Anyone Watching SEMO@Murray St.

It's on ESPNU

Murray St. could be off, but they do not look nearly as good as the #9 ranking indicates.

They are currently losing 27-18 w/7:37 left in the 1st.

Too bad WSU didn't get them because if you have decent post players at all, this team can be easily handled. At least that is the way they are looking right now.

After the way CU whipped us last night, they are easily the better team of the two in my opinion.

I hope Murray State loses, would take some luster off that matchup and hurt ESPN's ratings for that game atleast a little....

Yip, I'm watching. Rooting for SEMO.

I agree. I commented after the pairings were announced when WSU fans were so disappointed in not getting murray that it would be funny if they lost a couple before the bracketbusters.

Wouldn't that be something if Murray State ended up losing prior to Bracket Buster?

That may even be why WSU didn't get them - Because ESPN knew that it might not be much of a game.

Well, that was fun while it lasted...

ESPN pushed the Buffalo Wild Wings button.

Of course, Murray state wins 81-73. And for those interested in other teams we're not playing in Bracket Buster, Oral Roberts lost tonight to South Dakota State.

Once Murray St. picked up the "D" and started hitting "shots" it became rather easy for them (amazing what happens when shots fall). They could sure shoot the 3, but looked below average when not hitting.
