Defensive intensity has really picked up.

Please... oh please, let's just keep this up. We need a break from so-called Great Games. I need a 20+ win after the last 4.

Refs for the most part are letting them play, which I think is to our advantage. Duquesne is not getting hardly any second chance points and is being stopped by our defensive presence.

No need to start a second half thread with so few posts. Actually, there is never a need with the new musketeermadness format.

Will someone with FSN comment on how the crowd looks? I hear weather is awful in Cincinnati right now.

Per Dustin Dow's blog...

50 people in the stands 30 mins before start of game

A little over 1/2 full 10 mins into the first half

It took the Dukes 45 mins to get to the game (they are staying only 3 miles away)

57-34 X.

Joe and Byron were talking about the small crowd during halftime.

Did Cincy really get that much snow?
