A little early but since I live in Nashville now, thought I'd kick it off.

What do you guys got? Gotta win this one and will help since they beat Florida on Saturday.

Love the way our defense is playing and if Moses continues playing physical and with purpose, we should win.

What ya'll think? Anyone else been to a game here at Vandy? I've heard interesting things about the arena.

I would feel better if they hadn't just beaten Florida.

I do love the passionate Moses play of recent. I still feel like we have something missing but I'm hopeful.

It's one of the very few places we've been successful at as of late. Vandy couldn't miss from 3 against Florida, it'll all depend on how they shoot from three.

Scares me. But we've been playing MUCH better defense lately.

If we can buckle down and play disciplined, this team could make the sweet 16 with the right draw.

Bottom line...

First...We can't be as streaky on offense as we have been...wavering back and forth against Missouri and LSU of huge leads then it dwindling down to single digits.

Second...We have to guard their three point shot well. LaChance is shooting 56+% from behind the three point line and Fisher-Davis is shooting right at 40% on the season. We can't give those guys open shots from beyond the arc. Also have to guard their big white kid outside as well.

This one worries me a bit just because of our tendency to trap and leave someone open that can knock down a three.

If we limit their 3 ball we should be fine...as long as we are decent on offense. If they are getting open looks outside all game long then we will be in trouble. They hit 10 3's against Florida and that was the difference.

I actually feel better because of this, normally you have to use a lot of energy to get a win like that on the road. Would not be surprised if they came out flat to start the game. Still going to be tough either way because it is on the road.

As long as Macon isn't playing hero ball and shoots us out the game I like our chances

For sure. We key around him and Barford taking care of the ball and making good decisions.

If we can get those two consistently doing that, I like our chances down the stretch.
