No big deal on the end game. that's why you build up a big lead, because s**t always happens, and every team not named Rutgers from the last 3 years is going to make a run.

GREAT win.

Depaul was pressing all day and they were able to handle it fairly well.

Things got rough at the end, and I'm sure Coach will work on that...

We literally only hit THREE outside shots in about the last 25 minutes.

Thank god we dominated on the glass.

You knew they were going to make a run. DePaul has talent.

It's a scrappy win but it's on the road and... it's a WIN.

Anyone else annoyed with the announcers? They kept talking about depaul and how good they were going to be...No?

We won by 7 on the road, to a team that was favored by 3. It's a 40 minute game, and both teams had their runs, theirs just happened to be at the end of the game. I'm happy with this victory.

Johnson can't shoot free throws. he throws the ball at the rim without much focus. take a breath there # 0. Bend the knees.

I want Mike Williams with the ball end game. Kid has earned it. He has the FOCUS that the rest need to finish.

Agreed, several times during the game I thought we were on the big east network. They made it sound like depaul had the talent and we were a bunch of pluggers (except they liked Sanders).

Sure, we wanted to hold on for the 20 point win, but in a way, I think this works out in our favor as we won't get complacent and the coaches will have the players' attention.

Nigel has got to hit his FTs.
Otherwise we sub Gettys in for Nigel at end of games.
Haha!

Also, Tough to play in an empty arena. We lost our edge at the end but like any team in our position who haven't been winning in a long time we need to learn how to win. We held on even though Cain got hot and they started shooting better, that is a good thing and it is something to build on (especially on the road)
