About the only suspense left this season...is this the year the long home winning streak over Wright State finally ends?

Wright State guard Reggie Arceneaux has opened a restaurant in Dayton. You can get almost anything you want there, but don't expect to find an egg-white omelette or a Big Salad.
Panthers by 2.

Let's hope Wright State comes in flat, after the big OT win at GB.

If the Panthers play to their capability, they should win this game.

Gold Rush: Panthers dust Butler to make history
March 12, 2003
By Dan Manoyan
of the Journel Sentinel staff
Clay Tucker's dream was simple.
Blow out Butler. Bow out to a standing ovation.
Tucker got his blowout as the UW-Milwaukee Panthers took out Butler 69-52 in a game that was over shortly after the Bulldogs doffed their warmups. But the standing ovation will have to wait.
"I would have called a timeout, but Clay wouldn't have come out of the game," UWM coach Bruce Pearl said.
UWM, a basketball program that has spent 106 years wondering in what direction it was headed, changing affiliations more often than most change coaches, knows exactly where it is going next.
The Panthers are on their way to their first NCAA tournament.
Playing before a revved-up crowd of 10,115 at the U.S. Cellular Arena, the largest ever for a UWM basketball game, the Panthers made history. The victory, the team's 24th this season, tied a school record for most ever but much more important was the trip to Neverland.
The victory over the 25-5 Bulldogs, who must now sweat out another March Sunday on the NCAA tournament bubble, was so easy that it was almost ridiculous.
When the Panthers scored the first 14 points and then cruised to a 21-4 lead, it was all over except for the elation of traveling a road not taken before.
"This is a proud moment for this university," Pearl said. "Our students deserve it and our alumni deserve it."
Pearl's game plan was simple, but flawlessly executed. Jump all over the Bulldogs, worn down by living out of their suitcases the last six days, and keep them there.
"That was our mindset: throw the first punch," said Tucker, who scored 18 of his game-high 23 points in the opening half. "And don't let them up."
Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man. Can it really be that 10 years have passed? I remember getting to the Arena two hours before the game and watching Clay shoot and shoot and shoot some more.

Jan. 30, 2011 -- Milwaukee 54, Wright State 53
Jan. 16, 2010 -- Milwaukee 67, Wright State 61 (OT)
Dec. 6, 2008 -- Milwaukee 66, Wright State 59
Jan. 3, 2008 -- Milwaukee 75, Wright State 64
Jan. 21, 2007 -- Milwaukee 73, Wright State 69
Jan. 21, 2006 -- Milwaukee 61, Wright State 54
Jan. 17, 2005 -- Milwaukee 71, Wright State 66
Feb. 7, 2004 -- Milwaukee 72, Wright State 66
Jan. 25, 2003 -- Milwaukee 74, Wright State 59 (Klotsche)
Feb. 14, 2002 -- Milwaukee 94, Wright State 68 (Klotsche)
Jan. 18, 2001 -- Milwaukee 56, Wright State 43 (Klotsche)
Feb. 19, 2000 -- Milwaukee 81, Wright State 67 (Klotsche)
Jan. 21, 1999 -- Milwaukee 69, Wright State 65 (Klotsche)
The last time WSU won here was a 75-65 decision at the Arena on Feb. 21, 1998, the regular-season finale in a 3-24 campaign, Ric Cobb's next-to-last year at the helm.
