South Alabama beat incarnate Word tonight 84-63, so South Alabama will be 4-2 heading into tomorrow's game. Incarnate Word is WIU's opponent on Wednesday.

Does anyone know who Coach was talking about, in his post game interview Thursday. He said Incarnate Word has a player that he really wanted, said he recruited him harder that he has any other player and he said we lost out on him due to $$ (NIL)

The guys are heating it up tonite from beyond the arc.  How long do they stay in the zone?

Update:  South Ala made a 11 point run to end the half.  Necks up 41-25.

They've definitely cooled off from three. Were up 38 - 12 at one point and now its 56 - 54 with less then 4 minutes to play. Can't seem to get any good looks close to the basket.

Necks hold on (barely) for the W 64-63.  Our theme did not change for the duration.  Live by the 3 or die by the 3.
One of our bigs is going to have to grow up even bigger as this season progresses.
