Look out for Samford. They can beat UNCG.
Said this earlier, but I'd much rather face Mercer than whichever team came out of the Samford/Citadel matchup. Mercer is more consistent than those teams, but probably isn't as dangerous as either of those two can be on any given night.

Wofford immediately jumped to a 10-0 lead in the first half which they extended to as much as 22, but VMI came back and cut it to 8. Magee hit his first three pointer of the game at the buzzer to give the Terriers a 48-37 halftime lead. The first 5 minutes of the second half could be key to this game. If VMI can continue to cut into the margin Wofford could be sweating.

No sweat for W in 2nd half.

That’s most fans for one team I have ever seen at SoCon. Impressive by W fans.

Maybe Davidson with Curry or ETSU’s 4 year run of championships? Anyway, they turned out. On Saturday no less. Place will be slam full if it’s etsu v W. Etsu also with a bunch of fans here.

And so we shall see as ETSU holds-off Chatt 64-68. My money's on ETSU fans in the battle of the stands. They're tougher.

Samford has a hand full of fans here. Sad.

I really don't see it as sad just a fact. Not many peeps are going to drive 7 hours, spend money on a 7th place team that has little to no chance of winning.

I’m telling you, this is a good team. They can beat UNCG.

I think they are a good team and certainly capable of beating any of the SoCon teams.

Don't look now, but Samford is up by twelve at the half: 43-31

Surprised there are no video boards in this arena.

You should have seen the place before it was renovated!

Samford got away from their inside game. Sharkey is a ball hog.

Its a dump. Always has been.
I couldn't disagree more. I really like the arena. Having the concourse be in front on the upper tier seating is a flaw, but I've always been impressed with how nicely the place was finished: high grade materials.
