Tonight begins the infamous South Texas swing that has been less than kind to the Scorps over the past two seasons.
Last season the Scorps were a combined 2-3-1 on the road against Southeast Division foes (not counting Austin). Those two wins came in the second half against struggling Corpus and RGV squads. The Scorps managed just one point in their four-game swing during late November.
In 06-07, the Scorps went 0-3 in their only trip down south, getting outscored 14-5 in the process.
Add to all of this that the Scorps have never won a game at the Laredo Entertainment Center, and I say that it's time for some change! Randy Murphy's guys definitely have the odds stacked against them this weekend, but if that game in OKC is any indicator, this team is capable of defying those odds. Also, as Joy Lindsay noted, tonight is the first meeting between the two sides since youtubefest last year (see below). All of the main parties have since departed, but you know Murph would like to improve on his club's 2-8-1 record against the Bucks, and if that memory provides the spark, sobeit.
