Hopefully our guys get a little bit of a break and a chance to recover for tomorrow. This one had to take a lot out of them. I'm really hoping Custer starts feeling better and doesn't look like he's struggling so much on the court tomorrow. It's pretty obvious something is bothering him (whether it be an ankle or a head cold).

I don't know how we do it, but we've really managed to figure out how to grind things out at the end of games and find a way to protect a lead. It definitely helps that we have guys like Townes to pull us through big games when Custer, Krutwig, Ingram, etc. are struggling.

God I hope ISU and SIU have a knock-down, drag-out fight in this next game. We need them to wear each other out...

Tense minutes there for a while in the 2nd half, but once we got our main guys back on the court, we had nore confidence. LOVED the defense in the last three minutes!

Soooo many fans I haven't seen lately... and some I've never seen before. Christian Thomas sat two rows in front of me, and Shin Kerr was 15 feet away.

I have said it over and over !! We have SO MANY GUNS !! That was the reason we won--We needed them all no question !! Our bench is SO good !! Townes Satterwhite and Skogna saved us as our usual six were staggering --I was never concerned ALL year ( except when Custer was out--

One more to go--We WILL do it--Porter and the boys will come through !!

This is my third Arch Madness...and by far my favorite! The number of Loyola fans is definitely much, much larger than in previous years.

Key sequence:

Score was stuck at 56-54 for what seemed like an eternity. Then, a Richardson steal, Custer assist and Townes 3 makes it 59-54 and just about sealed it.

This is so much fun.

A negative comment or more--
Bradley IS a dirty team in my opinion!! No question--Case in point--Wild man Brown geys the ball late at top of key--LITERALLY shoves our man low in the back--I mean viscious !! He steps back wide open because of the shove--Missed the three we get rebound !
AS always refs called NOTHING !! Just another instance of POOR refereeing -- Anijer --our guy gets chopped in the neck-- Again late !! Bradley was frustrated as always--I blame their Coach !!
Just another example of why PORTER is COY !!

Driving to Vito’s now

I will drive tonight or tomorrow morning. What section are Loyola fans in? I was thinking of just going to the box office and buying before the game. Any chance of a sellout?
