LADY RAIDER BB Middle Tennessee (9-5, 1-0) vs Liberty (8-4, 1-0) (ESPNU), 3PM, Saturday, January 4, 2025

Better bring our A game. Smuda and Hess can be a handful. Long way to go but after beating WKU Thursday, a win in the Boro completing the road trip sweep would certainly put Liberty in the early drivers seat.

Thursday was a step in the right direction for MT. We need that same intensity to show up Saturday. We always have a target on our back but Liberty has us square in their sights. We haven't played well enough, consistently enough to make me feel comfortable about this one. Hope my insecurity is wrong.

Our shooting must improve tremendously. Anastasia needs to have her best offensive and defensive game this season or Smuda will school her.
It's going to be a close one. Hope we have a good crowd.
 
I think home court advantage will help a lot in this one. This is the game where we need to have shots go down or else.
 
Wow... up 60-29 going into the 4Q. Making our shots, playing defense, same intensity as FIU game... Great game. That tough OOC schedule is paying off big time, lol.

This would give us 31 straight wins in CUSA -- this win would make the new record, currently we are tied with Rice at 30.
 
Very impressive start to conference play beating the preseason 2 and 3 holding them both to their season lows. I'm sure FIU isn't as good as initially projected, but they did just pick up the road W against WKU today. Really good focus and intensity to start conference play.
