#1 Furman vs. Mercer (March 4th 12pm SoCon Quarterfinals)

[apaladin]

Don’t like this matchup. The law of averages in MU’s favor since FU owns a 17 gane win streak against them, plus MU had a practice game tonight, Really didn’t have to break a sweat so fatigue will not be a factor. They will be loose with nothing to lose.

Michael Jordan has beaten me 28 straight times we’ve played 1 on 1 By the law of averages I should win next time we play.

Yes you should and MJ is getting old. MJ is overrated anyway. Be patient, take him to the rim, you got this!

You’ll be fine after the guys loosen-up & make their first run. Meantime, don’t clinch!

I resemble that. !!! And I am. We only won by 3 last time. Take nothing for granted. Stay loose but play hard as balls

[furpop16]

Geez. Way too many MU offensive rebounds & put-backs. They're ahead by 2 with 2min left in the 1H 30-28. C'mon Furman !!!

Slaw got lucky on that call. Should have been his third.

All of the little things are killing us, especially giving up offensive rebounds and missing free throws.

Need to turn it around NOW!

This is good practice. CBR said the guys need to get comfortable in close games. Settle down, guys, and take it to 'em 2nd half.

Guys need to step it up. They are getting outplayed on the boards and having a bad FT shooting game thus far. We are playing like a tired team that had a first round game, not Mercer.

I’m effing clinching

Covid is keeping me at home. I am more nervous watching the game on tv there is I was there. Sick nervous already. Might as well go ahead and drink some Pepto.

POY needs to pick it up in 2nd Half. 3 points, 1 rebound and several defensive lapses.

We do look tired and slow, playing into their rhythm. We have zero fast break points. Guys need to wake up now and take over. Don’t let Mercer stay in the game to the end. Start fast. Don’t let up. Finish strong.
