2pm start in McCannn, with the Foxes having a chance to be 4-0 at home heading into 2024. Lehigh's two wins have both been at home to D3 teams and they've struggled from 3 this year shooting just 31%.
Line: Marist -5.5

They positively should win. They are the better team, with more depth, more talent. But if they lose are you saying season over? That must win moniker drives me bat .... Crazy. Why can't we just support this year's team without always having this preemptive "subtle negativity" so we can go, "sane old, same old". Can we just accept this us a good team?

Marist 0-7 all-time vs Lehigh. The Foxes are due. Marist breaks into the all-time win column vs the Mountain Hawks today. Bounce back opportunity after fumbling the opportunity to earn a signature win in South Bend. Expecting a 15+ point win is a bit much, but I expect the game to be well in hand for the Foxes as the 2nd half winds down.

I think you’re both correct. No it doesn’t matter how much they win by if they don’t win the maac tournament. However, the recent bracketology has us now as a 15 seed and I think style points are important. I think it’s fair to have real expectations now and that we have to beat up on the teams we’re supposed to beat up on. Just enjoy the season. It’s been a while since we could say that.

This is fair and sensible. Let's hope marist comes out full strength and plays well entire game.

McCollum type player on their team ..Go Foxes ,,,Wolves ..whatever ..

You are like one of those people who gets a D in class and says "well at least I passed" Have standards, expect more from this team. Am I happy we are 7-3? Sure, do I think they should have beaten UNH and ND - hell yes. Who knows those loses could hurt us if we are looking for a bid to a post season tournament. Winning the MAAC would be huge, but long way away. But if we play the 347th ranked team in DI and only come away with a 5 point win - then YEAH I'd say we probably didn't play very well.

How any DI player can’t make a FT is beyond me

Not the same team without Max Allen and Cooley on the floor. Should still be a close win for Marist.

Finally some crisp ball movement to find the open man.
