intensity

The first semi final game is, in its early stages at least, very intense. The CAA is a one and done league. Both of these teams have a chance to go to the tournament. They also have a chance to be eliminated before 6 p.m. daylight savings time. In the early going the score is 8-7 ODU and every possession is a war. The fellow to my right who writes for a Virginia paper says he has not seen the ODU coach so demonstrative previously. Demonstrative he is. So is the VCU coach who had his suit jacket on for all of about two minutes. I have not seen either coach sit down yet.
