To be honest folks, at this point in the season there aren't too many things to say that haven't been said before. But still, I present to you a little piece about Thursday's game.

I'd be happy with that result! I'm interested to see if GB's young guards can keep playing as well as they have been or if they will hit a wall in the second half of the season.

And meanwhile, those of us who actually know what team Arceneaux plays for will stay over here.

Why the venom, supporter?

Whats with the shot at DMV, we all make a mistake once in a while? Take your shots at Sader03 he is the crazy one, and if you do you might just make his next video.

[govalpogo]

I thought it was a shot at 03.

Yeah, what he said!!

[agibson]

I thought it was a shot at 03.

Yeah, that was my feeling as well.  At least, that's who I'd have been targeting!  DMValpo may have gotten caught in the cross-fire.

I mean,

Seriously?

Dead seriously.

Back to the thread, how difficult will it be to sweep the Wisconsin road trip? Too bad that Milwaukee is the second game, as that is one we can't afford to lose due to tie breaker implications. We definitely have the team to win both, but can we keep the lethargy out?

I'm looking for a double digit win Thursday, and 5 on Saturday.

[valpopal]

Apparently, Valpo is a 2-point underdog for this game. I will hope for an upset:

Valpo  72
Green Bay 68

Didn't UWGB just have someone go down for the season with an ACL tear? How much will that affect how Alec Brown plays inside?

that may well depend on how much he gets beaten around by vucic, just like last time. this is one of those few instances when vucic actually matches up well with somebody.

[agibson]

Didn't UWGB just have someone go down for the season with an ACL tear? How much will that affect how Alec Brown plays inside?

Was it in practice, a couple of days after the Valpo game?  In any case, Daniel Turner (sophomore forward, 6' 6", 220 lbs) scored 11 points on us December 31, tore his ACL, and is out for the season.  He was averaging almost 21 minutes, about 5 ppg and 5 rpg.

Jarvis Williams, senior forward (? at 6'6" 190?), played the first eight games of the season 17 mpg, 5 ppg, and is out for the season with a foot injury.

Looks like it's been a lot of Brown and Cougill since then.  With some help from Mays (6'9" 220  freshman, now playing 10-15 mpg, up a bit) and a little from Heuer (6'9" 237 sophomore).  But, it's got to mean they're going small more often.

[agibson]

To avoid starting a new thread, I'll tangent a bit:

Too bad that Milwaukee is the second game

Speaking of Milwaukee, I saw that there's a student bus planned for the Milaukee game.  $15 gets you a ride to Milwaukee, breakfast on the bus, a ticket, and back by 7:00 PM.  Not a bad deal!

Turner actually tore his ACL during the Valpo game.

Obviously the video is pretty d#$% funny, so I don't really know if your being serious about this "experts only" chat or forum.  Who will be checking the resumes and defining the qualification? Maybe you would not meet my standard of an "expert".  I think things are fine just the way they are on the forum.  I don't really think we are boring anyone.

Valpo 76
Green Bay 69

Hopefully Brown doesn't dominate us like he did last year.

[historyman]

Valpo 60
Green Bay 75

[VUfan]

VU 72 UWGB 67  Brown gets his points but he works hard for then and we cut off the inside out passes. my hope!
