WANTED: Passionate Sycamore Fanatics. That You?

Register NOW to join our community of die-hard Sycamore fans.

Thankfully I'm running a little behind on getting home, which helps me with the parking nightmare. Tomorrow is supposed to be my first day off, but I'm over in Edwardsville, IL (by St Louis) right now with a delivery going to Plainfield at 11 AM tomorrow morning. After they unload me I'm going to park my truck at the company's terminal in Indy and just Uber to the game from there.

Sucks they don't take cash, but whatever. Hopefully I'll find a water fountain, because I'm not waiting forever in a line, cash or not.
There are water fountains at mid court in the line for the mens room behind the beer kiosk stand between section 206 and 207. good luck

just go to aWalmart put $20 on a prepaid visa and your problem is solved. You can eat a hotdog and a coke and life is fine.
 
From what I gather...SH is a slightly smaller version of CINCY, but doesn't shoot it as well as CINCY.

I think its a case that we just need to keep doing what we're doing and we should be okay.

Yep, they don't shoot the 3 ball well percentage wise.

If our shots from the outside are falling, I'm sure our guys would love to trade 3-for-2 all night lone.

Almost game day!

Blocking out all the speculative noise from clickbait "journalists" and desperate A-10 fan forums, and focusing solely on this team & staff for the next 24 hours.
I'm reminded of one of many HCJS basketball slogans: Impose Your Will (sometimes seen on warm-up t-shirts).

Go Sycamores!
 
I just re watched the game. That second half was beautiful. I just think we are playing with such confidence now and if we come out sharp, we could see another game like last night.
I just watched for the 3rd time lol. Seton Hall isn’t hitting 17 3’s either. We need stabilize Richmond on defense and I think Kent can do that while Robbie sags off as their center hasn’t hit a 3 all season.
On offense Robbie can sit at the top of the key to pull Bediako from protecting the lane. They don’t have much depth and I really think we need to push the pace and get after it in the open floor. They physically and shooting from deep wide don’t scare me as much as Cincy and Utah, but then I look back and see they beat UCONN by 15 and Marquette.

I’m predicting a monster game for J Kent…23 pts and 12 rbs and great defense!
 
Am I assuming correctly that we're not the HOME team in this game...so hence we won't be in the powder blues??...that we're likely in the dark royals?
 
We need the game to be officiated like last night so that we don't get in foul trouble. I thought it was fairly officiated and consistent throughout.

The law of averages says even really good teams will occasionally drop games to divisional opponents you wouldn't expect them to lose to (Illinois State says hi). They also lost games to Iowa, Rutgers, and USC, and needed OT to beat Saint Joseph's.

For what it's worth, their wins over UConn and Marquette came on their home court. On the road they lost to UConn by 30 and Marquette by 17.

Some calls against us I didn't agree with in person were definitely correct once I watched the game back.

Conwell still should have gotten an +1 for the shot to tie at halftime and that half court inbound pass by Utah definitely wasn't deflected. Otherwise pretty fairly officiated and I wish we had that crew at Alabama or Michigan State

This is honestly the only thing that worries me.

Seton Hall's defense is ranked in the 30s on Evan Miya and our only other Top 50 opponent there was Michigan State. If the refs let them get handsy on our movement or if they are tight on the calls when their big bangs in the post or their guards crashing the glass, we're going to need more from the bench.

If we can get one or two good runs in, or a couple "Kill Shots" as Miya likes to call 'em, I'm not sure they can shoot themselves back into the game like Utah could.
 
I think I can speak for all Aces fans in wishing you the absolute best of luck in taking down Seton Hall tomorrow night! We will all be pulling for you.

Also, even though it will mean our ascension to the top of the league will get delayed another year, I really hope you are able to keep Schertz and the team together for next year. It is truly remarkable what has transpired up there and it is much more than just a school getting a good team. You all have suffered nearly as long as us, and your rise and response is not replaceable simply by changing jerseys. We are seeing the magic of this from down here. Continuing this by running it back next year is good for ISU, Terre Haute, Indiana and the MVC.

Cheers!
I appreciate your post. I was born and raised in Evansville and was a fan of the Aces all of the 50's and early 60's until 1965 when I started at ISU.

Why wouldn't we be the home team? I thought we were the #1 overall seed
