No Aiken tonight for SHU

[UCfor3]

I always wish our opponents were at full strength. I hate having question-marks on our resume.

A loss without their best guard would hurt at this point. Need a W.

He has missed like the last 7 games. We are getting the same Seton Hall as everyone else.

So in Boneyard theory, if our boys were to win tonight it doesn’t count.

The crowd of people that only show up after bad games will always show up. Reasonable people know that SHU is still a heck of a team without Aiken.

Sure, just saying I'd rather play them with Aiken. They're still really good without him. They've even played better at times... they've had a sense of urgency about them.

 

[gtcam]

Aiken hasn't been a consistent contributor in a few weeks due to injuries etc
Hall will play just as hard and will be very hungry because they are fighting for a cemented NCAA bid
We have to hope that UConn comes out hungry, smart and poised.

well at least when he returns they can say



My Aiken Back

You must get your Dad jokes from a Dad-a-base.

Well, it is a home game, so we'll still be on the bubble.

No Posh no Aiken no Justin Moore no Morsell? You could fill out a decent all Big East team with the players we’ve avoided. No excuses tonight.

Lol Add Auburn and Saint Bon to the list of teams missing a key player.

 

[CL82]

Is he avoiding paying Adama?

Why? Does he owe him money?

 

[hasheemthedream]

Wish he had transferred here! Really like his game and he would of filled a huge void for us. Hope he gets well soon!

Take Auburn off that list

 

[Hungryhusky99]

Take Auburn off that list

why?

 

[Huskybass]

Special player, mature, heady and crafty. Aiken is a huge loss for them. His dad, Daryl Aiken, lived in my dorm at UConn. He was a long jumper on the track team. Tremendous athlete.

 

[CTGoonie]

Yetna is going to be a problem tonight. He didn't play in the first game. Hopefully Sanogo can avoid early foul trouble.

 

[UofCT]

Made me laugh

No Tyrese, No Adama, No Whaley more like an all NCAA team!

 

[mauconnfan]

Everyone had trouble keeping Aiken in front of them at closing time in the first game this is a huge assist on the defensive end. Nonetheless a good team but a win our guys really need badly.

 

[Huskybass]

Dead on. Injuries taketh and injuries giveth. You simply play the games.

Many sports betting advice sites like Seton Hall +5.5. I saw one that called us a paper tiger noting that we’re only 3-7 vs top 70. Hall seems to have turned a corner 3-1 in their last 4, only loss was a back and forth with Nova. Not touching this one. Going to be close imo.

 

[Peacefrog]

They need to show up ready to go.

We've been missing a key player all year.... One that can consistently knock down an open 3

Interesting and arbitrary cut off since we’re 8-7 vs Quad 1+2 teams

 

[HuskyHawk]

I'll take it!

Back-to-back games in GAMPEL. I expect it to rain

If you mean BY theory in regards to providence record you are correct.
