I haven't been to Scope since the notorious post season game that the VB police took Bazemore away.

Was that game held at Scope?

It was at the TED against Mercer.

Oh I remember now. The game after that one was at Scope vs SC Upstate and lost!

Can we at least buy beers at this game?

Nope. We beat SC Upstate at Scope then lost at The Ted to Mercer in The Bazegate game.

I'm not always the most optimistic, upbeat guy in the world, but I have to say some on here sound like entitled brats. It's one freaking game, not a whole season. Get over it! Wow, can't believe I just said that. I almost sound like a republican.

Are we a better team than NSU? Unquestionably. Do we have a much larger fan base? We do. Does this mean that we should act like a bunch of prissy Duke fans -- insisting that we're too good to meet them on a neutral court? Answer that for yourself.

Scope section 222 for my crew. No, not the same primo sightlines that we enjoy at the Ted, but I am very much looking forward to this game.

And I am very proud of ODU for choosing to be a fully supportive member of the Norfolk community.

Got to be the Holiday stress for some .. Grinch and Scrooge influenced opinions abound. Enjoy the time away from the stress with family and friends and take in a game and support the team even if it means searching for something to bring back to the boards to complain again .. at least enjoy the few hours together

So a voice of reason reminds you of Republicans? Cool I like it!

The hell with it. I will be there terrible seats and all, raising hell in support of sending those clowns back to their corner of town with their tails between their legs. Behold the black and blue. I hope we run them off the court.

Beer and wine will be sold throughout the venue on Friday.

It's been too long since this had post space:

Seat location doesn't bother me at Scope. I would much rather sit in the nosebleeds at Scope than to play at NSU Echols Hall.

A little off-topic but I saw in the teaser video for the light-blue throwbacks that a replica fan version would be sold in the bookstore and online soon. Does anyone have any insight on this? I would love to buy one

This is a dangerous game since a win would make their season - and their crowd is going to get them going emotionally. I haven’t looked into why they’re having a down year, but hopefully Jones exploits it. Given our experience and improved offense, this should be a blow out.

Why are we playing this game at Scope rather than at the TED? Just asking.

And my seats are surprisingly poor as well. I hope at least they put the ODU season ticket holders together.

They are doing something good for the community.
