We just might get Gonzaga's A+ game but the question is...what if Alabama brings theirs?

They don't really matchup well with us honestly.

But only time will tell.

Well I know one thing, the Zags won't match the intensity on D or be as physical as Memphis. Can't touch it.

In that regard, things should look better for us on the offensive end Saturday.

The crowd will push them too.

RTR!

You know they don’t call Timme for anything. Dude travels and Hooks the whole game and never gets called.

If we both bring our A game we should win, I said I think we are the better team.

Interesting Torvik stat. We all talk about how we don't shoot midrange shots, but we also play defense in a way that encourages other teams to take them.

Long 2 Shots as a % of Shots - Defense
1. Western Carolina (38.4%)
2. Baylor (37.9%)
3. Davidson (37.7%)
3. Creighton (37.7%)
5. Purdue (37.0%)
6. Niagara (36.3%)
7. Penn State (36.0%)
8. Ohio State (35.8%)
9. Alabama (35.5%)
10. Air Force (35.4%)

Which dunk on our head was better, the Houston one or the Memphis one?

Because they were both pretty bad-arse (considering it wasn't our guy). I was sitting under the goal for the Memphis slam and wow, that was something. He got all of it.

I wonder how much of this is by design and how much is just natural tendencies from having to defend a rim & 3 offense in practice.
