Exactly. I think the only game I can remember is the 2003 game where it was practically a blizzard. My roommate and I walked over from Hopkins -- it might have been still snowing even before tipoff if I remember correctly.

Unfortunately, I will not be making the game tonight. I've been having health issues for the last few months and was in the hospital Thursday night; still waiting for a surgical date and to find out actually what is going on. If I tried to go it would be kinda too overwhelming for walking/crowds/standing. I have a ton of FOMO for not going but I'll be watching from my cozy couch looking at my tree at least.

Have fun everyone! :)
Hope you get better! Maybe URI will pull one out for you and Don Kaull tonight!

I think my biggest concern for this game is that the guys get caught up in the moment and try to do too much. Packed house, huge rivalry game, some big names in the crowd...all could be a recipe for getting out of control and making bad decisions for an inexperienced/young team. A fast start would be huge.

It was an accomplishment just getting into the RC. 50mph gusts and a driving wind didn't make for an easy walk. 😳🌬️💨🌪️

Really good listen
Reef, some good comments by Tim Welsh in the video about game strategy against Rhody.

I wonder if the the Friaaaaz will take that approach on D? Seems likely. If they do, it would be great to see the freshman Hutch and Rory nail some open 3’s to swing a close game to us. I would thoroughly enjoy that scenario!

Personally, I don’t know if Arch will play both freshman extended minutes today or not. It’s a big spot to be in early in their first season of cbb. We will see.
I enjoyed when Welsh brought up the blizzard game when Hellenga was draining 35 footers !!

Good D to pick up offensive foul. PC definitely has advantage inside. They should since some of them are in their 7th year. 🙂

We also aren't going to win many games where Bray and Ish both aren't scoring. Second half could get ugly.
