Game is on Wednesday on ESPNU at 7pm.

Just get a win and move on to the HUGE game on Saturday against Louisville.

I think the UCF can give UC some trouble with their interior play, they've got this huge kid that is built like a smart car. He could be trouble.

Cincinnati will pull away late.

Cincinnati 71, Central Florida 64.

I'm trying to remember to when we played them at home if he was the guy that just threw his weight around but wasn't very skilled. If so, JJ needs to watch his fouls and hope the refs call that guy for a few instead. Hopefully Mick can chirp in their ears from the start to watch what he does down low.

I can't wait NTS. I live in Orlando...so I finally get to see my favorite team play in real life. I wanted to go to USF but had other obligations...it broke my heart.

I have a friend here with some connections so I am going all out on this ticket. I know I will be on the box level but not sure if it's a private box or open box. What I do know is that it's the only place you can get drinks in the arena.

Let's re-consider watching a game at the Shoe for a moment. I think at some point in time I heard UC was one of only about 5 on campus facilities to serve alcohol at BB and FB games. College students can appreciate that:D
 
UCF just won their first game since Jan 4 yesterday, ending a 9-game losing streak. Yeah, it's in their arena, but we SHOULD win by double digits. Other than some solid rebounders, they are a bad team, pure and simple. Been a while since we've seen our guys play 40 minutes of great basketball. Hopefully that happens Wednesday.

This is a classic TRAP game for the Cats. Gotta make sure we come out focused and get the job done and we can't start looking ahead to Louisville until after we secure the W
 
We have no more "comfort" games left this year. No more at home games against the bottom tier of the AAC. We are either on the road, against a top 5 team in the conference, or in a tourney.


Here are the over under numbers I would be content with...


3 regular season wins

1 conference tourney win

2 NCAA tourney wins


Anything above these number I would be extremely happy with. Anything less I would be disappointed. First up UCF...I will finally get to see these guys play in person.
 
I think the main issue of this game that no one has addressed....we have to suffer through two hours of basketball on that awful court! I'm tired of these schools that want to be different with their courts.

With that said, I think UC comes out and handles their business and leaves with a win. Road conference games should never be taken lightly (SMU at Temple. And UC at Temple for that matter), but I think UC will learn from the SMU game and go down there ready to take names. I imagine UC will be a double digit favorite for what it's worth.
 
UCF is a pretty good offensive rebounding team limiting their second chances should be a key. I'm going with 71-61 Cats - JL, TC, & KJ get some good minutes in this one.
 
The one game I have a completely unskippable exam night class! I might actually die.
 
When you're coming to the bitter end of a 5 year program working a full time job, you take whatever slot you can get to just finish it!

I'm watched games via streaming in night classes before ESPN locked it down, and exams make it tough. Wednesday night games are always the ones that get me, too. Don't stations usually fill their late night Wednesday slot with programming nobody cares about? Hmm...

Is Watch ESPN not free on the campus anymore? I was about to take a night class on Tuesday/Thursday but I realized that all the big games were on Thursday's during that time so I switched it to the 9:00 am. The things I do for the Cats!

I almost made that sacrifice by quitting my job thus having time to take the daytime class slot but then I realized I need money for food and if I do not have food I will die and if I'm dead I cannot watch the cats, so I had to split the difference and deal with it. I will be mentally sending my energy to Orlando though, as usual!
 
Vegas has the Cats 6 1/2

Kind of suprised alittle by this but anyways its game day lets's come out strong on these guys SK and JJ doing their things. Would love to see a double digit scoring coming out of GG but the man tonight I'm going with is Rubles close to a double double.

CATS-68
KNIGHTS-60

Thank-you. I laughed at this a little this morning. Your dedication is awesome.

However, remember if you are not focused in class you may fail it. If you fail it you may not graduate. If you don't graduate you may get a low paying job on the night shift at UDF. If you work night shift at UDF you won't be able to watch the cats or be able to donate them money. If you can't donate them money the Shoe will never get replaced or updated. If the Shoe does not get replaced or updated we will lose Mick. If we lose Mick it is all you fault!

Have a great day and good luck on your exam. We are counting on you. Don't screw it up.
