4:00pm EST tip on Monday 11/30/2020 at the KFC Yum! Center, Louisville, KY Lets go its finally time!!! This will be no pushover game for sure... Little Rock will be ready to play so hopefully we have the kinks worked out at the tip. I think we'll have the same starting five as most of last season: Does anybody know if this game is on ESPN Plus or elsewhere? Does anybody know if this game is on ESPN Plus or elsewhere? It will be on on ESPN3, so yes espn+ Thanks Bluff. Thanks Phoenix. I've been looking forward to this thread for a very long time. Let's hope Dambrot and the guys can continue the ascent of the Dukes program from the ashes this year. I hope they come out looking to destroy teams. No lazy mistakes and wasteful possessions like in the past. Team is old now, at least with the starters for the most part. Losing to lower ranked teams should no longer be tolerated. Set the tone today!!! Per Dunlap tweet this morning Thanks Phoenix. I've been looking forward to this thread for a very long time. Let's hope Dambrot and the guys can continue the ascent of the Dukes program from the ashes this year. I think ESPN3 is free or thrown in if you have some ESPN channel. I've watched games on Roku without signing in like I may have to with ESPN+. Also you might get games with the ESPN app or just googling ESPN3 on a computer. I don't know about rewinding but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a replay later. Per Dunlap tweet this morning FWIW, Brey put on twitter that ND is looking for a game Dec 4/5, and would travel. He basically asked every team in the country for a game. I hope DU is trying to get a game with them tho. Dont care if its here or there. i missed this place. for the most part i mean Super excited to see how we start. Go Dukes! Here's the link to watch the game online. Rotroff with the start! Hughes not a starter? Weathers needs to step up n go to the hoop. D giving up way too many lay ups. D giving up way too many lay ups. You can tell it's our first game... For whatever reason Dambrot has seemed to prioritize getting everyone a look vs playing the best possible lineup. Everyone is getting a look. I wonder if it also has to do with not putting too much on tape as they have to turn around and play a better UNCG team. These first 5/6 games this year is one of the toughest schedules in years. They are getting beat by a good team. Carrie sleeping on that steal. This team seems too quick for us based on watching the fouls we are committing. Last edited by FAM (11/30/2020 5:27 pm) Fam so far i think carrie has been pretty solid. Do u have his stats? Nobody else doing much.. Timeout maybe,?????? 12 PTs. 4 rebounds. He is doing well. The big guys are also outplaying Hughes. Not that Hughes isn’t trying. Thanks Last edited by FAM (11/30/2020 5:48 pm)

Re: Game Thread - Little Rock Trojans
As for the broadcast, does anyone know if there is any difference between ESPN3 and ESPN+. I ask because when I was watching the Little Rock-Greensboro game on ESPN3 I tried rewinding it and I couldn't because it said it was live. I know ESPN+ could be rewound, as I did it frequently. I'm hoping it was just a glitch or I did something wrong because I may not be able to make the 4:00 tip tonight and definitely won't be able to make the even earlier tips the rest of the week. I'm hoping I'll be able to just rewind to the beginning and catch what I missed.

Still gotta win this one first. My guess is the roster management could look a lot different down the stretch in the second half.

26% from 3 pt. Land n 38% from 2 pts. Their defense is tough. Our offensive rebound still needs work. This is a good first game. Rather them play a tough team than a cupcake.
