Fisher has their hands full tonight with a tough non-conference game against Geneseo.  This game could very easily put Fisher at 0-2.  Geneseo is coming off a huge win at NYU.  But, you never know the Cards have handled Geneseo in past....The guard play must show up for Fisher for them to have a shot.  We will see. I got Geneseo by 6.

Can we get some gents in here that can talk some basketball without needing these:


Max, Jose, Caz, Pep, Boobs... where art thou? I suppose I'll have to stick to football until you guys meander over.

Tags, stop "supposing to have to stick to football" when your team is playing in the quarters.

I'll be over... keep in mind I know far less about IC Bball than football, which isn't very much anyway, and living out west I can't see any games... if you guys keep up the banter like this though, it'll be hard to stay away.

Triplethreat, at first i was impressed by the NYU victory, but then I saw that York, NY beat them by 17 and RIT beat York by 20.  So the NYU team is weaker than in the past.  However, knowing the geneseo personnel fairly well, I still think Geneseo will beat Fisher by 5-6 pts.  Being at geneseo and no smalt, they could win by even more.

Wow, that is very interesting to me.  I did not know that NYU lost to York.  Must be a rebuilding year for them.  Yes Geneseo is favored in this game and should come out on top.  Fisher needs to play a very solid game and have Geneseo play poor for the Cards to pull out a win.  This is a game that Fisher needs to win with a tough schedule coming off a loss to an average or below average Hobart team.  If Fisher struggles with teams like that they will struggle to finish in the top 4 in the E8.

Wow...hard to believe that Fisher may struggle to get into the tournament. The E8 tournament that is...

If they don't make the top 4 in the league it would be a sad day in Fisher Basketball.

any updates on the Fisher/Geneseo game? The Livestats is having problems, and I don't want to wait for scores...

I'm showing 73-61 Fisher with 5:44 to go...but I guess that's where it's frozen.

That is from the Hobart game. If you look at the teams it is Hobarts stats.

Thanks for the info...boy I think Fisher needs this one.

Some other E8 scores of note:

RIT defeats Potsdam, 79-70.

Hamilton clips Utica, 73-63. Herring leads Utica with 18 and is only player in double-digits for the Pioneers. Result never in doubt as Utica down double-digits for almost entire 2nd half.

Stevens over City College of NY, 70-57.

Fisher down a couple with 8 minutes left

57-51 Geneseo with about five left
