MyBB Crunch Week, Part I -- ODU at MTSU, 2/9/17 @ 8:00 ET
There are only two ways that this game will tell us much about this year's Monarch squad:

--> First, if against all odds and expectations we somehow manage to win, at least half the fan base will feel as if the sun has finally come out after a week-long monsoon.

--> Second, in the slightly more likely event that we get completely and totally blown out by Empty Sue, who just dropped one to UTEP, it will pretty much squelch any lingering hopes that there is something positive to be drawn from this season.

But by far the most likely outcome will be game in which we never lead but at least show faint signs of a team that can semi-compete but not win. In which case, the poster v. poster wars will rage on.

Ed's article really made our youth stand out to me. This is our third road trip to MTSU in four years, yet Denzel and Jordan are the only guys on the roster that have made this trip before. This is the first time for the other 13 guys.

We are +9 right now.

Were I still a betting man, I'd take mtsu to cover after a loss to utep and playing a young team coming off a terrible loss all day and twice on Sunday's.

Which is probably why we will cover ha ha

Expecting MTSU to hand us a YUGEEE A$$ SMACKING tonight but would love for our guys to come out and stun them. Hell, might have to light up the good stuff tonight for what this one could be...

0-9 vs UAB and MTSU since joining the conference. If anything, it will be comic relief if this is somehow the year we pull out a W.

MTSU ruined an at-large for us two years ago. Do we want to return the favor?

I would argue the loss to UTSA was far more damaging that year, but the point remains. We owe them. Hopefully they can shock most of us and start a new winning streak tonight.

They might have already done that, but if we win that would put the nail in the coffin for sure

This game is on beIn right? I haven't tried watching a beIn game this season yet. Is there a way through Roku or am I out of luck if I don't have cable?

We lost both games on that trip to Texas.

Oh whoops I misread your initial comment, I thought you were talking about MTSU's loss last week to UTEP.

Middle is a really good team. Their defense pretty much mirrors our (ours is a hair better), but they shoot lights out. Really, the team is kinda like a mirror of us in style of play. Both play really slow, stake a similar amount of 2s and 3s and give up about the same percentage of 2s and 3s. The difference between the teams is they make their shots.

They don't have much depth, but they are 7 strong. 3 headed monster is far better than anything we have in conference.

They play just like we do. Hopefully when our guys get more experienced, thats where we will be. They really lucked out with the transfer big man from Arkansas.

I have watched a couple of BeIN broadcasts via facebook on my phone when the Blue Raiders were on and I was in Murphy Center seeing the actual game or a Lady Raiders game while the men were on the road. I was surprised by the quality, not having expected much at all.

Yep, bein just posted a thing saying the game will be streaming live from facebook. So as long as you have an account you are good to go, just go to the bein sports page on facebook I assume.

Thanks, I"ll check out FB. If not I'll probably just go with the radio feed. Speaking of, I was listening to a game a few weeks ago, can't remember which one and Ted Alexander made a Dora the Explorer reference. When someone made a steal he said something to the effect of "Swiper YES Swipey". 03-banghead
