SEC-TV affiliate list for tonight . WKTC is channel 135 on T-W in Columbia . I don't think T-W picks up the HD signal but it may be in HD over the air . Channel 63-1(I think) with an antenna .

It sucks that the Florence-Myrtle Beach channel is WPDEDT2 which is channel 106 on TWC. They never show any of our games in HD on that channel even though the channel itself is HD. Most of the time they actually just put the ESPN3 feed up on it.

Broadcast = I can't watch it since windstream doesn't carry ESPN3...they stink

and

have an online seminar/class between 7-9

I have always thought that Gary Blair was kind of a weird dude but take a look at his press conference. http://texags.com/Stories/12670

[SECgamecock453]

It will probably be a similar score as the first time we played them.

There coach is Billy Kennedy

Read a article this morning about the game. Coach Martin and their coach are good friends it seems. Apparently their coach has been diagnosed with Parkinson's. I think that's what it is. Coach Martin seems to really like the way their team plays, so I'm guessing their guys hustle hard and play good D.

Everything I've noticed about Texas A&M is weird.

If you watched his press conference you would have thought he was with the way he was talking about the mens team.

They are a lot like LSU on defense. They have a lot of length and block 15% of opponents 2pt shots. The guys to watch out for are junior F Roberson (6'9 244) averaging 10.4 ppg and 7.7 rpg, 6'8 (yes 6'8) G Jones averaging 10.9 ppg, 6'5 G Caruso averaging 9.3 ppg 5.1 apg and 2.4 spg.

They are pretty weak on offense, but their defense can be stifling. One way to attack them is to shoot more threes. We take way too many 2 pt shots for how inefficient we are, and A&M does leave the three point shot open a good bit.

Still need to attack the rim, but I'd like to see us shoot 20 or so 3's this game if they are good shots.

We lose by 10+. Bank on it.

I love your optimism. Not.

We'd have to have an atrocious night on both ends of the floor for that to happen because A&M does not have a great offense.
