Common opponent is St. Francis of Brooklyn.  They beat them 68-46.  We beat them 76-70.
 
This is probably best team Fordham has had in 10 years which is not saying much. Need to whack them tomorrow.
 
This is another game where if we dont bring our A game, we are going to be in a battle.  If we overlook or cant get up for Fordham tom, this is going to be the NJIT game all over again.

To me, if they lose this game it’s a total disaster and if they win it’s, so what big deal it’s Fordham.
 
Hope we have a good crowd.   I think the advantage of having played these close games is that your guys get experience having to outplay your opponent in key late possessions, which we've done in our otherwise subpar play wins.

No excauses about traffic or parking on a sunday night at CA.  with low priced tix and free parking if our students show up we should have a real homecourt advantage. 

FWIW efforts are being made to keep the shirtless dudes engaged at all home games.  Our athletic department are working their butts off to give us a real homecourt advantage.  I hope that we get a decent number from Friday's crowd to show up.     

Bishop Brennan celebrating Mass on campus at 530 pm.    Plenty of time to get to game.

We've just got to end CA being a nice quiet place for opponents to play

Might be worth a little taste on the moneyline
Fordham +775. Not a bad gamble. I could see us putting it together and winning by 30, or losing the game. I'm torn. 
 
Who knows ,based on our previous performance I would stay away from the gamble. Still reeling of the poor showing against Kansas 
This game could be a turning point if we lose ,how we perceive coach  There is so many things in their Game that need to be fixed. Comes down to can the coach do it and do we have the talent to address it


 
 
Think we'll win, but this Fordham team is not a Neubauer coached team.  

Kyle Neptune is doing well over there.  In looking at stats though, they basically ride w/ 5 guys getting 30-37 min each

Perfect opportunity to press them hard early and throughout.
 
Fordham turns the ball over (more turnovers than assists) and has not shot it well from 3 (just under 31% as a team) so the type of team we should feast off.  If we don't beat them soundly, something's wrong.

Lost to fordham and went 12- 6 in a very good big east.  Beat Conn who i think went on to win NCAA me think. Steve was left a very good team that year.
