Lot of momentum for us, but can we carry that on the road? Sam is playing really well, although struggled at the end of the SLU game yesterday.

'Jacks have won 13 straight vs Sam, and the Bearkats haven't beaten us in Huntsville since January 2010.

I think we are due for a good road victory. Hopefully we beat Sam, so they can go back to pretending that the fcs playoff is more important than the NCAA Tournament . at this point are bad road play has to be mental. Hopefully we can overcome that. I think the team needed to build their own identity separate from BU's team and hopefully they have done that.

I think we're getting the monkey off our back that plagued us through the first part of the season. Our players know they control their destiny, and I feel like they are starting to believe. Huge test #1: Beating UNO at home - check. Huge test #2: Beating Sam on the road....

My father-in-law may go and shoot the game for the Sentinel. If he does, then I'll probably go make the trip as well. I wouldn't mind this being my first away game.

Not surprising, but plenty of tickets if anyone wants to buy online.

Ya Purple.... went last year. I think the announced attendance was about 3800 or so. It was probably 2500 in purple or more.

Woo-hoo! I get to go to this one. Ready to do some heckling.

Let's be real though. Our only real chance to win the conference is to win this game. I don't see us making up two games if we don't get this one. Got to kill some kittens.

Would definitely be tough, especially with 5 of the last 9 games on the road. Road performance needs to drastically improve. NOW.

its been an usually season. I've watched more games this season than ever before. In past seasons i could get away with watching only home games because a win was almost guaranteed.

Getting antsy already. I'll probably hit up Humphrey's before the women's game if anyone made the trip.

I miss being a student, basketball trips were so fun.

Nice! I wish I had known about basketball trips when I was a student. I'm glad we're going to have some support there. I'll be getting there around tip off for the girls game. Hope to see some of you there.

Dogfight to start. Lots of energy, but play is a little sloppy. Nothing bad though. Just need to settle in.

Now the play is getting sloppy. Who's going to handle the energy?

We're missing free throws, they're missing point blank shots. Ugly, either way. I can live being down 4 after that.

Okay half. Too many turnovers and We have to attempt more 3s.

Stronger on the boards. Limit the turnovers. Stop the Kats from getting penetration. Pretty simple formula for the second half...

Holyfield is getting clowned. He needs to man up or sit down. Defensive rebounding has been subpar. Shsu isn't working much offense and getting quality looks cuz of second chance points. We correct that and we will be just fine.

Reset the shot clock and then say there was a clock violation?!?

No fieldgoals 7 minutes and counting...

There is little movement away from the ball. We keep forcing it inside. Need Traylor or someone to shoot outside.

Sad day. Didn't think this season would be this rough. If only we could play all are games at home

We played ugly and hung with a good Sam team on the road. I hate losing, but as long as we get a double bye in Katy, I don't care. We still get them in Nac...

No time to mope, gotta get ready for a NWST team that is looking to break a skid too

That double bye gonna be hard to come bye (get it?)

We just aren't nearly consistent enough to string together enough wins to get to a 1 or 2 seed. Mid table is where we are destined.

Thanks a lot, Kyle Keller

I'm disappointed but not disillusioned. I thought the Jacks played reasonably well for a road game against a decent team. Our Freshmen, Sophomores,and Juniors were simply bested by Prison Tech's Seniors. No way do I hang this one on Coach K. I though he coached his heart out in the second half, The offense bogged down for a stretch coming out of halftime, the shots didn't fall toward the end when we needed them to, and Prison Tech made their free throws all night long.

There's still time to improve enough to make a run in Katy. We just need to keep our eyes on the prize.

Well woke up this morning and saw the loss on my feed. You dont lose to Sam but I agree with Edstile. I don't blame the staff. The players just weren't prepared for a very focused Sam team. We didn't pull down enough boards on our end and Sam scored probably like 20 points just on second chance buckets. That's totally solvable.
