I am not familiar with Central Arkansas at all, but they have a pretty challenging schedule. Three of their first four games are Baylor, Georgetown and Duke. Their roster shows three 7 footers. I am looking forward to a pretty convincing win, just thought it was interesting.

I'd guess we come out with a lot of energy this time and the game goes smoothly. If it doesn't, it might be indicative that we have bigger problems.

Guess I'm with Rich for this one unless anyone can find a good MASN stream. Not on YoutubeTV or any other paid service.
Agree with Dan though, I'd love to see a full 40 minute game from the guys top to bottom. Mike Anderson (St.J's new coach) is focusing them on playing with a purpose, we need to do the same...don't just play ball, play ball with focus.

By expected rankings this should be the worst team we play all year.
They have a lot of size. Which I think is good as I think posts do better when they play against people their own size rather than smaller players and double teams.
Lead by Deandre Jones 5-11 PG who shot 38% from 3 last year and Hayden Koval a 7 footer who shot 37% from 3 on 103 attempts and had an 8% blk%.
They return 4/5 starters from last year and only had 1 other senior in the rotation.

No 676 or 677 means no Fox Sports Southwest. Looks like I have two hours on a radio feed with the same four commercials every eight minutes.

Does your TV subscription give you access to the Fox Sports app? You might be able to stream the game there.

Does your TV subscription give you access to the Fox Sports app? You might be able to stream the game there. Not available in Florida either. Not even the App is providing live coverage. I have Direct TV & YouTube TV and no Georgetown game tomorrow. First time since the New BIG EAST/Fox Sports deal I won't see a Georgetown game live. Don't get the Seton Hall game either. I really am wondering if this is an off shoot to Fox selling off its regional channels?...

I really am wondering if this is an off shoot to Fox selling off its regional channels?... Youtube.tv in CT is showing it as available, but that is only because we get YES. Psyched though, all this chat had me scared I wouldn't get to see this one. C-Ark has height, not sure what else. Will be interesting to see how The Yurt deals with guys his own size. I am still struggling with the notion that Patrick hasn't been able to teach any of our bigs to handle double teams, but we struggled again Wednesday after a year of watching Govan never quite be able to cope whenever a guard dropped in to double him up. Yurt and the other guys have to be able to move the ball quickly when that happens, pivot away and protect possession. More than anything, I am looking for progress on this issue tomorrow, cause we know the doubles will keep coming. Also, if LeBlanc is back, will make a huge difference in how things start off. Mosely is a great player and a fav of mine, but he was out of position and there was no clear evidence that coach had implemented any kind of scheme in advance for Josh's absence. Maybe the incident that led to the DNP-CD was too recent to plan for, but we were clearly not prepared and our offense didn't sync for a while after, especially on side PNR and wing ball rotation where Josh should have been involved. Sure hope we get to see him play tomorrow.

If we were regularly ranked in the top-20, our games would get a bit more coverage.

The Central Arkansas media guide notes that UCA played a lot of...well, non-collegiate opponents before they joined the NCAA. Here's a partial list:
American Bakery Bracy Brothers Colonial Bakery Denver Safeway England National Bank Gay Oil Kinney Shoes Memphis Coke Piggly Wiggly Robbins Buick Southwestern Bell Warren Dr. Pepper
