Stucky,
I agree that Mason does match well, which is why I am glad the Irish are playing them and not an overly athletic team. I'm of the mindset that unless Thomas is literally scoring on every possession, just keep rotating defenders onto him - Kurz, Harangody, Zeller, hell, even Ty Nash to burn a few fouls - and hope he either gets fatigued or picks up a few dumb fouls and has to sit on the bench. At first I was worried about Mason's "scramble defense," but I think it could really benefit the Irish if they keep their cool. Harangody might be a difficult option to utilize down in the post with a bunch of six-foot demon flies swarming around him, but if the Patriots are scrambling, that means they'll assuredly find themselves out of position. And if they're out of position, that should lead to open threes for the Irish, who have a bunch of people capable of knocking them down. Granted, if the three's aren't falling, things get really desperate, but the Irish just have to hope the percentages prove themselves true. This is a small George Mason team, and there's no excuse for them to beat the Irish on the offensive boards. And with two guys in the backcourt who have played against strong, fast Big East guards all season, the pressure that's thrown out at them shouldn't be anything out of the ordinary. I like the Irish by double digits today. By the way how the hell did that UNLV game go over????

You got that right Stuck...I had that UNDER big as well.
41 in the 1st half and 88 in the 2nd half.
What I wanna know is why the hell was the Kent coach fouling down 15 with less than a minute?

Not sure what kent st. thought they were going to prove fouling down 17, but I'm sure they justify it with the cliche "We never gave up" and "We play hard the whole game", but in reality, they just look like a bunch of outclassed fucking idiots...
I'm done playing dogs, too...BOL to you, though...
