Marquette is going to be a tough game....

Every BE game is a tough game, especially on the road. Marquette will be no different.
any team that can have multiple guys put up 30 pts because of lethal 3pt shooting is dangerous. teams tend to shoot pretty well against us from deep.
wondering if jordan walker can get some time against the equally as small Rousey.

We should absolutely win. Play our game, control the offensive glass and make their guards defend us and get into foul trouble. No Big East game is a gimme, but certain teams are generally easier than others and we tend to match up well with. Willard should have a good game plan and the team is on a roll with confidence.
We should win. We guard threes poorly and they shoot them great. A team with a few kids who can hit threes in bunches can be murder if they are hot. We are better. I took them lightly last yr. Not this time around.
I though Howard was undervalued in the BE preseason . Great player, and rowsey very dangerous.

I was thinking that Cale should also get a shot at defending Howard!
The College Basketball Power Index (BPI) is a measure of team strength that is meant to be the best predictor of performance going forward. BPI represents how many points above or below average a team is. Strength of Record (SOR) is a measure of team accomplishment based on how difficult a team's W-L record is to achieve. Game predictions account for opponent strength, pace of play, site, travel distance, day's rest and altitude, and are used to simulate the season 10,000 times to produce season projections. Numbers update daily.
Put all three..change it up on Howard..tire him out with Ish, Walker and Cal..throw Deeno in...but the other two shooters can be dangerous.. hopefully one of them have a off night..so pick your poison.
Deeno and Powell on Rousey.... Desi and Ish on Hauser... Ish, Cale, Walker, Deeno on Howard.
Feed Angel all game.
It'll be close, but I think this team pulls it out.

Marquette is soft. Push hem around and get in heir face and they will get rattled. This squad has been doing that to them for 3years now. But give them any kind of space and they will hit 3's and then it could spiral out of control.
Let Ish plays his defense and give the ball into Delgado. Marquette wants none of either

Winning Saturday was amazing. Winning tomorrow would be more amazing. Road wins in the Big East are rare. Having seniors who have played in hostile environments for years cannot be understated. No substitute for experience. That, and I bet they are still pissed off about how the last 5 minutes played out at Rutgers. I think that will help out all season.
If we shut them down early, get their guys into foul trouble (they will pick up ticky tacky fouls if they are pressured in the paint) they will back off a little then we have them. Get Howard with two early Hauser the same thing. They will not be able to make their outside work for them.
Extremley hard to win back to back road games in BE but would have a lot of value in league and in eyes of NCAA Committee. This year they start classifying Road Wins vs Top 75 as a Tier 1 Win same as a Home Win vs Top 30.
Really think we need to get something from the bench in this one. Need to throw everything we have at Howard to slow him down. When he plays off the ball, deny him the ball. And if they use him to bring it up court, pressure him with Walker. And if he keeps driving to the hoop, I want to see us make it tough for him. Like to see Ish go for the ball but go hard. Make him earn it.

LOL, I was sure you put a typo in there Dan until I checked it... 51 for 51 from the line. Now that is some clutch FT shooting by your best player...wow.
Tonite is the perfect time for Walker to show his wares-- shut down Rowdy and let the Myles handle Howard and just pound it in
