4 games and counting...and its over (well maybe not)
BYU and UNLV will be momentum setting games. Given their records, BYU will more than likely be the champions of the conference. Therefore, what can SDSU gain from these contests; well, momentum for starters. SDSU knows it needs to win the MWC tournament; there are no other options. Victories over their two nemesis will only help their pysche, as well as provide the needed confidence going into the tournament.
The BYU game will be tough to win, but not impossible. Billy White and DJ Gay must have great games! Ammo and Lo-Wade's performance go with out saying; their play must excel. But, DJ Gay and Billy White, when they play well, provide SDSU with that necessary perimeter and added inside game that has been absent since the loss of Spain. Look for DJ to play a lot of minutes. It seems that he has taken over the starting guard duties. Richie's presence has diminished somewhat; it appears that his playing time has been reduced to a supporting role for Fisher's fast and aggressive team. It could be his wrist; or, it could be that DJ Gay's play is maturating quicker than even Fisher could imagine. That's certainly a plus for SDSU depth.
Two wins that are a must! If not for an NCAA opportunity, then simply to avoid humility. Because waiting until next year is a long time; and, well, I'm tired of continually using the, played-out vernacular "well there's always next year".
What say you?

And down the stretch they come...Not sure how the game is going to end, but you guys are getting some nice home cooking. So far, SDSU has shot 23 free throws, BYU has shot 5. If you can't win with that disparity, then you don't deserve it. Hope the Aztecs pull it off. |

And down the stretch they come...Thanks for the win, vegas is one step closer. 30 free throws to 6 !!! After watching that one, all I can say is BYU got screwed, but I'm glad they did. |
