As much as I’d rather see GCU face Seattle than NMSU, I don’t think winning would be as sweet if it didn’t come against the Aggies.

I predict Aggies over Redhawks by at least 10. They have the tournament experience. Plus I also want to play the Aggies tomorrow. In order to be the best, you need to beat the best!

Be careful what you ask for...

The crowd looks really good. UVU/GCU also looked good.

Yeah... watching the hot 18-5 start for NMSU, I’m already a little nervous for tomorrow. We played tough ball in Las Cruces though. GCU can buckle down against good competition. They’re on a five game win streak, and they showed grit on Thursday and resilience tonight. No one said getting to the Big Dance would be an easy road.

Big SU comeback! Amazing 3-pointers to finish out the half ahead 43-37.

Nice way to end the half for SU.

SU finished on a 23-3 run. SMh...

When the camera pans the crowd it looks like the GCU crowd is cheering on the Redhawks. Can anyone there confirm this?

NMSU hot out of the break.....

J. Jones is such an incredible player. Such a unique skill set. 12 pts /16 boards already. Definitely deserved his POY award.

That's what Menzies fouls out on??? Are you kidding??? That could be the killer for SU....

Yeah, that was a poor call. Let them play ref!

That was a bad call. SU gonna be scary good next year

I thought SU got away with some BS calls. Their players played dirty this game. It was kinda disappointing.

The T on AJ was BS. Then we get two elbows to our faces with no calls. The jump in fouls on the thee’s ...more BS. Allowing substitutions when already handed the ball on free throws...you guessed it, more BS.

I respectfully disagree. SU was pushing off, extending arm bars and hooking the Aggies. But if the refs are letting you do that, it’s not BS.

Gonna be a packed house tomorrow. Good on the WAC for bringing great crowds. The 2 semi finals looked great on TV. Very impressive.

Eh I suppose. My main complaint comes from the fouls that were called that were not reviewed that seemed more serious.

Same ref who fouled out Giles on game deciding charge call vs gcu. Maybe he is is just incompetent or too whistle happy.
