If UMBC beat Kansas state, and they can if they play them the
way they played Virginia you can kiss Odom goodbye . What a turn
around story with UMBC. New coach. New arena. Wins the AE, beats
#1 team in the land!!.. historical..

UMBC needs to be out looking for a new coach because their
current coach will be offered a power 5 job this spring.

Had to wander back here for this one. Wow, the morning after and
I still cannot believe what I saw. SHREADED the UVA team in the
second half?
Good for them. It was fun watching this team in our little world
these last two years. Who would have thought?
I wonder if these young men yet understand the magnitude of what
they did? An immortal sports moment. They'll never have to buy a
drink in a Baltimore area bar the rest of their lives.
And, yes, the comments here about Odom were the first thing I
was thinking after the initial shock wore off. He instantly
could be in the enviable position of deciding where he wants to
go next, and for "Pikiell +" money.
Crazy thing, too, is if they play like that again they could
make a run in that bracket. Here's hoping they do.
PS, does the PAC12 fall from grace and this historic AE win
prove to be good timing for SBU to get this big fella you all
have been talking about in the other thread?

Truly epic win. Some analysts comparing it to Buster Douglas'
win over Mike Tyson or men's hockey over the Russian national
team in the Olympics. Definitely good for AEC recruiting.

It was a great moment for UMBC and our conference . Hoping they
keep their intensity with Kansas State Sunday the world will be
watching . Congrats again to the Retrievers!

As great as they played on Friday, I just can't see UMBC
regaining its focus with the media frenzy surrounding the team
the last 48 hours. Meanwhile, it's been business as usual for
Kansas State I'd imagine. Hoping that UMBC puts up a fight, but
my sense is that K-State covers the 10.5 point spread.

They’re playing with house money at this point so having nothing
to lose could work for them.

That's why I don't think they win today. They've been receiving
praise from everybody the past 36 hours for doing something one
other team has done. To go from that to refocusing on K-state so
soon? Very tall order.
