ETSU/Belmont - bruinator06 - 02-14-2011 11:52 AM

Biggest game of the regular season this week. I think it has been recognized by the administration as well given that they have put Homecoming on this week. If there are any current Belmontians on this board I'd be interested to hear what the attendance is like at the pep rally this morning and on Thursday. We need all the hipsters to put on some normal-human clothes and come out for this one - even if it is just to chime in on an occasional "Let's go Belmont."

I expect a letter of resignation from both Dave Mullins and Murray Bartow after this one.

Young alumni are calling the students out, let's make it happen kids.

We have played better the last 2 games than maybe all year. (3 games ago we lost to Stetson 03-puke). I expect a good game but I don't think ETSU wins. Belmont wins by around 8 or 9 in the end. I think we have something for ya'll at the tourney, but not at the Curb.

Fan1, are there any caravans coming this way for the game?

Not that I know of. I would make it down but I have to work. And last years game down there was painful.

I will be there and cannot wait. I hope you guys are jacked up for the game.

It's homecoming week. I hope that will bring some extra bodies in the seats with a little more excitement.

I have to agree with our board's moderator that ETSU has been playing exceptionally the past three games. The first half I saw against Jacksonville was the most complete half of basketball ETSU have played all season. In many games however ETSU doesn't bring the same intensity in the second half, which I think has a lot to do with the fact that many of the players on ETSU are playing 30-38 minutes a game and tired legs and all that. There have been many stretches when ETSU just fails to score inexplicably. I'm nervous as hell about this one, but it should be a great game.


RE: ETSU/Belmont - Buccaneerlover - 02-16-2011 09:09 PM

24 hours to what is probably the biggest regular season game of the season for both of these teams... I liked Coach Byrd's interview on the radio today, and hope he's on tommorrow during the day with 3HL and the morning guys.


RE: ETSU/Belmont - arenafanatic - 02-17-2011 10:34 AM

Should be a great time. I hope the Curb is rocking!


RE: ETSU/Belmont - SNIURB06 - 02-17-2011 12:45 PM

As the Bud Light commercials say... "here we go."


RE: ETSU/Belmont - Bucfaithful - 02-17-2011 12:56 PM

This will be a great college basketball game. I, begrudingly (after all, we're 4-11 against you guys), have grown to respect your program.

This will likely be the 2nd game of a 3-game series this season.

Appreciate the kind words.

I agree, I think it'll come up again in the tourney. I'm definitely more excited about this game than any of the previous. So big for both teams. Hopefully this will start a new tradition of another big A-Sun rivalry... best two teams in the conference.

We're midmajority.com's game of the week

Not looking good early, but I hope you guys win -- from a neutral ASUN perspective. It would be nice to keep you in the spotlight. Just won't root for you against the Bears!! That's where I gotta draw the line.


RE: ETSU/Belmont - Bucfaithful - 02-17-2011 10:30 PM

Congratulations on your win. You guys are the epitome of fundamental play, but I was most impressed with your aggression on the glass.

Thanks. That was one intense game. Your guys just don't quit, even though you can tell they are tired. I would hate to give up Mike at the end of the season.


RE: ETSU/Belmont - MercerFan - 02-18-2011 12:23 AM

It says attendance was only 1901? I watched on ASUN.tv, it looked and sounded much bigger than that. Do you think that's a correct number?

Good question, Fan. It sure seemed like more to me too.
