This 12/13 7pm CT game looks on paper to be a very challenging one for the Leathernecks as the Hornets come in averaging 80+ per game and in fact lead the SWAC conference in more statistical categories than not:

With a name like the Hornets, does their coach employ a swarming pressure defense like we saw at Cleveland State? If so, trouble looms in Western Hall tonight. If not, I like our chances.

Massey has us a 5 point favorite: http://www.masseyratings.com/game.php?s ... w+illinois

I hope we turned the corner Thursday. I say we win a close one and start playing good basketball from here on out!

Do we have enough depth to hang on to this one? Tate gone. Mo with 4 fouls.
