TV for today's game against USC

You're optimistic about a game which Wake is favored to win? That's where we are now.
 
Damn, if we beat USC, Tennessee looks impressive.

Well, we've never been away from that. Even in the doldrums, we were supposed to beat the likes of Stetson, Winthrop, or Wilmington. We just didn't.
 
If you want to beat a dead horse about games that happened three years ago then that's fine, but let's let today play out and see what happens.
 
Does anyone have a link? Neither firstrow or vipsports have one up.
 
It's not on ATDHE either, which we used yesterday for the game. Any luck on other links? I'd have to think if it's not on firstrow, then it won't be anywhere.

Slow down there, chief. You said "at least we're now to the point where we're supposed to win." Do you not realize that statement implicitly brings our recent history into context?

And if you'd prefer, I can use names like Iona, Nebraska, Dayton, or Wofford. Are they recent enough to fit the context of your comment? My point is that we were always "supposed" to win games like that. The fact that we didn't was what has become status quo. We'll know in a few hours where USC falls in terms of that list.

You won't hear any arguments from me that those losses were unacceptable. And I'm fully aware that our program has fallen is not exactly "historically competitive," but let's just let this season play out. If we lose today then be as critical as you want, because this is a game we should and really must win. But until then let's chalk it up as a "status-quo" loss before they have even tipped off.

Well they didn't look so hot against a powerhouse UTEP team last night.

Tennessee is very athletic. If we can win today, tomorrows game could really be a great measuring stick. If we lose we play Xavier and then play them again in a month. No thank you.
 
Stadium empty.

Can't blame them. Lot better things you can be doing at the Atlantis than watching two crappy basketball teams.
