Ugly so far. 11-9 Temple. Richmonds already missed two free throws and can't throw it in the ocean.

I believe that both Richmond and Temple are better than Xavier this year, only by a hair though. Also, in my mind, Temple is best in the A-10 because of their amazing defense. They score just enough points to pull out those tough wins.

But, in the end, I see Richmond coming out as the A-10 champs. I don't think Temple can stop both Anderson and Gonzalvez. They are killers.

Great crowd, great game so far.

Both teams playing better now. Temple makes things ugly for everybody. Temple should win based on the fract they've played nobody to get to the finals. Definitely a huge difference not getting the 1 seed.

It's especially painful watching Gonzalvez struggle right now, especially how badly that guy has torched us.

This sucks, XU would have had a better showing. RU seems flat off their win yesterday, which seemed to be their primary motivation.

What a game to this point. Richmond has shown a great amount of fight.

Anderson is going to the line to try and complete a 3 point play.

A10 needs RU to win in the sense that Temple won't move up if they win. Plus it makes XU look better :)

Richmond just missed a front end and two layups in their last three possessions. They are down by 3.

Big time choke.

Richmond just left six points on the floor and should be winning.

Gonzalvez, after going 13-of-14 against us, misses the front end, Butler blows a lay-up and Anderson misses a bunny on consecutive possessions.

Temple's good, but this just makes you tear your hair out.

They still have a chance. We gave them chance after chance yesterday by scoring one field goal in the last five minutes...

I take back everything I ever said about Anderson not deserving POY A10. That guy is unbelievable.

This Richmond team just does not give up. What heart

Did the announcer just say that he wished the game was over right before a break? Was that not supposed to be caught by the mike?

This game looks to be over now. Temple is going to win again. They have an impressive winning streak in A-10 tourney play.

Temple goes into a prevent offense with about 7 minutes to go and still wins thanks to Richmond missing some layups and free throws. To bad X couldn't of caught those breaks.

As for the announcers comment, he made it in regards to the fans reaction they were showing.

Richmond was gassed from playing Xavier the same as Xavier was gassed from playing Dayton. The #1 seed completely paid off for Temple. Damn you SLU.

In sum, I blame Dayton for Xavier not winning the A-10 Tourney.

Definitely did....

EEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasy.

I think that they were referring to Ryan Brooks' mother wishing that the game was over. It wasn't a slam at the A-10.

Temple is tough to beat in AC. They also had a real easy road in this tournament after Bonaventure beat Dookcane. Other than it would have been nice to be on CBS, I'm glad we had the day off. It would have been a real difficult job to win this game.

That would explain it. I thought I heard him say "I wish this game was over". I don't always listen to everything they say though.

That's what I thought he meant as well. Unless he had to get to the john badly.
