We're hoping for zero. Keep it up.

I hope

How do we know who won that one? (I thought no scores were to be given.) I wouldn't base anything on an exhibition game. Should be a fun year for you guys. Nothing better than watching young talent develop and grow into a team. Better get to the Clink early the day of NU-CU to get those standing room only tickets. Serious question:does NU sell any standing room for their games? It is fun watching monkeys flinging poo. I remember Casey the Ape used to fling it at zoo visitors.

We might need your help through the year on how to handle rude awakenings. Maybe not, though. Let the games begin!

I liked the Eagles when Randy Meisner was still in the band.

Who's that; Larry the cable guy?? Good luck tonight and enjoy the opening of the new arena.

Cool story. Thanks for noticing. I saw where the Iowa players were frustrated with the calls in their exhibition game last night. Wasn't Delaney one who was pushing for the change?

The refs called a foul just about every time someone used their hands to guard last night at the Jays game. The Jays did a great job of not using their hands and playing team defense. But, it got me thinking (believe it or not); it seems that if a player is a great driver and is good at getting to the hoop, that there may be very little that someone can do to stop them. (Of course the Jays had trouble with this when they could use their hands, so they might be OK.) What are some others thoughts on this? (It might be easier to think about after your exhibition game.)

Hope Grant Gibbs sees this.... Luckily there is no hand-checikng this year.

+100 Let basketball begin. Sold out arenas in both Omaha and Lincoln. We're not just a football state anymore.

Could happen again this year. After all, that's why they play the games.

That's what people on sport's boards do. Most "too involved" fans for any team will say whatever to make their team look great and to make other teams look "less than great." Plus they only really know about their team or the other local team that the local press will cover. In other words, to answer your question, "Who knows!?"

I wouldn't worry about it. You guys are just as much experts as they are.

I don't think I said that he was the best point guard in the nation. (Although most mid-major leagues, like the Valley, are heavy with good guards.) I also said that he "could" start for any team. And Cousin, you are right, there are some teams (the elite) that he might not start for. (But he might. Imagine what type of a point guard he could be if he had the other four Kentucky starters on the floor with him.) Royalfan, you are right, some good teams will be coming to Omaha this year. Should be a great time. Single game tickets go on sale tomorrow.
