    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!

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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 pathetic
