KenPom sees this as a 59-55 win for Rhody. I'll take whatever I can get.

Re: Game #20: George Washington - Saturday @ 4pm
I would be very surprised at a sellout, but I think there will be a good student turnout.
Get 2000-2500 students, and we should get 6000-6500 total.

Why is EZ saying every LOCAL student should be there? The students are back on campus. We need 3000 screaming students. Fill the joint. Go crazy!!!

God, I wish this was still a 2pm game. I'll be watching this one on TV, and hopefully you'll be able to hear me from the Northern part of the state.

I am bringing 8 people with me from Cumberland. 6 of them are casual URI fans. Only reason why I was able to convince them to come was because of the 4pm Saturday start time. We will be properly hydrated

Re: Game #20: George Washington - Saturday @ 4pm
Billy boy it wasnt the most eloquently worded tweet...I was still flying after the W and sent it in haste.
Also my word choice may have inadvertantly had something to do with me tweeting that you can't consider yourself a real fan if you weren't at the VCU game which drew some ire from non-local fans.
Message still rings true though....EVERYONE should be there that can make it. Students, alums & fans alike.

Three coming from central CT................We haven't missed a game in three years.
THIS ONE IS BIG!...............I haven't given up hope for an NCAA.
Inspite of an rpi in the 60's, we have games with five top 100 rpi teams left - GW, RICH, UMASS, DAYTON, DAVIDSON. They are all winable.

Yeah win the next two games and we could make a good leap into some sort of bubble position. Two top 100 wins. One of them on the road.

I'll be there to continue my streak of nobody sitting next to me.
Geez, even at a sold out concert last night, the two seats next to me were empty.
I'm starting to get a complex.....

They play alot of 1-3-1 zone. Hopefully, we can attack it successfully. It would be nice if Butler made some sort of impact. If not, interior passing by Gil and TJ will help. Go Rhody!

Re: Game #20: George Washington - Saturday @ 4pm
If it makes you feel better Rod, I'll come sit next to you, although I usually sit in a section where I can be seated "man" style as my girlfriend would say, that's with an empty seat on both sides of me. It's needed at the Rhody games, I like to get up frequently and pump my fists, stomp and make flailing gestures at refs, I like having room to spread out and when others see my behavior, I think they shy away from sitting next to me
Go Rhody!!!

Re: Game #20: George Washington - Saturday @ 4pm
Butler and "impact" are mutually exclusive.
Let's stop waiting for something that's unlikely to happen.
RR, I do all of that, and a lot of yelling at the putrid A-10 refs.
After all, my seat was Blueman's so I have to keep the tradition
going.
Hey, did anyone sit next to Blueman?

Re: Game #20: George Washington - Saturday @ 4pm
Just joined the board today to post about the GW game. Almost joined a couple weeks ago to support EZ Buckets who does one hell of a job on the mic.
The Chariho school district will be bringing over 260 people to this game and filling up sections 208 and 209. You'll see some of the kids before the game participating in a rally tunnel and staying courtside for the national anthem. Many of these people have never seen a Rhody BB game before and hopefully this game helps expand the local fan base.
Last I heard, this game is "The Greek" game for the season. Unless that has changed, the fraternities and sororities should help the student turnout and ruckus atmosphere quite a bit.

Re: Game #20: George Washington - Saturday @ 4pm
Dayton takes an L, EC is nursing up over the bye week sitting in second place tied with the Flyaaas.
As big a game as we've had here in some time. There are serious implications in the standings, of course providing that the Flyaaas lose.

It's showing that the all the top halves of the 300 sections are sold. VCU game showed the same thing. We now know that was not the case.twisted3829 wrote:Tickets available:

For some reason I thought this game was on TV somewhere other than OSN. Too bad, would be a good conference game for some of the other affiliates to pick up.

Don't take it personal Rod. Empty seats in my row too. RJ Heim got kicked out of his tho. Must have thought he could sit anywhere. Almost croaked when my ESPN flash said Rhody lost. I didn't check my phone again until I got home to find out they actually won. Great concert tho.
