This team continues to win the games they are supposed to, no matter where they are played but can't beat the "good" teams on their schedule. Would love to see them win out in the regular season and earn the 4th seed but without Boopie I don't like our chances. Yes that game last night was sloppy but have to give these guys credit; when Cal fought back and tied the game, they really responded and did what they needed to put the game away down the stretch.

On a personal note, I'm really glad our quest to join a power conference turned out the way it did. I never liked playing in Pacific Time while in the WAC and as an east coast resident, I'm not fond of 11:00 pm starts that keep me up until 1:30. Glad we aren't doing that on a regular basis

Pony Pride, did you make the trip out West? Great updates.

Strong shooting, including over 50% from three. 18 turnovers to 12. I don’t think Boopie is coming back.

If Boopie's injury is season ending, my expectation is that this team makes an early exit from both the ACC Tourney and the NIT. This team might be good enough to win a game in the ACC Tourney and a game or two in the NIT but this has not been a bad 1st season for Enfield considering we returned just 3 players from last year's NIT caliber roster.

I did not. Watched at home, where I include specific plays but also track some stats, trends, etc. — nerdy stuff.

Join in the game thread Saturday (4 p.m. Central) for the Stanford game!
