A solid effort from start to finish for App. If we play like we did tonight and cut down on the turnovers, I like our chances tomorrow night. What a game from Kellen Brand - career high 37 points, 7 boards. Great leadership and intensity all night long - great to see him finish his career up so strong. ONE MORE GAME APPS!

For wofford to win they have to keep app under 70 i would think. wofford should win if they keep app in the 50s imo. ft shooting is our achilles heal

The top seeds in both tourneys have advanced to the finals. UTC and Samford split their season series with each team winning at home. UTC beat Samford 9 days ago in the Roundhouse.

App and Wofford men only played once, way back in early December in Sparkle City. App escaped with a 67-66 victory between two teams who were struggling at the time.

Monday, March 8 @ Time Warner Cable Arena

Game 10: Women's Championship Game, #1 Chattanooga vs #2 Samford, 5:00 pm (SportSouth, ESPN360.com)
Game 11: Men's Championship Game, (N1) Appalachian State vs (S1) Wofford, 9:00 pm (ESPN2, ESPN360.com).

Gotta tell you though, the attendance for ASU/El Cid was nearly of high school proportions - we had some elderly CofC fans behind us, so a lot of the crowd weren't even there for our game. :ohno:
Yeah, it was good to meet you man. Had great seats at the game last night, one more win and we're dancing! Go APPS!

ASU's size concerns me...they present some matchup problems for our smaller forwards inside...I think that in order for Wofford to win, we must shoot well from the outside...someone needs to step up (you hear me, Junior?)

I am convinced that we have the two best teams in the SoCon playing for a ticket to the Big Dance. Win or lose, it has been a historical season for the Terriers in D-1. And we know we are headed to postseason play, which is very good for our school. I don't think our seniors want the NIT, though, and I predict that Junior Salters will have a big game.

bout time some Wofford peeps got here. All of the schools who have never been to the NCAAs that had good shots either being a 1 seed or in the title game, Lipscomb, Stony Brook, William & Mary have lost or are losing. Wofford needs to break this trend tonight

trust me I understand your frustration and would agree that probably 1/2 the calls you complain about are valid but there are a couple that I see App fans on TV complaining about that are clear fouls IMO

Agree...there always are...& as I edited above, it isn't the refs fault that Sims & Brand combined for 2 pts in the 1st half...sorry for the rant...

None taken...do the commentators lose credibility when they mispronounce appalachian and initially mistake the state simms is from?
