Since we didn't have a FG in the last 2:30, I'd say we scored 3 points in that 7:15.

[swellafelon]

Close. We scored 4.

So far this season we've come out strong to start the second half. Let's hope the pattern continues.

[GoRamblers]

Doyle with 4 turnovers. Yuck.

[JCT]

This is kind of an important game. If we win, we likely face Ole Miss (and maybe NC State or Creighton), we get on TV, our RPI goes way up, and we have a chance at a title of a decent MTE. If we lose, we don't get any TV games, we face probably Oral Roberts and Montana, and we have a chance to leave the Virgin Islands with a 1-3 record against Division I teams with our next game AT NC State.

[GoRamblers]

We're playing faster in the second half and it seems to be frustrating SJU

[GoRamblers]

First media timeout. Down 39-35.

[Blers]

Surprised/concerned Granic/Kirby aren't getting back in to give our bigs some time to breathe. Granic was in when we went on our run to take the lead.

[GoRamblers]

Richardson with 3 fouls.

[GoRamblers]

Scoreless in the last 3+ minutes.

Time for Doyle to turn on the jets and take over the game
