vs. Utah Valley (12/6)

Post by mbenecke »

After a huge win at Kansas State, our Falcons (6-2) return to the Stroh for a matchup against Utah Valley (5-2). The game will be on Saturday, December 6th at 1:00pm, and will be available to stream on ESPN+.

Utah Valley is a really good program. They were 25-9 last year. They’re 73rd in the NET rankings, and we’re 63rd. They’re 90th in the Kenpom, and we’re 108th. Should be a pretty great matchup at the Stroh this weekend. Here’s hoping we avoid a letdown spot and come out ready to play.

Go Falcons!

Really excited for this one. Don't know if we'll make the Sunday game, so I'm quite glad we're playing the real team on Saturday.

Note: Utah Valley U. is where Charlie Kirk was shot.

"6-7" promotion for this game. Buy a ticket and get one free for the 7th vs. Aquinas.

As most probably expected we are reverting to the mean. This might just be a streaky team this year. Hopefully they peak when it matters most.

Also, where are our fans? The attendance on tv looks terrible.

Yeah this UVU team is really good, but we have gotten ruffin and towns a few 3 looks that were wide open and they're barely catching rim let alone making them.

But you're right, really disappointed in the turnout here.

Also disappointed by the crowd.

BG down 8 with 16 minutes to go in the 2nd half. We’re hanging in this thing. Need to knock down open looks when we get them.

When you are 1-12 from 3pt. land, quit shooting 3's.

Program has had enough Lucy pulling the football moments over the years that casuals aren't going to get excited over one road P4 win. You can add today's game to the list.

Down 16 at the next media timeout. Just playing very sloppy and without any energy.

Ugly game. Down 21 with 8 to go. Just not competitive at all in the 2nd half.

Pathetic effort on both sides of the floor this half

Shades of last year. They've got a get right game tomorrow but that's no consolation

You can't play like against a good team and expect a better result. We really let our shooting dictate the rest of our game
