Feel free to add any observations you have about Miami in the comments section. WHICH QUARTERBACK? Kyle Wright twisted his ankle in the […]
Important Affair with Hurricanes Today
Just because State lost on Tuesday night does not mean that you can underestimate the importance to today’s game. I look at the rest of the season as follows: State needs two wins to feel good about securing an NIT berth (especially in light of the amount of tickets that we will no doubt sell […]
