Rice is bad. However, we are coming off a huge road win. We can't get complacent.
I think a big win would be a nice going on the road stretch.

I expect a 20-30 point win. Maybe a few mistakes but that's because we can afford them.

Another trap game. Emotional high from a big win and two HUGE road games against SEC opponents on the horizon. Easy to overlook the Owls...In Keller I trust...Jacks win

We need the crowd to show up, Rice might suck, but this is a name brand school showing up at our place.

How much is the Lufkin vs Longview game going to affect the attendance?

I'm already trying to figure out how to do it. Read an article about parking for the football game. They were encouraging people to get there two hours early.

Short answer is: come to the game because we're good. Be prepared to walk.

Lufkin/Longview is a 6A Regional Final. Winner moves on to State Semifinals. Homer Bryce is going to be packed. Get there early and prepare to walk. I think I have a place to park nearby, but not sure...Hopefully nobody stumbles upon it...

I still want to know who allowed it to be scheduled at the same time.

A Rice alum is the coordinator for this high school region. Like a good engineer, he is trying to take out home court advantage from the Jacks.

You have to buy scantrons now? Haha. Whatever it takes.

Yep and we used to get free printing last semister but they took it away.

Midmajor Madness' writeup on last night's Southland triumphs:

Southland is better than Your Land

Trusting that the coaching staff will try to keep the guys thoughts on Rice come Saturday. Big win behind us and the SEC matchups looming....keep the focus on one game at a time.

Will this game be on ESPN 3?

Yessir

Hate I'm missing this one. Had every intention of being there, kind of spending the day in Nac, but water heater issues last night. Still will watch online, but this one stings...

Drove by and they have saved half of the commuter lot for the game. The other half is overflowing everywhere. Good day to be a basketball fan.

he hurt his shoulder

idk why kevon didn't start

Slow start. Probably due to lineups and that we have 5 fouls at the first media timeout.

fouls are going to be a problem

I'm here for my first game in a long time.

I gotta say, we need to get Keller some sort of sport coat deal.

His jacket is hideous. Looks like reused carpet from the Fredonia.

Lol

That's his thing, but like Stache nights a couple years ago, bad blazer night should be a thing.

This Rice team is not good. We're playing meh, but they are worse. We might have a million fouls when this is done, but we will win.
