Don't forget - the girls blew a 10 point half time lead against Texas A$M Friday night!

I think the girls losing a 10 point lead to a team ranked #11 in the country is a little different than losing an 18 point lead to Southern.

Did SU fans come out to the game? I heard them yelling in the radio broadcast.

Doherty referred to the crowd as if he was pleasantly surprised - said he thouht we had about 3,000. Listening to the radio broadcast, they sure didn't make much noise. I assume Southern brought a few and there may have been some Alabama State people there, as well?

Southern did have a handful of fans. But, there was one guy in Section N - I never heard any one person make as much noise as he did. He was a one-man cheering machine. Believe it or not, he made most of the sound you heard for the visitors.

He was 4 rows behind me, and his stamina was unreal! I have never heard, or seen anything like it before, everybody wanted to kill him. What a butthole.

So how did he get a seat in N as it is supposedly sold out. Must have grabed an empty seat.

Also, for those who weren't there, Delisha wills was dominating A&M in the first half and was the main reason we built that lead. She got injured late in the first half. She tried to play through it but she could barely jog and had no lift in her legs. If she had been 100% it was a different second half.

A loss is a loss. I am excited about the girl's potential, but the loss didn't move us any closer to being a top 25 team just as the men's team's loss didn't help their cause.

Actually, that SU fan sat in the seat of a friend of mine. It was on the fifth row. He and about five others, apparently family members, got there early and found six seats to sit in. When my friend got there, knowing the game would not be a sell-out, just sat with me two rows back to avoid making those people move. The SU fan was not vulgar or unsportsmanlike. He was just extremely LOUD.

I STILL have " Uh Oh you did it, now you gonna get it" ringing in my ears.

It was actually kind of amusing until we lost the lead :(
