MBBALL Eastern Game Thread

[Griz til I die]

7pm on ESPN+. Griz need to slow Eastern down from three and if we can do that, then I like our chances to pick up the win tonight. Eastern has been rather inconsistent this year and there aren't many guys on their team who have faced us before, but I bet they'll be juiced up tonight. Let's get off to a 1-0 start!

Also the marquee game of the night will be down in Ogden between UNC vs. Weber. That one starts at 6 and I believe is worth watching before the Griz game starts.

I can’t believe that conference play is already here! The 11 day break was huge for the health of the team and I expect Jedkins to be dressed out. A new season starts tonight! Go Griz!

I was gonna say, in the photos Griz Basketball posted yesterday, it looked like he made the trip. He gives us a big boost defensively and on the glass if he's out there.

Weber getting smoked 29-48 at half. NCU has looked good working into the post.

Weber State looks godawful. Apologies to oldrunner but they look bad.

Pridgen is a beast. These play by play guys are terrible.

 

[BelierPeaux]

Yep, love his physicality.

 

[BelierPeaux]

Odd. Both Men's and Women's Griz/EWU games are tied at 40 at half.

 

[WyomingGrizFan]

That's weird. Both the men's and women's teams are tied at half, 40 to 40. Simultaneously. At the same time, same score.

Has Foy played at all this year?
Maybe I just missed it

Weird. Both men's and women's EWU games are tied 40-40...unless ESPN is wrong.

Not wrong.

Injured to start the season, but has played in 6 games. He replaced most of Jedkins minutes. Averages ~8 minutes/game

 

[BelierPeaux]

Was hoping the rebounding would get cleaned up to start this half. So far not so much. Gotta keep them off the glass. EWU getting some lucky bounces, though.

 

[BelierPeaux]

As frustrating as some of the non-calls have been, at least they are letting both sides play.

 

[BelierPeaux]

I take it back. Four fouls on the Griz in about 2 minutes. WTF?

 

[EverettGriz]

GRIZ playin some D!!

 

[Mousegriz]

Griz small guards getting posted up by EWUs bigger ones. Novel concept.

 

[BelierPeaux]

What a sequence! Griz slamming the door down the stretch!

 

[Big Sage]

Boom! Great run to step on their throats
