END THE STREAK!

Go Flyers and Go Archie!

[Levelbest]

Any online streaming for todays game? I'm out of town and my slingbox decided to crap out. Otherwise, I'll be searching for a sports bar that gets CBS Sports here in Phoenix, AZ

[Falcon7]

CBS Sports is an extra fee for TW customers, correct?

[UDBrian]

In another thread someone mentioned that it is $5 but you would get several games in the next month

[UD90]

Leaving for the game now with low expectations and high hopes, but I decided 5 years ago I was going to be there when the streak ended. I wonder if anyone has witnessed live all 26 losses during this miserable streak. 5 times in a row seems like an eternity.

Expect the unexpected with this team.

Go Flyers!

[NCkevi]

I also think that CBS Sports carries the quarter and semi finals of the A10 tournament, so well worth the price (and they usually pro-rate the cost as well so if you cancel after the A10 touney it will be even less)

[Fudd]

If we win this game, it will be 3 wins in the last 3 games for the Flyers against Gangsta U.

Go Flyers!

[Flyer 86]

let's do THIS. HAVing my homemade Seafood Risotta then it's GAME TIME!!

Josh Parker, Kavs and Dillard save the day!

[Viperstick]

Just started self medicating. Hoping to relive my childhood and witness a win over X in Cincinnati.

[Viperstick]

LaSalle & UMass tied with 1:08 to go. Please someone just win that game so we don't get hosed on the TV coverage.

[rmdflyers]

Listening to the pregame on WHIO...Frease not starting tonight. Very interesting, sign of respect for Kav??

?????

[udx2]

Kevin getting some love from the LaSalle -- UMass announcers on CBS Sports. He will be critical. Hope he is on like the x game at UD, and Chris carries over his performance from the last game.

[rmdflyers]

Yeah, I am not sure what to think...

[Viperstick]

Really CBS Sports? I bet we only hear about the 30+ year streak about 69 more times in the next two hours.

[Viperstick]

Great. Steve Wolf. My all time least favorite announcer.

Who are the dooshs who dress up like papal mafiosos?

[jack72]

Every year the friggin announcers keep talking about the last time in Cinti. And of course they will barely mention, if at all the last game, or that we won two straight.

[udx2]

Kav starts it off with 2.

[steve]

How the he'll did they not call a push off on x

[Viperstick]

Time to switch from beer to Jack. Way to dig a hole guys.

[TommyGola]

Paul Williams needs to sit. His head is not in this huge game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jack72]

His head is not in any game

[DetroitFlyer]

Wow, ugly start. Xavier fired up, Flyers flat....

[Canonball]

Inspiring ball from our seniors. Argh

[FlyerFanatic08]

he checked out weeks ago...the shooting skid hasnt helped that at all

[jack72]

Our offense is offensive right now

[jack72]

We are the worst at stopping layups and giving up three point plays.

[jack72]

Great play an dribble to the basket by CJ

[Flyer 86]

Gavs our secret weapon.

X with 3-2 zone on at least one possession there. Smart if they keep that up

[DetroitFlyer]

Looking better. Down 2, 16-14.

[TommyGola]

We can't let these guys dribble through the paint without some kind of defensive effort. They are feasting on us with dribble penetration.

[Swampy Meadows]

Talk about a streaky offense, UD scoring in spurts
Posted via Mobile Device

[Flyer 86]

we can have our way inside on offense with them.

gotta keep Tu and Lyons out of the middle

[DetroitFlyer]

Seems like Xavier is getting every offensive rebound....

[TommyGola]

These announcers are nothing more than story-tellers. They give you no information at all.

[Buster]

Why is Kav still on bench?

[FlyerGuyer]

Alex is playing with authority. Flyers bricking wide-open threes...

[FlyerGuyer]

Sit down Chris Mack!

[jack72]

idiot announcer Wolf saying nothing happened,when KD was tripped

[udx2]

UD in the lead.

[FlyerGuyer]

KD makes four straight free throws. Silk.

[FlyerGuyer]

Kavs takes the charge. Nice.

[jack72]

Yes, the gangsta gets a T

[Flyer 86]

Win or lose... I LOVE THIS Team!

great energy. great ball mmovement

[rscale31]

Lyon's T'ed up now.
Xavier fans booing is music to my ears.

[udx2]

Another technical on x. Give us more chances.

[Viperstick]

Nice that Lyons has reverted to his old ways.

[rasta man]

i love 2 T's on X, get into their head guys!!

[FlyerGuyer]

The Thugsketeers are losing their poise again.

[Flyer 86]

i think announcer also said Staten was here last year with Marcus Johnson $#$%$@! ????

There is a reason why they are not on ESPN.

[Flyer 86]

love that we have Gavrilovic for three more years.

Can you say Stud? He will be by next year for sure.
solid fundamentals this kid. Love it

[FlyerFanatic08]

two techs in 30 sec, haha

[jack72]

9 free throws have got us ahead

[FlyerFanatic08]

yep, add some weight/strength, i expect him to only get better

[TommyGola]

Has anyone noticed that Luke has gotten into this habit of IMMEDIATELY passing the ball when he gets it...and it's normally to the next guy in the horn. Opponents are reading that. Watch him and you all will notice.

[jack72]

Last 11 points on FT

[Viperstick]

Someone needs to pass Alex's parents the links to online streams. Sounds like they're only listening.

[steve]

Get the freaking ball inside flyers..

[FlyerFanatic08]

PW needs to stop shooting. plain and simple

[steve]

Williams is just garbage. Plays like a HS kid.

[Flyer 86]

sorry Paul williams equals waste. used to like him.

man . very sad

[Viperstick]

Really Flyers? How about not turning the ball over.

[steve]

Parker is a joke at the point. It's truly unbelievable every time he plays there he's a turnover machine. There are HS kids better.

[DetroitFlyer]

Lost our focus.

[jack72]

PW is 0-5 and 2 TO

[TommyGola]

Josh Parker and Kevin Dillard to to be more aware of the back court pressure.

[DetroitFlyer]

12-0 Xaviet run.

[jack72]

Keep shooting Paul you made one LOL

[steve]

Fast pace game will kill Dayton with short bench and foul trouble.

[steve]

I luv that PW.....lol

[Flyer 86]

need to go moderate break, half court offense and get Alex, Kavs and CJ the ball

[jack72]

Getting outrebounded by 3 and 10 turnovers, not good

[steve]

24 points in paint for x. Amazing.

[steve]

Agree 86

[steve]

That Williams kid we have is quite the player.....

[jack72]

Only shooting 32%, 10 turnovers and getting outrebounded and beating X!!! Priceless

[DetroitFlyer]

37-32 good guys at the half.

[udx2]

UD up 37 - 32 at the half. Will be an interesting second half.

[jack72]

Any word on Fab's injury? We need him just for depth

[rasta man]

amazing we are up with getting killed in the paint

[FlyerGuyer]

What happened to Frease?!?

Barely played in the first half; zero points, zero rebounds, one turnover, two personal fouls.

I love it.

[Viperstick]

Proud of the guys. Tough environment, X is amped and came to play. Yet we're up 5 at half. PW shrugged off his funk after starting poorly. Just gotta play within themselves, show poise during the inevitable X runs, and protect the ball. X has cranium problems & we have an opportunity. Let's win this!!!!!!

[JimBo]

The biggest thing I see with this Flyer team is that they keep their poise. Their emotions are always in check, while xavier is one big emotional tool bag. And I emphasize the word "tool."

Lyons is just killing their team. He is just one selfish punk.

I wasn't feeling too much confidence on winning this game, but the first half has really fired me up. No reason why we can't win this because we're the better team.

[Canonball]

Xaviers jaws handed UD momentum.

The guys have to come out with edge, play tough D, and clean up the glass. I don't know who's going to hit shots for us because so far it's been brutal to watch. Oliver is playing well the Flyers will need everything they can get from he and Gavs. Paul has got to keep them somewhat honest so that the ball can be entered to Kavs from the wing. That is UD's best offense right now.

[jack72]

PW just 2-8 but leading scorer with 9

Dillard is only 1-6

[46 Chambers Alumni]

need a big second half from CJ, take care of the ball, not rush their threes, and win this thing

[Sea Bass]

Flyers fought hard. The key will be defend, rebound and protect the ball. IMO they will make enough shots.

Alex G player a good half. XU came out fired up but they took the shot and got up and battled

Hit shots and all is well...guaranteed!!!

[jack72]

Luke playing

[jack72]

Oh oh 3 fouls on their star Frease and they are leaving him in

[FlyerFanatic08]

need to survive this run...keep it within striking distance

[DetroitFlyer]

So.... Xavier comes out smoking hot and we look lost. Where is our intensity?

[Flyer 86]

great great game so far. Loving it.

Let's settle down

[Fair34]

Originally Posted by jack72 Oh oh 3 fouls on their star Frease and they are leaving him in

Their star?

[jack72]

I would rather CJ take that shot covered than DO wide open

[DetroitFlyer]

Why do we look dazed and confused?

[steve]

Just impossible to watch this high schoolish ball by UD sometimes. It's like they've never played before in so many stretches.

[Canonball]

One of these games I'm going to track how many fouls our bigs pick up because our guards can't keep anybody in front of them.
