UMES Gamethread

[eepstein0]

Hopefully this looks nothing like the last game

[angrychicken]

What's a umes?

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

What's a umes?

it's the bassline that brody drops after he does sex on rene in the elevator (1:39 of the attached)



bonus for the nerds - the goops version of buttercup is played during the sexual intercourse part of the encounter

[twballgame9]

I though Kevin Smith only did horror/art pieces about walruses. Like the season prediction thread.

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

whereas tusk was bad (from what i've heard), yoga hosers was worse (from what i've heard), and moose jaws is destined to be the worst of the three (from what i can imagine).

i was excited at the prospect of a mallrats sequel but since he couldn't sell it to anyone and is now shopping it as a series, i am far less excited

UMES lost a barnburner to GW to start their season in which they cut a 19 point second half deficit before losing by 4. Kinda sounds like our heroes against Nicholls. We also apparently got waxed by GW in the "secret scrimmage".

All told, should be a competitive one.

I think BC rolls in this one, motivated by that mess on Friday.

I have lots of beer in my hotel room in case this does not occur

[BCEagles25]

We have promising guard play, too bad Garland Owens and Conor Tava are considered power forwards on this team. Imagine for a second what'll happen when this team plays somebody with a player 6'7 and over.

I believe Vegas has the spread as Even.

[BCSUPERFAN22]

the shot when the game came on air on WatchESPN is getting great shot of "crowd", wow

[ILikeBC]

AJ Turner is very good at basketball.

[ILikeBC]

To be fair about the crowd, I think there is a t-storm

[eepstein0]

Hey we look like a division 1 basketball team!

Lord Bowman looks bad out there

[Onyx Blackman]

I briefly felt good about how the team looked until Popovic was rejected by the bottom of the backboard and then Bowman missed a three by six feet. UMASS isn't very good.

This team only lost to GW by 4

[eepstein0]

That's an embarrassing charge call

[BCSUPERFAN22]

Ive been fairly impressed by what Ive seen from Graves so far (full disclosure I missed game 1)

[eepstein0]

No complaints so far keep this up

[ILikeBC]

Popovic is TERRIBLE. He'll need 2 years.

[eepstein0]

Popovic is TERRIBLE. He'll need 2 years.

He's significantly better than some of the freshman bigs we've had here recently

[ILikeBC]

Popovic is TERRIBLE. He'll need 2 years.

He's significantly better than some of the freshman bigs we've had here recently

His shots either (a) get rejected by the bottom of the rim, or (b) are so far off they look like passes

[ILikeBC]

At least we can score for once.

[twballgame9]

Pop is fine. Tava missing layups is not okay. He looks like Raji.

Like Graves and Bowman. Pop looks good. Turner is much more aggressive. Too small up front but this is a lot better.

And the opponent is far better

[MilitantEagle]

What's with the replays during game action? Driving me crazy.

I believe they're using the scoreboard feed.

Last year we had real broadcasts

[twballgame9]

It's fine on espn

[eepstein0]

No more 3s Garland

To this point, Jeffers has done a decent job creating shots close to the basket, he just doesnt seem to be making many
