how many seats are there at us cellular and does anyone know how many ticks have been sold for GB?
Also my predictions for the WSU game 90-70 UWM. If they do go to the zone we'll just put mccants in. I know he was a little cold from beyond the arc last game but he wont go cold to games in a row. Im also predicting a 30 point Joah Tucker performance. And Chris Hill will dunk!
And remember you heard it here first.

This game is no gimmie, tupacrates03. We have not played on the road well when the home team brings their crowd (i.e. UW-Dane County). We did struggle with zone at GB, but they cant set up their defense when we will press and run them down. I think that we are better than they are, but not by 20 pts.

2000 paid tickets have been sold as of today. GB hasnt even got their tickets yet. I am looking at about 1500-1750 students there on saturday. I think that we will get to 8,000. The Cell holds about 10G's.

The US Cellular seats 11,358 for basketball. Unfortunately, I don't know how many tickets have been sold yet for the GB game, but I would guess that there will be more than 7,500 there (weather permitting).
I hope that UWM can bury WSU, but I wouldn't count on it. WSU's record is solid and they have beaten some pretty good teams (UIC, UD, BU), so it will no doubt be a fight. If they do play zone I agree that McCants and Page should be able to shoot them out of it, but honestly beyond those two, we don't have any consistent three point threats. I agree, if Tucker goes off for 30 we win going away, but I think he is the key to this game - how he plays will determine the outcome IMO.

Can Hill even dunk? I never thought Ronnie would be able to dunk, but I saw him do it with my own eyes - so anything is possible. As for the trip to Wright State, that is to bad that not enough students signed up. Hey UWMfootball, what is going to happen to the shirts they were going to give away with the trip to Wright State? Are they going to pass them out at the UWGB game? Any way, I think that we will win tomorrow by around 10. I will say:
UWM 78 WSU 67

I agree with kingsbury, we should win by 10. Hopefully we will have another strong shooting night, like the past few games. It would be nice if a local station would cover the game, should be quite entertaining.

The line on the game favors UWM by anywhere from 1 to 2.5 points.
CBSsportsline has us winning by 7 (75-68).

Just in case anybody was wondering, the over/under is 147.5 (this also is for entertainment purpose only). The Vagas line makes must not be to sure about this game becuase I have seen the line at -4 for the Panthers that means that you can get this game anywhere from -1 to -4 BTW Pnthr30 what web site has the line at -1 .........................i need it for research........... j/k.

For "research" purposes only....... haha Here is the best UWM line that I could find kingsbury www.scoresandodds.com/They must have realized they "messed" up by opening it at 1 because now it is up to 2.5/3.0. haha

My prediction: WSU 69 UWM 65 I don't think WSU will suffer the same kind of let-down in the second half of this game like they did in the last two (against UIC and Butler). Coach Biancardi is pretty good about making adjustments and making sure his team re-gains it's focus after things like that. And THANK GOD he doesn't see every game as a "moral victory" like our last coach, Ed Schilling. Biancardi knows we have a ton of work to do before we get where we want to be (i.e. - ahead of UWM on a regular basis). I'm still trying to figure out how many "moral victories" it would have taken to reach the NCAAs.

Nice try, WSU fan. This is as much a statement game for UWM as they've had all year. Pearl will have the troops fired up. WSU doesn't stand a chance.
My prediction...
UWM 88 WSU 66
