Wanna play band?
With a big game ahead tonight, let’s start off the day with our last non-conference early preview.
Prairie View A&M visits the Kohl Center on December 28th at 1 p.m.
School: Prairie View A&M Panthers
Location: Prairie View, Texas
Conference: Southwest Athletic Conference
Undergrad Enrollment: 8,608
2012-13 record: (15-19, 8-10 SWAC)
Top returning players: The Panthers lost four starters from last year, so they don’t have a lot of experience coming back. Jules Montgomery was named the SWAC preseason defensive player of the year though, so expect the Badger big men to struggle with the 6’11 junior.
Who’d win in a mascot fight?: I’m done with the panther fight. Badger forfeits due to apathy.
One interesting major: Juvenile Justice Forensic Psychology
One fact to help you win your local trivia night: In no way a fun fact, but two cheerleaders have been paralyzed in the last ten years during cheer practices.
Prediction: Okay, now this should be the blow out over the winter break. Prairie View was only 3-13 away from home last year and now have lost four starters including their two top scorers. Montgomery will do some damage, but I see the Badgers winning very comfortably in this one.
