You can be tough by not doing anything and showing you are better than them.

I'm sure Mick will issue a warning before the game, if not everyday in practice so far, that if you instigate anything, you're sitting the rest of the game.

I will say no less than 15 mentions of the fight and 4 times they show the fight on tv.

They will mention the fight 11 times and show the video clips 3 times (before the game, a mid game timeout and halftime coverage as well).

That's fine by me. Watching Kenny Frease get knocked out never gets old. Just wish Yancy could have landed one on Lyons.

The fight was somewhat embarrassing for our school, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy watching Frease get jacked up by Gates. Especially after the headbutt from the prior year. Anyone have that clip of him doing the Carlton?

I doubt he has had to say a word.

Not the best quality but shows Mongo making his escape.

I will be at the game tonight with a bunch of customers.

I will be there, and dropped of a ticket with BearcatMark a couple of hours ago.

If UC wins it will be by more than 5 IMO. Then again, I fully expect a tight, ugly game.

Not good.

It's bad enough to have those guys under normal circumstances. I just hope they call it somewhat even. Cahill and Stephens both worked the UL/Memphis game last Saturday that had a total of 53 fouls!

As long as the call it the same for both sides it shouldn't be a big deal. It might be a foul fest but it should be an even toward both sides foul fest. But as we know from past Shootouts, XU seems to get the benefit of the calls.

That's why I'm watching this one from home. Hate sitting at US Bank way back behind the basket.

Tons of whistles tonight. Mark it down. Lot of FT shooting on the menu.

I worry about a tightly called game, because the Bearcats play such aggressive, in your face, defense. At the same time, if it is called both ways the Bearcats have a lot more depth. The closer we get, the more I think UC runs X off the floor. Cash and Killa are going to be ready to go after last year.

Do not like a tightly called game either,but XU has no depth whats so ever,so I think it would favor the Cats.
