game tomorrow night. We win this, and by next Saturday, when we should be able to handle WV at home, we can be 8-3; looking at the league schedule, all of the other top 7 have at least 1, if not 2, games against each other in the next 10 days, so there will be some losses piling up. We can position ourselves solidly for the top 4 or 5 in the league, and a win or 2 in the ND/UConn/Villanova games should be enough to put us in the NCAA's - a statement that I did not expect to be able to even contemplate until at least next year, if not the year after. It all starts with tomorrow - we are the better team, and we have played well on the road, with the exception of the first half at BC. HOYA SAXA!

Lets take it one game at a time. One game at a time. I'm enthusiastic too. But somehow, when I start looking down the road with my favorite teams and start marking off victories, something bad happens. Let's be cautious.

I agree that the next two games are huge, mostly because they are both very winnable if we play well. Seton Hall was a nice bounce back game. We didn't shoot the ball great, but Wallace made a couple shots, and Bowman played one of, if not the best game of his college career. Plus we dug in on defense, and over the course of the season, that is the thing you really need to rely on when your shots are not falling.
I am very hopeful about tomorrow, and like this team, I will take nothing for granted. The NCAA bid is in range, and I am sure this group will do everything they can to get back to the Big Dance.

no question we all have to take things game by game, I was primarily stressing the importance of the next one - but after a couple of years of not even being able to look forward to the NEXT game, it is nice to be able to sneak a peek ahead with some hope and excitement!
