Great picture!

I wonder if they know Jimmy Buffet in Finland...

Good decision to start Juho. Save Sammy for the NCAAs.

Let's get it on. I'd put Juho against Dell or Eidsness all day, every day.

Dell didn't look good for the 1st 30 minutes. Then he didn't have anything to do for the last 30.

Pios keep him busy tonite!

Thank the lord Murray isn't playing

Viz, I agree. Dell "didn't show me much". The Sue have always relied on offense to cover up the holes in their defense.

Shoot early and shoot often Pios!

I just talked to my sister (a Sioux fan) as she was driving into the Xcel Center and she said it was just nuts! With St Patty's day and all the green and all the Sioux fans with there green, she said this was looking to be an exceptionally crazy final tonight.

Air Force up 2-0 at the end of the first period.

What happened to Phillips?

Olkinuora leaving too many "juicy" rebounds.

According to Chambers, Phillips has some sort of a leg injury and is likely done for the season.

Nothing officially announced by DU regarding his injury.

Come on DU, have some heart.

Like I said, when we have the NCAA tournament sewed up this tournament is counter productive. Now our boys have to not only rest up physically but, just as important, come off the emotional high and reset .Easier said than done.
