It'll be really ugly no matter who wins. SLU plays elite defense and has no offense.
Good article on Fletcher
Great read. Pumped for tonight!
For me this win is always a must. They have dominated us (which team hasn't) for the past few years. Must reverse that tonight. It's one of those keys that measure a programs status and progress. A loss is a terrific setback for this season. It's at home. Anyone remember the 33 game home streak. If you can't win at home you will have a difficult time on the road. Watched UConn women blow up SLU last night. Makes my skin crawl just to be in the billikids arena. This game is proof the Tulsa and Colorado State games were real. Keys to win: ton's of assists, hitting the threes and stopping the habit of giving away open looks for 3's and 2's. Might be a good time for SIU to get to the free throw line 18-25 times....SLU will.
BH says it will be a big crowd, may be a "sell out" and, it's a "significant game."
When he mentions things like that, based on past performance, I get a bad feeling in my gut.
Hope it's wrong.
March on triumphantly!

I'm guessing it will be the biggest crowd of the season but there are thousands of tickets available.
Craving a McBride Special!
5200 would be a big crowd
Yep: Big crowd + hopeful fans = blowout loss for the Salukis during the BH era.
If I were a betting man I'd take StL all day long.
(Inflammatory political snark)
I am picking Dawgs 66-63. There was a nice crowd for Buffalo game, about 5000 I figured and they announced I believe 4600 or so.

SIU -2
71-63 Slu
I see another "players were nervous because of the big crowd" excuse coming.
I think we win and the hinson haters fall silent till next week.

I have bad news for you. I am off and watching the game. This usually spells doom for the Dawgs
