Lee only took three pointers today. He hit 2 of three but we need him shooting more often and closer for us to be effective.

You stay classy, Provost Lucas. Flipped off UAB supporters chanting "Fire Ray Watts." Multiple witnesses.

So the Fire Linda Lucas chant did't influence that?

She turned around and smiled and waved at the end of the "Fire Linda Lucas" chant. During the next "Fire Ray Watts" chant, she flipped folks off.

If that really happened, that's insane. Not a shred of professionalism left among these people.

That was a hell of a game. Hopefully we have our confidence back and we eliminate some of the mistakes we made. We can win this tournament.

Not time to go into this even though it just shows more of the disconnect - it's the players time to enjoy the win & our support for it

Excellent win and great game. Hats off to the team and coach Haase for that late game execution. We looked dead in the water down 4 with about 2 minutes left. After that, our defense and offense fired on all cylinders. I was very impressed.

What time is game tomorrow?

Hopefully the first game has lots of fouls and goes to overtime to give me more time to get to Birmingham for the game. Leaving at 2:30. Normally takes 3 1/2 hours for me.

No idea what happened on the game time for tomorrow.

I thought I saw a few days ago that the game was at 6 & that it was the 1st game tomorrow.

CBS Sports Network will be carrying the game.

LA Tech jumps to a 10-1 lead.

UAB guaranteed a better than .500 record now.

2 wins away from the NCAA tournament auto bid.

When was the last time we played in the tournament semi finals? Seems to me that it's been a while.

They'll be well rested tomorrow.

La. Tech up 24-9 with 9:30 remaining in the 1st.

Turnovers

Rice - 8
La. Tech - 0

Damn I was hoping this game would at least be competitive. I missed our blow out win against La Tech at home. Did they just play terrible or do we have a favorable match up with them? WKU is tough with their great perimeter shooting and those giants down low.

In he 20 point win over LA Tech UAB destroyed them on boards 49-34 (Baxter had 10). We had 5 players in double digets, and Nick shot 4 of 6 from three land.
