One hour before tip off of the first round game. Got my philly and fries and a cold beer at Mr. Spots and heading over to AA for the last time to watch a men's game. We started our championship run this past Saturday and we continue it tonight. Sorry guys, not reading a childrens book tonight. That only works for hockey. Go Falcons.
My prediction. BG 76. NIU 58

GO BG!!! I like the Falcons to win 67-60....closer than we'd like but at this time of the year, just win.

Calhoun has 13 pts and 5 or 6 rebounds in the first 8 minutes. He brought his game tonight. Thomas has 5 assists already as well.
BG 20 NIU 15

Wow, this game is way to close for comfort. NIU comes in having lost 9 of 11 and is without its star player and we needed a three before the horn to keep from trailing at the half. We built a seven point lead but let it get away from us. We have a ballgame here. Come on Falcons. Make this final 20 minutes in Anderson Arena count!

And Scott Thomas tweaked his ankle going for a ball. He is noticeably limping. Hopefully they can tape it up and he can continue.

WOW!!! What a dunk by Calhoun!!!!! Best I seen in years. AC has 25 points and we still have 8 min left. He may get 30

Hey Freak. Look at my prediction from the first post in the thread. I said BG by 18. At the last media time out we are up by 19. I almost have the score correct. Shall I predict the WMU game too

. I cannot predict UT games apparently. GO FALCONS

Nice to finally run away with a game too! This was our first real blowout of a D-I program all season and it couldn't come at a better time.
