Thought I would start a thread on the upcoming game.
Found this on their team web site. As a Big Five fan I hope they are improved this year. But not too much--at least yet.

Kinda underestimates Penn a smidge, actually...

I hope that those making predictions have seen these SELECTED highlights from the LaSalle - Iona game. Not a piece of cake.

No Big 5 game is a piece of cake. That's what makes them so valuable in preparing for conference play. I'll be very happy if Penn can eke out a close one.

I guess it depends on which Penn team shows up... The team that beat Alabama or the team that lost to Rice? My sense is that we will see both throughout this season...

As the old adage goes---that line is telling me something. I would never have expected it to be that high based on the performance so far. I guess someone expects that our shots will start going down at home.

Scott with a great look to Betley steaming down the lane. Next possession runs out of clock, though.

Defense looks a lot better, but still stone-cold from 3. Between that and some missed bunnies, this could have been a wipeout by now

Penn 13-8 with 10:21 left in 1st half.
Lots of guys for Penn feel comfortable shooting the 3 or going to the hoop. AJ missed a couple in close. The team continues to struggle from 3, going 1-6 so far.
