St. Joes on Spring Break

Looks like we may not have the degree of difficulty that I expected in regards to the home field advantage. I've been saying that the St. Joes game is going to be crazy hard to win because it's the last game in their current fieldhouse, senior night, and that we have a giant "Top 10" bulls-eye on our head for the Hawk to poop on.

Turns out that they conveniently scheduled spring break for the exact same week over there. Whoops. Maybe it will be less of an away game than a neutral site? Who knows? I do know that if the residence halls aren't full of students, that typically the stands aren't either. And maybe the players will get out of synch some without the standard schedule they have been used to.

In any event, I'd sure like to see us knock out the last two regular season games in smart fashion. Hostile environment or not.

I'm thinking it will still be a hostile enviponment. I admit, I didn't know it was the last game in the fieldhouse. But they probably have a lot of commuters and local alums and they only need 3-4,000 people.

It will be hostile but maybe there is room in that gym for a few more X fans. Time for a road trip?
