Live Game Thread: Gonzaga at Loyola Marymount

That’s exactly what I thought last year, but was wrong. It’s a long conference season.

This link almost always has the games, you can also check GU boards for other links.

But I like winning more

Even though you didn’t list it, I like those ones. Plus the old white ones were cool too. I liked the black a lot last year but am getting tired of them. Too bad we don’t have Oregon’s football budget and get new, weird uniforms each game.

and had any aspirations whatsoever of playing at the next level, I would be puttin on a show if the Lakers General Manager were in the house, and he is….but that’s apparently just me.

Nice effing play Few had set up to close the half, eh?!

But, looking forward to enjoying it later. :o)

Destroyed the confidence

Yes, I said Portland. Peaks and valleys is right, as {Mattzag72} said above!

We destroyed Portland at home by 40. St. Mary’s whips us by 21, yet struggles to get by lowly Portland at home (69-61).

Just reminds us that it’s a long season, and yes, if St. Mary’s can play like that vs Portland how will they fare on the road at… BYU or GU?

Let’s give the guy more of a chance before we run him out of town….He’s a talented, athletic juco who needs some time, like most do, to get up to D1 speed. He’s only had a few games to get caught up w/ the rest of the team who’ve been playing together for like 3 months.

I agree he is sucking right now….But, give it a lil more time, he will adjust.

or his injured knee? Thumb? Down on himself because he wants to be doing better? That kind of stuff? You might be on to something, lol.

But serously… Sacre is banged up. He can still play, just not at his usual level, yet.

“It was evident he was ready to go before the game. He was the only player on either team wearing his game jersey (no shooting shirt) and game shorts (no sweats) during the Star Spangled Banner.”

“He finished with eight points, six boards and a pair of blocks. He was in foul trouble most of the second half after picking up a couple of fouls that looked questionable, one away from the ball and another as he gathered an offensive rebound.”

"He was very active (against LMU)," Few said. "We had some talks and he had a good practice Friday night. We tried to get him back engaging. For whatever reason he kind of lost his way the last two weeks. We just want him getting back down there and engaging people in the post."

"He told me to be more aggressive," Sacre said. "The calls weren’t going my way tonight, but I’m not going to argue with that. We had to keep battling through and me being aggressive helped the team out. (Few) told me if I’m more aggressive, it’ll help the team out even if I’m not getting the ball."

Sacre was back in his role as the leader in the locker room, giving Pangos all kinds of grief for wanting to get a cat for a pet. (Sacre has two dogs, but he had no luck swaying Pangos’ decision."

and say that. He worked his tail off last night and if you re-watch the game and focus on Rob this should become clearer to you.

It might help if he was getting clean entry passes.Over and over he kept gaining position and the passes either did not come, or were too late.

He had 2 very questionable calls go against him which forced him to back off on defense. He had a very good game considering he is not 100% and the bad calls, read his stat lines too while you’re at it.

from the selection committee.

If we get three I will be amazed. Why put in a WCC team when you can stick in another big market eastern seaboard team.
