All Lobos, including Abbie Letz and her sore back, looked good during shoot around.
The only pre-game surprise is the Lobos' starting lineup.
Coach Don Flanagan can change his mind at the last second, but it appears he will be starting senior Judy Vogt in place of sophomore Brandi Kimble. He started Vogt in the second half against Florida and she played most of the game. She responded with eight assists, while Kimble struggled under the Gators' pressure.
I think the Lobos need Kimble to play well off the bench, along with contributions from Julie Briody to win this game. We'll see what happens.
I also just got off the phone with the UNM Ticket Office. They expect an all out blitz on regional tickets if the Lobos win tonight.
They encourage fans to buy online tonight or risk huge lines Tuesday morning.
Check back at halftime for another update.
