    The Courier said there were "less than 600 tickets remaining" for tonight's game. I want one of those big loud crowds with people hanging off the observation decks!!!

      My wife and I are coming up - our second game at the McLeod. Funny - when I bought these tickets, we were 13-2- and I figured this game could help cement another tournament berth...Oh, how things change...Still, I'm excited to see this one - and I really think the Panthers are going to smoke Barry and the boys tonight.

      With our tournament hopes on life support, I'm also interested to see how big the turnout is tonight - and the level of enthusiasm. Hopefully both are impressive!!!!

      GO PANTHERS!

        This game pretty much sealed the deal. With three road games left against Creighton, #11 Nevada, and Bradley I don't UNI winning any of them. More then likely they'll now finish under .500 in the league, guaranteeing no post-season play this year.

          it wouldn't be a guarantee. We could, conceivably get on a hot streak in StL to get the bid.

          haha, that was funny.

            Hey - these are the Panthers. ANYTHING is possible - I have come to truly believe that over my life as a Panther fan.....too many big upsets and amazing comebacks! Now, I'm completely realistic and won't be suprised if things continue going downhill, but I also will NEVER be surprised if we suddenly give some teams a good whoopin'!

                We may not be winning as many games as we hoped for, but these guys are playing with tons of effort. No pointing fingers, no bickering, nothing but fight on the court. IMO, that gives me great hope for this team and next year's team.

                  We are playing with good effort, but without great urgency. That is a much larger problem.

                    How can you tell the difference b/t urgency and panic by watching a team play? (Honest question)

                    IMO, this team is playing within themselves and playing with great effort. They aren't trying to panic when they get down. If they began to panic you would see frustration fouls (which at times there have been, but I haven't seen any recently). I think it's difficult to observe a team and say that they are or are not playing with a sense of urgency. Panic on the otherhand I believe is observable...I'm not seeing that with this team.

                      Both things are observable. Surely you've been in a situation where you not only need to perform (and by perform, I mean succeed/deliver/achieve) but do so immediately. You can view that in another person, or in a team...a recognition that things have to be done, and now.

                      Panic is another thing, that's urgency minus control.

                        Well...by your definition...I saw urgency in the eyes of the Panthers last night. Thanks to those who turned out and made it a great atmosphere last night. I had several friends from Springfield up for the game and they were more than impressed compared to basketball in the Dome and said that there wasn't a bad seat in the house.

                        Also, they were convinced that Brooks' steal was clean. (I am too...even if it wasn't...the official who should have made the call...didn't blow his whistle)

                            From what I saw on TV (the instant replay) the official who "should have" didn't have the angle to see the foul. Brooks got him pretty good, but from the back side (from the official's POV.)

                              See that's funny News...because people that I talked to later last night who saw the instant reply on tv (friends who live in Springfield) thought Brooks got him clean...and then both players were pushing to get the ball...and they thought there should not have been a foul called. He got the ball clean.
