow.

Your guess moose?

there will be 8000 max there tomorrow and the sad thing is that half the regular posters on this board will not be there. And those that are not there  will be the most critical of the team and coach---and of the crowd! Funny how that works.

Let's hope the few posters who enjoy seeing this program lose have a bad day tomorrow. 

I do agree that Pitt travels poorly.  There was a mid week Pitt game about five years ago that drew about 4k at MSG. 

This is a big game this year, but few outside of the StJ crowd care right now.  It would be different if the team was in the top 20.

I'm just hoping to see section 114 full of happy johnny fans at about 2 PM tomorrow.

If its more than 10 I'd be shocked and pleasantly surprised

I've actually been freed and will walk up tomorrow to get tickets.

"Prediction: St. John's will battle, but lose because of an advantage in offensive rebounding from the Panthers, 65-63

There are plenty of "ticket brokers" outside the Garden where you can get a ticket for about $20.

2 years ago, place had a great crowd.  Maybe you are right, but I still think it will be at least 10k.  Big game.

Yea, but be careful, because these degenerates will attempt to rip you off, or sell you tickets that were for a previous game. I almost beat the snot out of one of them last year before Arizona.

"The Johnnies also are hoping to get a ferocious performance from 6-foot-9 forward Chris Obekpa, who acknowledged yesterday he has been looking forward to this One Shot against Pitt’s 7-foot center, Steve Adams of New Zealand. Obekpa has 107 blocked shots. Adams has 53."

“I’ve been waiting for this matchup,’’ Obekpa said. “He was one of the top prospects. I like going against top prospects.’’

When jokingly asked if would he would clean Adams’ clock, Obekpa, who has a 1,000-watt smile, quipped, “That’s the plan.’’

Obekpa ices it with foul shot.

Look much better than I thought they would. Hopefully they give us more luck than the black jerseys.
