UM vs NAU...the rubber match.

[Griz2k]

I think a lot of teams bait Ellis into driving into the lane. He gets his stuff swatted alot. He just had another one get swatted. I know he got a lot of buckets this way against WSU, but it sure looks easy for other teams to swat him. I wish he wouldn't go in there.

Trying to draw the foul I would assume. But the way this team shoots FT's......

Ah, forget it. There's a general correlation between age and maturity.

I think GB1 blows that theory out of the water. :laugh:


Sorry...the smack just presented itself. :dance:



Facts are facts. The team didn't show up to play in a do or die situation. Hopefully they have enough to crawl out of the hole they dug themselves.

Yeah, i think that's just a lack of leadership and Tinks needing to find a way to really fire these guys up.

That's just the problem. He doesn't draw fouls.

Well, the Griz seemingly have made runs all year when they've been down at the half. They need to do it again. But I'll admit, for some reason I'm not at all confident that they're going to.

I'm a little worried. Normally i'm always pretty sure the Griz are going to pull it out but an early 22 point deficit gives this game a different feel.

It's too bad that the coach has to worry about firing up his team, when their season is on the line.

 

[AtHomeInTheDahlbergDen]

You know, it's not Be ellis. It's just BE, as in his initials. Not that it's that big of a deal.

Yep.

Heh, good point but you can look at it the other way as well... if a coach can't get a team fired up when their season is on the line then there are some problems on both ends.

Great interview with O'Day, they talked about revenue that making the NCAA's generates for the conference. After hearing what he said, it is another reason why we need to get out of a 1 bid conference. Basically, each round is worth 1 million for a conference per team that advances.

 

[AtHomeInTheDahlbergDen]

Fouling 3's... that's good.

 

[mtgrizrule]

Back to 6, and we foul Sir from 3 land. damn. Miss please!

 

[AtHomeInTheDahlbergDen]

Fouling 3's... that's good.

wait, maybe not.... yeah Cam.

 

[mtgrizrule]

WTG Cam

 

[EverettGriz]

All right! Got a little run going. Now play D!

 

[mtgrizrule]

keep it going GRIZ within 3 now

 

[AtHomeInTheDahlbergDen]

NAU has to be more than a little rattled after letting us make up this huge deficit. Wow, we are scoring at will. I may be going to Ogden after all.

 

[mtgrizrule]

down to 1, Ellis is taking control on the defensive end.

 

[EverettGriz]

WAHHOOO!!!!!!! Griz down 1, TO NAU.

I guess I was wrong about the run, and I've never been happier to admit it!!

Now that the Griz are back in the game, they got to keep the pedal to the metal.

They have to take advantage of the momentum while they have it, and not get satisfied.


The next 5 minutes could make or break this game.
