Our game with Nova will be in AC - no, not Al Cowlings, dammit, but Atlantic City. Anyways, this is a small consolation to me, a degenerate gambler, who somehow missed the Las Vegas tournament. I'm not sure why two teams located around 15 miles apart need to both drive at least 50 miles to play a basketball game, but whatever.

I'm not sure why the game would be in AC, but I remember a game vs. Penn State that was played there in the mid 90s.

Yup. It was cold as hell that day and Penn State's Pete Lisicky torched us for about thirty.

I seem to recall several years ago the Nova fans moaning and groaning after we killed them in the Center in their home game. It's called TELEVISION, my friend, and each team is lovingly willing to give up home court advantage to reap the bucks.

If I'm not mistaken, that was the game that Jamie Lyren broke his foot and he was never the same.
