5-1 Salukis early
Salukis playing with 8 players.
The game is on ESPN3 instead of ESPN+ if anyone cares.
Pippen did not start. Gooch with his first start.
14-5 Dawgs now. Take care of the ball and hit the boards, and this one should be a 15+ point victory with ease.
Better ball movement so far. 23-8 with 11:15 left in the 1st.
27-12 Dawgs... finish this half strong, push the lead up to 20, and get everyone a little playing time.
The big score of the night.... the Furman Paladins (who won at Loyola last week) won in OT at Villanova today, so they've already beaten half of last year's Final Four teams.
36-17 SIU

Good for Furman. That's a remarkable stat.
We have no idea what to do when the shot clock drops below 8.
Is Bol playing better? I’m not near a radio for this one.

6 points, 4 boards so far... he put down a pretty vicious alley-oop, so that was nice.
Hard to really gauge this team's performance tonight, considering it's against a SWAC team. Teams from that conference have been horrible for at least the last decade.

Furman is tough. Won 23 games each of the last two years. Won their conf. last year but got upset in their tourn. Also, Villanova has talent but a shadow of last years team - lost a bunch of All-Americans. (Michigan, who they whipped in the Natl Champ. last year, just pounded them by 27 points.)
