6pm at the Ford Center in Evansville. ESPN+
First meeting: SIU’s five starters all scored in double-figures and combined for 72 of the team’s 78 points in a 78-73 win. Aaron Cook had 15 points and 7 assists.
SIU game notes:
SIU 64
Nick Evansville 77
SIU played well enough and made enough plays to beat Loyola and we all know what this means for a Barry Hinson lead team...... Huge letdown coming.
Evansville 203
SIU 65
SIU opens as a 2.5 point favorite.
I am going to say SIU in a tight one... 63-61. Likely will be good enough to avoid Thursday games regardless of what happens this weekend. Still possible though, only way to be sure is go 2-0.
No clue with team. If Barry misses the bus, SIU by 15.
--Insert something witty here--
Last year at Evansville... UE 75, SIU 44.
So this starts at 6 pm central time? Is Evansville on Eastern time...
Evansville is not in Eastern time zone. It’s just a 6:00 game. Same on our schedule.
Tuned in a little late and Rudy is playing less than 4-minutes in. What's the deal with that?
- Rudy started tonight because there are 6 seniors and he won't get a chance to start on Senior night in Carbondale.
