Pregame: packed and loud. Are you sure this isn’t the NCAA’s? 80% Zags fans.
1st half:
15:22 – GU 11, SM 2 – Gonzaga is full attack mode. St Marys are on their heels. Why can’t Simpson abuse the wiry Daye in the post?
11:29 – GU 17, SM 11 – Saint Marys settling down. Gonzaga scores at will. Mills has to show up.
7:28 – GU 24, SM 15 – Gaels might not be able to keep up. Zags have some tooly fans, won’t stop me from rushing the court with them.
3:31 – GU 27, SM 22 – Gaels hanging around. Zags have slowed up a bit. Need to continue to attack.
Halftime – Gonzaga has this in the bag at it’s current pace. Too many shooters. Need to go down low if you are Saint Mary’s. The Gael will eat your face off.
2nd Half:
17:13. – Game over. See you on the court.
Pregame: The return of Patrick Mills. Portland had an easy go vs Pepperdine. Will have stiffer competition tonight. St Marys warm ups say “March is a brotherhood”. Pretty cool.
15:26 1st / SMC 7 – POR 8: Patrick Mills checked in at 16:25. Looks good. Portland is game so far. St Mary’s is huge with Simpson up front. Mobile for how big he is.
11:07 1st / SMC 13 – POR 15: Hegarty is a crazy huge German C for Portland. Watching him interact with his team is odd. He’s a load.
7:36 1st / SMC 17 – POR 16: Some good defense by the Gaels for that last stretch. Slower pace for Portland compared to last night.
3:57 1st / SMC 20 – POR 21: Zone giving the Gaels fits. Ravio needs more touches for Portland
Halftime: SMC 24 – POR 24: Sloppy half of hoops. Portland has some spunk, and Saint Marys looks lost – not what I remembered. If you can see in the middle is a Gael with a cape and huge fake hair. Scarey.
15:45 2nd / SMC 28 – POR 28: More missed shots. Game is up for grabs, waiting for someone to take over. I call Ravio.
11:54 2nd / SMC 38 – POR 39: Pace has picked up. Ravio should have the ball in his hands down the stretch for the pilots. It seems the Gaels keep tripping on themselves.
7:20 2nd / SMC 50 – POR 47: going to go down to the wire. SMC pushing the ball into the paint. Finally. Oh, Tark had to leave early. Probably has some cheese sandwiches waiting at home.
3:51 2nd / SMC 57 – POR 51: six point lead might be enough in this one going down the stretch.
Final: St. Mary’s 71 – Portland 61: Giving everybody the semi marquee matchup tomorrow night. Check back, I’ll do this again.
Check back for some in game updates, if I can figure this thing out. Updates at time outs.
Pregame – Kenel club is out in full force, and Gonzaga has too many male cheerleaders. Ronny Turiaf hates attention. Tark the shark is sitting courtside in a huge orange Bill Cosby sweater.
18:41 1st – I was just on tv.
15:47 1st – Broncos need the hot shooting. They won’t dominate down low tonight.
11:27 1st – A ref from Spokane just bailed out Santa Clara. Missed Bronco shots = transition hoops for fast athletic teams. Gotta get back.
7:51 – WCC POTY John Bryant earns no respect from Zags fans. He can’t get any touches. SC hanging on with a nice drive and a 3 to bring the score to 25 – 19.
3:57 1st GU 35 – SC 25: 10 points seems about right. Bryant being managed by the Zags. SC band playing DMX is offputting.
Halftime GU 48 / SCU 27: Quite the flurry for Pargo and crew to end the half. SC is outmatched. Doug Christie loves lime green shirts.
15:13 2nd / GU 59 – SC 34: Pargo could have put it away. Pat Riley is now sitting courtside.
11:05 2nd / GU 65 – SC 39: Both teams going through the motions. Ruff Ryder anthem again. Broncos are about to “roll” onto the bus and head home.
7:32 2nd / GU 74 – SC 43: Josh Hyetvelt has a sweet tribal arm band.
3:36 2nd / GU 87 – SC 49: Austin Daye looks like he is 14 years old. 28 points says otherwise.
Final Score: GU 94 – SC 59.’Nuff said
