Thurs - 7pm, ESPN+

St. Joe's won 2 of their first 3 games, but have not been on the winning side since. They were drilled by Temple, 108-61, in their last outing 9 days ago. Ryan Daly leads with 20.2 pts, 8.1 rebs, and 4.5 assts. Cameron Brown getting a lot of floor time, but no major impact. They have been without 6'8" starter Taylor Funk (injury?), since a loss to Towson. Play hard and play our game, and we should move to 9-3, and a nation leading 5 wins on the road. Go Tribe!

Also, if you are an ESPN+ subscriber only to catch Tribe games, this is our last appearance there this season.

Wow, expecting a road win at St. Joes (which I don't disagree). Has there ever been a year this would have been the case?

Tribe line is -1

5dimes has us as a 1 point favorite. Massey shows us with a 58% win probability and a 3 point margin.

Im surprised the spread is that low. I don't think they will give you guys much trouble despite being at home

Did St Joes suffer a big injury or something? They beat a pretty solid UConn team on the road earlier in the year

Their 6'8" forward, Taylor Funk, who is their best returning player got hurt. He, along with the former Blue Hen, Ryan Daly, were most of their offense. When they let Martelli go, they had 5 players leave, like we did after Tony. Funk was their Nate and he is still out. They don't have much firepower, but I would imagine Cam Brown will be extra stoked for this game.

And I sincerely hope that we are as stoked to see Cam as he might be to see us.

Very sloppy start. Again.

Not a pretty start, but just need to get a couple shots to fall.

They are playing more active defense than they usually do and it is clearly affecting us running our offense.

We are 1 for our last 6. Need someone to get hot.

Did we leave our defense in W-burg?

We've got last year's defense with this year's offense tonight

16-0 run for St. Joe's. We look very disoriented on offense.

Doesn’t seem like we’re playing with much urgency and hardly and ball movement ... they can’t handle our big and are doubling/tripling Nate ... need to move the ball quick ... too much stickiness right now ... Hamilton seems to force a lot of stuff on offense with not great results

We're looking like the team with an 8 game losing streak, not St. Joe's.

It's apparent that they don't want Nate to beat them, double and triple teamimg him whenever he touches the ball.

Yikes, not a good showing tonight
