Need this game badly!

Let's go, boys! Gotta keep their shooters from getting hot - we do that, and it's a blowout. Otherwise, could get close. It will be interesting to see how getting those two guys back helps or hurts them - they've been out for quite a while, probably will be somewhat rusty.

Also going from playing in front of 6K to an empty football arena should be interesting. Let's hope we score more points than the football team at NAU last fall!

I like to hear NAU to start out shooting well because that means they will go cold soon and we will run them out of the gym. Good 3 ball shooting by Moss!!

And Holmes wasn't suspended, I wonder where USAToday came up with that information?

It sounds like if we could get just a small lead, say 4-7 points and this game would be over.

We are playing like we want to get beat.

Has the game started. If it has look out for that little Fuerbach fella he could not hit in Bozeman but he can kill you if he shoots.

We can't hit the broad side of a barn, and NAU can't miss

I do not have any radio. What is the Score?

Just frickin' great. Down 11 to a 3-8 team and we sound like we are playing Illinois. It doesn't even sound like we have showed up yet. Man I hate listening to the Cats play on the road.

BozoneCat · Post by **BozoneCat** » Thu Feb 17, 2005 8:27 pm

Yeah, not sounding good at all so far. The Cats need to get back to playing some team ball. Why does it seem like they have to get reminded of that so often? When they play good team ball, they are very difficult to beat. Yet, they fall back into playing the JC-style every-man-for-himself basketball for at least some period of time almost every game. I don't know, it just puzzles me...

Sounds like C. Durham got the big head with his 3 shooting from the friz game. Calm the 'eff down Cats.

Barnbat · Post by **Barnbat** » Thu Feb 17, 2005 8:32 pm

I assume its grim but what is the score and the time?

BozoneCat · Post by **BozoneCat** » Thu Feb 17, 2005 8:33 pm

I was just thinking the exact same thing about Durham. He needs to remember that he is playing POINT guard, his biggest responsibility is to pass the ball around and get everyone involved. He had a game for the ages against the griz, but not every game is going to go like that. Take what the night is giving you. Sounds like Casey is playing great defense so far, though.

Sheesh, just look at all these helpful souls!!!

Getting homered tonight sounds like

6 team fouls to 2, nice.

And, of course, another absolutely STELLAR job by the incompetent Big Sky refs.
