Should be another great and challenging game. Wouldn't hurt my feelings to get a dominating win while we continue to trend upwards.

wouldn't hurt my feelings to get a win by the skin of our teeth

I have a good feeling about this game. Much like the LaTech game, this will be a great barometer for our team and its recent success. I think it will be a close game either way..

Let's get to .500 today!

It wouldn't hurt my feelings to win by 30.

We are very similar to ODU. The counting stats are very close for both teams, and so are the shooting percentages. They have a nine man rotation, plus a couple other guys who might play a few minutes. They are led by two impact transfers, a guard from Campbell (#20) who is leading them in minutes and points, and Arledge (#35) who is a grad transfer starting center. He plays 20-25 minutes and puts up 10 and 6. Bacote and Mosley fill out their productive backcourt, and Ross is an undersize but solid forward. Charlotte was an interesting team because although they weren't deep, everyone they threw out there could light it up. ODU is the opposite, with plenty of depth, but the stars do most of the scoring. Even though Norton was amazing offensively on Thursday, he got abused several times on defense. That shouldn't be as big of a problem today. I bet it will be another close game, but this time it will be low scoring. I say we get another close one.
