Looks like late night celebratory cocktails at the Green Valley Resort for us! Short walk from the arena.

Where does the Mountain West have its tournament? Too lazy to look it up I'm afraid.

Also in Vegas at the Thomas & Mack Center (which is the home arena of UNLV). Its a pretty cool venue and much closer to the strip than the Big West Championship. Curious what attendance looks like at the games compared to Big West games.

I won't be surprised if Fullerton beats Hawaii.

Hawai’i wins. Fullerton played like trash against us. We just played ever worse.

Watching up close yesterday. I thought Fullerton got away with really physical play, especially on Sevilla. Their frenetic offensive style gets them alot of Ricky tack fouls on offense. I don’t think they are very skilled despite their ability to score. Hoping Hawaii wins

Watching the game on ESPN2, I guess you guys are right. At the half, the two teams have only picked up 11 fouls compared to 51 last night when the Titans muscled their way past the AGs.

Fullerton plays tough d 3-4 feet beyond the 3 point line. Really takes teams out of rhythm. If anyone is watching the game right now. Hawaii is feeling the same thing as Davis last night. Watch how tight they play once they cross half court.

The Titans made a good run to begin the second half, using more of their physical styles of play as evident by the fact that they picked up 15 fouls in the half, but Hawaii is too big and too skilled. Plus, the crowd was full of Hawaii fans who love to go to Las Vegas anyway, so it was almost like a home game for Hawaii. I'll be rooting for the Rainbows to take it to UCI tomorrow. UH is, after all, where I worked for 2 years.

I'm glad that we continue to be playing Hawai'i in the MWC next year. The Aggies and the Bows have established a pretty good rivalry.

the folks planned the MWC in Vegas can’t wait to have Hawaii next year!

There was an article in Vegas paper about the future of tournaments in town with all the change going on. MWC was downplaying losing some of their best teams by touting Hawaii’s attendance, UTEP’s excitement over a better, more accessible location and pointing out that ‘Davis is driving distance to Vegas’.

Big West loses both Hawaii and San Diego - two good draws. But Sac is driving distance!

Big crowd at the Lee Family Forum, at least the side of the arena behind the benches. Hawaii travels bug and I’m guessing a lot of Irvine folk showed up today.

Great game between pretty evenly matched UCI and Hawaii. Defenses are really going for steals, Irvine leads with 6 thefts, to UH's 4, but the Rainbows are up by a slim 31-30 score. Whoever either of these teams might play iin the first round of the NCAAs had better be ready for a tough game.

#2 Hawai'i goes dancing with a 71-64 win over #1 UC Irvine.

Did anyone watching see the double T that happened as the teams were coming off on a timeout. Hawaii bench player ran out to, what it looked like to me, offer handshakes and encouragement to teammates. Irvine guy pushed him out of the way as the Hawaii ran in front of him - big time flop. I couldn’t understand why the Hawaii guy got the T. It’s not like he ran out during play. I saw Rawlins and Franklin run out the same way Thursday - seemed like something teammates do. Seemed like an odd call

Yes, I thought it was a bad call too. Maybe the refs weren't paying close attention and needed to call something. Anyone think the Eaters have a shot at the NIT?

they had the entire TV timeout to review all the angles we saw, so I can’t figure what the thought process was.
