As a graduate of EKU , I am thrilled to see them dancing. I think possibly their last Big Dance was against UK but I may be mistaken.

 

2007. I think they were a 16 against UNC, maybe? They played UK in '03 if memory serves.

Okay. Thank you. Didn't realize it had been so long since the UK game. Time flies!

In what I felt was a disappointing season for EKU, that all turned around quickly in Nashville. They had a battle on Friday night that went down to the wire against Murray State and then a short turnaround to take on the Bruins. EKU started red hot nailing 6 threes in the first few minutes of the game which ultimately was the deciding factor. Belmont battled back to tie it a couple of times but EKU has some strong minded folks that can respond under pressure.

 

Glad to see Belmont go down. Just an annoying program.

 

The OVC teams were all very inconsistent throughout the whole season. It was hard to tell who was going to beat who. I watched all of Eastern's games . I was there at all the home games and watched the away games on the OVC network. It was just hard to figure out who was the best but Eastern won the games that put them in the big tournament. They got hot at the right time and that's what counts.

In 05 we played UNC. They went on to win the title. 07 we played UK
In 05 we played UNC. They went on to win the title. 07 we played UK

Dont think so. In '07 UK played Nova first round and lost next round to UConn. EKU lost to UNC.

 

Just checked and '05 is when they played UK. Don't know why I said '03.

I will tell you what's crazy, go look at PomRoy's conference rankings when it comes to the OVC. Highest scoring conference in basketball. Murray State, EKU, Belmont, and SEMO could throw up some serious points.
