In the car on the way to the game. Please put anything related to pregame, ESPN coverage etc. on here. We need to win this game. Keep it rolling, beat Temple for once, and make Temple fans sad, most importantly.

Agenda 1. Up. 2. Hearty breakfast. 3. Watch LAS NCAA behind the scenes videos back to back to back and SWEET!. 4. Head to University City and grab a beer or three. 5. Kick Temple's state-funded sponging ass.

La Salle is way bigger in the fan count and noise so far.

I'm in front of the tv just waiting for Gameday to come on. This is just as cool as it was the day they announced it. Can't wait!

Fan in line in front of me was told by ESPN guy he couldn't bring his sign in because it had a hashtag on it.

If ESPN wants to censor signs, they're going to miss out on part of the Palestra tradition that they want to showcase. Rollouts must not be touched.

Also hasn't it been a tradition with college gameday, mostly the football side, of getting all kinds of signs on tv. Hell there's been obscenities and sexually based signs that have gotten on. Maybe it's because their crowds are bigger but cmon ESPN.

Two "save temple athletics" posters have slipped in on the TU side, probably baseball players behind it. Would have been a great La Salle rollout.

Gameday has started on ESPNU. Opened with a highlight package of our run to the Sweet 16 and gave some love to the Southwest Philly Floater and Cousin Vern

On TV it appears like La Salle side while less in numbers making up for it and then some in energy compared to Temple

Only one sign is visible from the main set camera and it's a Temple sign "LOL SALLE" Not bad, not bad make me smirk

Wrapped up first segment talking about NCAA freshmen and Marcus Smart To paraphrase Lloyd Bridges in Airplane, it looks like I picked a bad day to get food poisoning / a stomach virus. I've really been looking forward to this game all year and instead I'm home puking my guts up. Hopefully G says in the locker room..."Win one for the calsufan." I'll be watching the game from home now. Let's Go Explorers!

ESPN not at all doing the La Salle contingent justice by the way they're showing how many people are there. This is from our fearless leader on scene at the Palestra, thanks to Neumann for the pictures

Walking around down here waiting for my friends to arrive. It is really awesome. I am not a drinker so I haven't gone in anywhere. But New Deck looked like a blast. Good coffee shop just opened on 32nd and Chestnut if you are looking for a non-Starbucks. Called Joe Coffee.
