Clemson Game

Well done 23 on your 2nd win in a row - My role is to go to games but not start threads given I take full blame for the Toledo and Bill and Mary losses. Anyone else headed down from Richmond on Sat - going with a friend and my daughter and meeting up with a few other folks?

Section9, I don't want to brag, but my average win margin is 29.5 now :). But seriously, no TV?????????????
Bragging is good .. keep it up - sadly my in-person record is still underwater at 4-5 but my somewhat famous crazy shirt that was worn all A10 and tourney games is now 3-0.

Kenpom predicting a 68-66 loss for Spiders. I don't necessarily like the timing of the Loyola beat down. Clemson had been on a pretty good run prior with wins over Wake, and a good Penn State team (33 kenpom). Thinking they will be motivated to right the ship.

Keys:
Nelson keep up the good play, don't try to do to much, pick your spots.
Quinn - Here comes step up in level of play. Looking for Neal to continue the good play and prove he can do this no matter the opponent. This is a real good time to show that.
Randolph/Dji - Same idea as Quinn - let's step up and show Mooney you are deserving of minutes against a good opponent.
Need Bigs and Burton to bring A games, and Grace to do his thing.

This is our last opportunity to play a top 100 team for 6 weeks, so let's make the most of it.
 
Caution to the fans - this game will divide the fanbase for sure.

If we beat Clemson - you will have people on the board shouting the praises of the staff and how this team is heading in the right direction. Blowout Drake. Blowout FDU. Beat Clemson - this team is gaining momentum into the A10 slate and will be unstoppable!!!! And the coaching staff has figured out the slow starts!!!

If we lose - you will have people on the board shouting - here we go again. Can't win the big games on the schedule. How did we lose to Clemson - a team that got blown out by Loyola, and only beat Towson by 5.

I expect Clemson to be a close game, but the Spiders pull it out. This just seems to be classic Mooney script - have some disappointing losses, but string together enough wins to garner some hope. Similar to last year - we started season 3-4, losses to Utah State, Drake, Maryland and MIss. St. Then we won 6 in a row before A10 play (Then got blown out at home by St. Joes). I see a similar script this season, and the opening game against Mason on the road is always tough.

Trap, you nailed it. I am standing on the fence, waiting to see which side of the yard I jump into. I am ready to jump in and land with two feet pending the performance and outcome. I will very likely even adjust my off season grade again. If memory serves I think I have been as high as B+, and down to C-, or maybe lower.
I thought you were down to a D last I remember seeing it, maybe I'm misremembering.

Just remember 55/45. You're likely to slip on that fence one way or the other but the good news is you will narrowly miss crushing your nuts.

spiders basketball on twitter said to standby about a video broadcast. cross your fingers
I just volunteered my crew to broadcast from the stands - but the commentary might be a bit more colorful that UR may wish at times.
 
Will we get the Clemson team that beat Wake by 20, or the one that got trucked by Loyola. Let's keep up the solid defense and keep the W train rolling.
I am expecting full Transistional property in this game...
The UR-FDU game (29) + The Loyola-FDU game (0) + the Loyola-Clemson game (18) = UR-Clemson game

Therefore UR by 47 and next loss is at Dayton... 16-6 headed into 2nd half of A-10...

U know Fisher Investments. “We do well when our clients do well”.

Well f Fisher, I’m the opposite, I do well when the Spiders do not. I tend to bet against my fav teams. Don’t like the double whammy. The key of course is not betting an amount that changes your rooting interest. Set your limits & call Long Island Spider if u think u have a gambling problem.

The game is listing on ESPN app and listed as an ACC network extra…not sure what that is in regards to free or a fee.
Looks like it might be included with the free trial of YouTube tv.,.

Not sure how any of that works…

I think that is an online stream that you can access if you are a subscriber to the ACC Network from your service provider. I think for most providers you have to access via the ACC Network website.

Thanks, if that’s the case I should have it
 
DirectTV and DirectTV Stream both have ACC Network. Saw Wake Forest play App State
last night on ACC Network and saw why Clemson won by 20. WF is guard oriented except
for 6’11 center transfer from DE who hit winning shot. Clemson will try to be physical as
they are not a finesse team.

Youtube.tv should I think work as well.
 
local comcast appears to be 1325. don't know if that is where we will be, cannot find a listing.
If you have a SmartTV or something like a Roku or Amazon Fire Stick that has the ESPN app then you would be able to see the game on your TV. Otherwise, you will have to watch it on a Tablet or laptop. It is going to be a “stream only” game. It really is a pain with all these different options, but at least video will be available. I was wondering if they were going to direct the video to one of the alternate local HD TV channels. I know I saw a game or two on CBS 6.2 in Richmond in the past.
 
will it stream on ESPN+, I signed up for that during the FCS playoffs.
 
I did and search and found my answer, it appears it will be on EPPN+
 
It won’t work with only an ESPN+ subscription, unless they make a change to simulcast it there.

It shows up in the ESPN+ listings, but it’s an ACCNX game that requires a linked TV package with ACC Network. If you try to view it in ESPN+ it will make you log in to your cable/satellite/streaming provider to check for authorization.

Not on TV…if it’s an ACCNX production, it would be their announcers.

Bob should be on radio, and given it’s a weekend game I imagine Beck will probably be able to make the trip.
