Almost time

[Lawson]

Just paid for my tickets

I got my tickets as well. Was a bit of a painful process with the Convention Center, but it all finally worked out. Also went and watched the boys play UK. Wasn't proud of the outcome, but seeing some of the new guys had me excited for the season.

And speaking of the season...it's here! A team with this much experience doesn't have any reason to have a sluggish start, so here's hoping we come out hot.

[Lawson]

Well, two losses to start the year...both close. Not sure how good the Lincoln is...but oh well....first home game tomorrow....I'll be there, ready for another season.

I think its the 65th straight season my family has had the exact same two seats.....I think we'll get the win tomorrow (if not there's a problem)

For being picked to be the GMAC champion in the preseason poll, not good to drop two to GLVC teams. Have to do better. Indy is always pretty good. Lincoln? I am not sure they are good in anything. I saw they beat Wayne State, but Wayne State is usually middle of the pack in the GLIAC.

Need to pick it up. Quickly. Regional losses hurt badly when it comes to tournament selection and post-season seeding. Already digging a hole.

That was a pretty fun game to be at

Pretty good win streak for the Panthers

Pretty good win streak for the Panthers

Looking pretty good right now. Anytime you grab some on the road wins it is a plus. Not sure who all they play home and home, but Hillsdale, Findlay, and Walsh will be challenges.

9 straight wins….KWC might be okay again

[pantherfan]

Make that 10! Looked awful in the 1st half vs Walsh Saturday but gutted out another W. Cooper's teams the last few years wouldn't have been able to pull that comeback. This team does some to have some grit to them. Tough schedule ahead. Findlay and Hillsdale both ranked in the Top 25, but KWC has also crept in to the receiving votes category. Assuming the team keeps playing to their potential, I'm really excited for Hillsdale coming to town on Feb 8th. I'll have to start resting my voice now!

[Bballfan]

Hillsdale at KWC I think KWC wins. Hillsdale isn't a tall team. The key to beating them is to guard the perimeter as their game is the long ball.

After being competitive the last several years, appears the women have taken a step back. Hearing the coaches are looking to get out, and the play on the court sort of indicates something is amiss. Typically, didn't lose at home to some of the teams they are now. Could see changes coming on the women's side.

[Lawson]

Hopefully KWC wins two more this week…lm enjoying the season so far..toughest games to come

[Lawson]

Good win for the Panthers….I think they need to go 5-1 over the last 6 though to feel good about an NCAA bid

[pantherfan]

Agreed. Fortunately 3 of them are at home. Their path is laid out. If they rattle off 6 wins they likely win the conference and host the tourney, which I would love to see happen. I'd also like to see them just win the conference tourney and not worry about an at-large bid. Their losses are largely bad losses, with the exception being Hillsdale, so getting an at-large may prove difficult. First regional rankings aren't far off. That should help us have a much better picture of what is ahead.

[Bballfan]

The way things are looking right now, the GMAC is only getting one, MAYBE two in the tournament. So the automatic bid is critical.
