It's not as bad here as it looked like it was going to be a couple of hours ago. The sleet/freezing rain has stopped for now, but it will probably get worse again as the evening goes on.
Guess I'll have to wait until November for my next Arena outing. ☹️
Oh, wow: forget the above.
I just went out to see what the street is like: it's really BAD out there. I'm going to guess the main roads aren't quite as bad, but it would be nuts to venture out tonight.
Bummed for the seniors, but I highly recommend staying home.
Crowd is bigger than I expected on TV. Still pretty empty but understandable given the conditions. There's more people than the Missouri State game which was completely empty. Guess people wanted to go to the last game.
Trent 2-3 from 3 so far. Would be huge if he got going, especially those wide open corner 3's

Glad to hear that, but I hope they all make it home OK and that this crap doesn't get any worse.
Thanks for the update.
(Inflammatory political snark)
15 point lead with 4:48 left in the first half. Illinois State and Reeves look like a tired team
Our offense just might be coming around. If SVP and Trent keep this up, then look out.

We hated to miss the last home game but watching it from home seemed like the better choice tonight.
127 from Murph to Pinkkneeville was bad couple of hours ago. Salt trucks were out. It has stopped.
Jones' two 3's together are more distance than my driver off the tee. That is equally telling of how far out they were from and how poorly I drive the ball. LOL
Jones makes a 3 from the dog teeth!!
SIU 49
Illinois St 24
Halftime
Salukis hit 10 3's at the half
My dream of a 30 pt blowout might come true!
I think SIU has scored less than 49 points 4 times this year. Hard to believe that's possible when they play like this
Evansville is trying for some futility tonight
Lance Jones just needs to keep shooting from the logo
