Gonzaga v Baylor late tonight for a good opening game.

It will also be interesting to see how Ohio St fairs against Texas.

Good game between Santa Clara and Saint Louis this afternoon. STL hired Indiana State's HC and he brought over a few of his best players from that team (Avila and Swope). Santa Clara just had too many playmakers. Athletic team that should be top three in the WCC this year.

Temple vs. Sacred Heart just started on ESPN+ Jamal Mashburn Jr. is playing on Temple now.

Yeah, I was pretty impressed with Santa Clara. Seems like they always have a pro on their team. Think Bal has an opportunity to be their next one.

Ihnen had a fairly undistinguished first game with Liberty. He started but had 4 points (1 of 5 shooting and 2 free throws), 4 rebounds, and 4 fouls. Liberty had 4 players in double figures though and beat Valpo by 20.

Payne starting for Texas A&M and had 4 points, 3 rebounds, and a block in the first four minutes of the game. He also has 3 turnovers.

That's a loud crowd in that game.

Avila got hurt, leg injury

Yeah, he rolled his ankle pretty severely. Couldn't put weight on it.

That's a loud crowd in that game.

Payne had 8 points and 5 rebounds in the first half and managed to avoid going to the line.

8 pts 5 boards at the half in a 29-29 game

oops you beat me to it...

 

[CycloneGopher]

Payne 15pts fouls out with 3 minutes to go

 

[stocker08]

UCF takes the lead 62-61 with less than a minute remaining. And now going to the line for FTs.

 

[stocker08]

Wow. TAMU had three shots to tie the game and missed them all. UCF takes down Payne's new squad.

 

[topos]

Future opponent, Wichita State had a solid W on the road at Western Kentucky. I saw that WKU was projected to finish 2nd in the CUSA this year (tourney team last year).

Wichita shot the 3-ball well and had some bruisers, but they lacked poise. They struggled with a 1/3/1 press and shot free throws like our beloved Gophers down the stretch.
