I counted 15 cars that had slid off the road on my drive in for tonight's game (a couple of those appeared to be helping out those who were way off the road). It usually takes 25-30 minutes; this trip took 50 minutes. Can't wait for that drive home!

Senior guard Steven Gray (back spasms) is suited up and he's expected to play. He'll probably see time in short spurts. He has been limited at practice and didn't do much during GU's walkthrough earlier today. He was riding the stationary bike to loosen up before joining the rest of his teammates for pre-game drills.

I'll be at twitter.com/SRjimm for in-game updates.. Check back here for a quick post at the buzzer and then roughly two hours later for a full game story.
