I was able to take in the majority of two games last night as the Global Sports Classic held here in Las Vegas winds up to its final games tonight. Florida State vs Cincinnati and UNLV vs California. California basically ran UNLV from the start with 3 point shooting and good defense. Refs had a few bad calls at the end which squashed a Rebel comeback, but thats beside the point. UNLV goes against Cincinnati tonight, with California and Florida State facing off for the championship of the Global Sports Classic.
Note to Las Vegas Basketball organizers. The Las Vegas Invitational is currently being held here in town at the same time as the Global Sports Classic. Why would you do this? Stagger them. Two different weekends. I would like to go to both. Thanks.
Western Michigan is coming to town December 14th. Special thanks to my lady friend and her parents for arranging our travel plans to allow us to be back in town to catch this game vs UNLV. I will be away for a week in December, but could not stand to miss this game.
Speaking of the Broncos, here’s to hoping they wake up soon and pull out a few non con games. Something tells me they are looking forward to the comfort of the conference schedule and the chance to start again. Trips to the tourney do not come easily.
More hoops today. I know these tourneys are a sham, but I just can’t help but get into it as its the beginning of the season, and whats not to love? It is basketball.
