We will look good Sunday. We are different animal at home. The problem is the tournament is not at NKU this year.

100% dude. I was with 8 buddies for the game and that's exactly what I said. I was with a Duke fan too talking us up saying we have weapons to answer this year and then we stall out and look like we did for the past 12 years. Again, it's fine we lost to go a good team, but it just put all confidence in my mind out the window that this team is different. IDK last night to me was just as depressing as I can remember.

According to Kenpom, Houston has the 21st most efficient defense, which is the second best (after UCF) that we have played this year. They're #6 in 2 point defense. They held Wichita St and Providence to under 60, and they held Arkansas to 65 in a game with 75 possessions (last night was 63 possessions). We didn't play well, especially on offense and rebounding, but that was a good defense on the other side. I'd say we got a taste of our own medicine.

the way they play defense, extremely physical with tons of grabbing and holding, it was very surprising to see mick refuse to let out guys run after the first 10 minutes. playing halfcourt vs the way they defend is just hell. once they got set up we couldn't get anything going. |
