I'm not "good at betting", but that line seems to scream us.

For what it's worth, kenpom projects a 5-pt Friars win

This game will give us a good indication of what kind of team we have. I am willing to give the first 5 games a "mulligan" if we win this one. However, part of me says that we can get blown out by 20 if we continue to play like we have. After watching the game against Morgan St., I am not impressed. Everyone just looks so tentative on the floor. I am not sure if SZ is an asset for us on the floor, or a liability. I like the fact that Rohan got more minutes. He gives us more quickness, but we give up some height. One thing I noticed as well...when Garland took a breather in the 2nd half, we had a nice run. TD took control, and the D stepped up. Should be an interesting game. Hopefully we end up with a nice W against a 5-0 team

I just want the team to watch the Ole Miss game and listen to the comments by Steve Kerr. Every time he said the momentum was headed to Ole Miss our team made him look foolish. We need to regain that magic. Each of the juniors and seniors needs to pick up there game to makeup for the loss of Ramon. Khalid Lewis needs to play solid shutdown defense like Sam Mills. We play "team ball" with confidence and we win this one by double digits.
The coaches need to get these guys prepared to win.

It is sit around the perimeter and take someone off the dribble or dump it down the post and watch.. I am not saying that taking off the dribble is a bad thing especially considering the new rules.. It requires teams to play on their heels.. Garland was so dangerous when he would back cut.. He would do it at least 2 times a game last season!

Play with confidence. Hit shots. Win. Better D would help, but its the missed shots-open 3s and plays to the rim that r killing us and making D work harder than it should have to.
