re: Bama vs Creighton discussion

San Diego St and Long Beach are two. They did beat Wichita on road.

Lobster and I have a strong hate for Creighton. McDermott is a huge prick

Yeah,I red his quote,at the end if the day you play for fricking Creighton dood,please stfu.....

i didnt see this in here. interesting stuff.

quote:

---

"I don't think I've faced a longer or more athletic team than Long Beach," McDermott said. "They start two wings that are 6-6 and athletic. Those guys caused me some problems."

---

quote:

---

"I assume we're going to see some full-court pressure, and it's going to be important that we attack that pressure," Creighton coach Greg McDermott said. "Any team that presses loves to see a team that's back on its heels and tentative.

---

quote:

---

We have to do everything we can to get that tempo going," Gibbs said. "We need to push it every time we get an opportunity and get easy baskets. We've really been good offensively when we've emphasized getting the ball up and down.

---

i'd really like to see Levi defend him.

i've said before that i'd like to see cooper start this game and really get involved by defending McDermott.

FTR im scouting UNC... we are gonna throttle CU. Not just because we are bigger and more athletic and play lock down D and defend the 3 well. Them crackpots actually consider themselves the favorite. Not to mention they want to play up tempo ball and man to man D.. If you're not a zoning team its hard to play and execute it well especially this late in the game.

Bama by double digits easy.

quote:

---

Echenique will I think. With McDermott taking Jacobs. Jacobs is good offensively but doesn't have the game that draws fouls and is not physical. On the other end Echenique will probably abuse Jaccobs on the offensive boards.

---

If the starting lineup has Jacobs in it i might just turn off my TV

quote:

---

Jacobs has to start if Green is guarding McDermott

---

maybe. but thats only if we take JaMychal at his word that he will be guarding McDermott. i dont think its the best matchup for us, because of the danger of getting Green in foul trouble, but im not the coach.

Bama beat Wichita St., who blasted this Creighton team.

I'm having a hard time picking this game on my bracket. What is the general feeling from you Bama fans?

---

we're bama fans, bro. you know we think we're gonna win. but seriously this is a tough job for the tide. McDermott is the leading scorer among all players in the tournament. it will probably come down to whether or not Creighton is hitting their threes.

all the bama hoops fans are salivating at the idea that the Blue Jays are going to play man to man. we should win if they do that.
