A couple of Thursday night teams going at it.

Listening to Mike Reis on SIU Radio. Haha.

Drake by 6. Reis is not happy.

With SIU or with the officials? Drake's announcers are so pissed at the officiating that they're calling out one of the officials by name (Scott Thornley).

Specifically Scott Thornley.

A couple of moments ago:

Reis: "What is Thornley trying to call? He just pointed at his knee twice"
Color guy: "I guess it was a foul on Van Deest. He gave us a forty-five"
Reis: "They say its a one-and-one, and Southern isn't in the bonus. If that's a foul on Van Deest, that's his third, fifth, fourth...."

Before that:

Reis: "The official on the baseline didn't blow that, but Scott Thornley did from 30 feet behind the play"

Interesting that both sets of announcers are bitching about the same ref. Guy must be brutal.

Tie game at 54. 90 seconds left. A DU player just fouled out, didn't catch the name. TO Drake.

Bulldogs try to give the game away, but hang on to win 61-56.

[pafan]

DU gets its 5th straight win at SIU arena, and 8th straight overall against the Ugly Dawgs. 61-56.

First commercial after the game advertises $27.99 cartons of cigs.

Amazing how far SIU has fallen....Mark Phelps is 5-0 in Carbondale.
