11 turnovers in first half cut down to 4 in 2H

Brown didn’t play much. Hurt? Still working back into shape?

Mounce was having a tough game until the play of the day in college sports.

Rafferty. What an effort. He’s going to have a monster Sr year. Coach said he had his best offseason he’s ever had, finally fully healthy.

Gurley has soooo much potential. He’ll be very good for us.

Great experience rallying back from down 12 on the road to a top team. That will help us win games in Feb and March.

Noticed Pugh didn’t play after logging decent minutes vs BJU.

And this will be great PR for FU.

WHAT AN AMAZING WIN. I’m over in England and watched online, game started at 1AM and it’s now almost 4AM and I’m still jacked up!

The win moved us up from #146 to #133 in Pomeroy’s rankings, and if you go by his purely quantitative analytical view it’s our biggest win since we defeated Vanderbilt 70-62 in 2007....they wer #43 at the time. He has Loyala currently at #68.

Excellent win. We can be no less than .500 against last years final 4 teams after next Saturday. 1.000 would be sweeter.

Hurley, Hunter, Lyons and Rafferty all with 4 fouls with 2:03 left - and they gutted it out. Very mature performance, especially on the road.

Great win!! Rafferty was sensational down the stretch. Love the way Lyons looks to shoot. He may not make them all but he ain't skeered. What happened to Andrew Brown? I think he went down hard and went out of the game but came back in and then hardly played at all in the second half. Hope he is ok. Go Paladins!!

Wow! What a huge win. I didn't get to see it live and then I saw the final score. Looking forward to re-watching now.

Can’t stop watching that video!

Next time you do, keep your eyes on Coach Richey! See how high he jumps.

Make ESPN in the finish of the night segment. Also was the #2 play in the Top Ten. Basketball is the route to national prominence in college sports. Go Paladins. Fans need to show up on Tuesday night vs Gardner Webb.

G News coverage. https://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/ ... 950450002/
National prominence? Really?

Biggest in 11 years.
Glad Vandy lost to MTSU last night.
