Duke and UNC are the class of the field and it’s not even close. Kreist if Brandon Clarke has a merely good game instead of an all time great game, Gonzaga gets bounced by a shitty Baylor team tonight. Virginia can’t score. They’ll be on upset alert tomorrow, again. Kentucky is nothing special. Tenn isn’t either.
However... there is Oregon. Sure they haven’t played a real top 25 team during their run. But every game they play during their run is the same. A low scoring, tight first half followed by a slow to build but eventual 2nd half steam roll. Those dudes are in shape. Altman must have them running lines before, during and after practice.
They remind me of Kimba Walkers UCONN team that won the Natty. I’m not saying they’re gonna win a Natty, so don’t twist. -
Depends on how early Roy presses.
If he presses early and often, as he should, we won't get close to covering.
If he gets cocky and thinks they can just beat us straight up, we cover and might win the damn game.
I'm guessing he presses for 30+ plus and beats us by 30+.
But if he doesn't...

11.5 is a lot of points. I think we cover and the game will be close.

They’ll press from the get go and their gonna try to run the pace up as fast as possible. We’re going to be trying to do the opposite: number of possessions and points in the paint will dictate who wins this game.HillsboroDuck said:Depends on how early Roy presses.

It really depends on if crisp fouls out early. If he does, we cover, if he somehow stays in the game no chance in hell

Roy would be a complete moron not to press us all game, but I wouldn’t put it past him.

Legends are built from the efforts of teams that overachieve in moments of opportunity. By rights, UNC should win handily. But Hopkins has been in big games for decades and knows UNC. We need big games from everyone but upsets happen!

If I were a college coach. I would go to the other teams board right away and you can usually find the weaknesses without even having to watch film. The two ways to beat us are the full court press. And get the ball in low with 2 on Dickerson/Timmins/Wright. That's so easy to do, yet teams don't really try. UNC has the talent to do it all game long.HillsboroDuck said:Depends on how early Roy presses.

Well one thing in UW favor is upsets generally come from experienced teams full of seniors. We are that at least. I'm not hopeful, but I think the line is lower because we beat Utah State by 17. The game wasn't that out of hand. But I would bet the Vegas sharps have never seen UW play until Friday.Shenexon said:Legends are built from the efforts of teams that overachieve in moments of opportunity.

It blows my mind that teams haven't utilized it more, there hasn't been a single time we even looked mediocre vs it, pretty patheticHillsboroDuck said:Depends on how early Roy presses.
