Annual reminder to wear Gold

[MU82]

Chico Carter, Depaul's leading scorer, assist man, and 3P shooter is out tonight.

Chico, don't be discouraged;
The DePaul fan, he's always badly outmanned.
Chico, please get better;
Come back soon and lend a helping hand.

I'm surprised that no one has yet used that meaningful phrase "trap game." Saturday's game hosting Seton Hall looms large and is an important means to get back into the running for the regular season championship. Tonight should, in theory, be a good ol' a** whuppin'. But, us scoopers really could mess things up if we look past Depaul and towards Seton Hall.

Chico, your mother loves you
But tonight she'll be wearing gold and blue

Not doubting ya, but where did you see this? Last update I could find on him was from Saturday.

I've got a bad feeling about tonight.  I think in a lot of ways it is a trap game.  Our fans filling their arena always seems to pump DePaul up more than us, first game with a new coach, players needing to impress for the next guy... I think DePaul comes out really fired up.  On top of that, we haven't exactly set the world on fire traditionally at their place and another 5-31 from 3 pt night is not out of the question for us.  Still think we win going away, but I wouldn't be surprised if it takes us 30 minutes or more of game time to take control.  If they weren't as epically bad as they are, I'd really be worried.

A lot of games won going away are choppy for 25-30 minutes.

[Galway Eagle]

Does anyone know if they fly in for this game? I've often wondered if they do and if the jet lag, even of a 30min flight, is worth it compared to a 1-2 hour bus ride... or Amtrak ride.

I expect MU to be comfortably covering the spread...and then the walk ons to be -10 in 2 minutes to make all bettors sweat.

I thought that but also what a wild 48 hours for DePaul. A lot of their roster only came to DePaul because of Stubblefield. MU is a team that requires a solid defensive game plan to stop. Did they put one in place? DePaul hasn't had much time for the news to sink in and regroup.

With Mrs Legs (MU also).  Meeting up w sister (MU) and her family (incl 2 MU grads), and several class of 86 folks (including one former roommate).

Don't forget Stevie jersey this time

Willie got a number 4 jersey and put "Dung" in the name plate

So, win going away.....but with a bad feeling while doing so. Gotcha.

I have a strong feeling you will be drinking Gold tonight.

I believe they bus.

Uhh,  Milwaukee and Chicago are in the same time zone.
But, don't worry - they will bus just to be safe.

[94Warrior]

No letdown, no jet lag, we will exorcize the demons.

Jet lag can also be attributed to dehydration from flying and missing meals as the whole process interrupts standard schedules. Don't know why you needed to respond so snarky to an innocuous question.

It's 30 min flight - missing meals and dehydration ????

[The Sultan]

Pretty sure they bussed down last night.
