In what will go down as one of the true statement games for any City Six school this season, Temple thumped UMass at the Liacouras Center today, 98-89.

That's a pretty effective way of shutting the other guy up if you ask me.
But here's something to shout about: the combined attendance for the five Division I games that took place in Philadelphia over the weekend (Penn vs. Dartmouth and Harvard, St. Joe's-La Salle, Delaware-Drexel and UMass-Temple) was 28,994 fans.
It's a great sign that college basketball is alive and well in this town.
