  • 74-66 UAB
    This UAB team will be our 2nd toughest road game of the season. Behind Kansas.

  • Hmm.
    I get that we are very jekyll and hyde and can really suck at times.  And that we are on the road.  But why would they be our 2nd toughest road game?  Because of their 7 foot center?

    We suck at defense under the basket and the Miners haven't been able to stop smaller players so I think a 7 footer will be a huge obstacle.

    Because UAB is overall tough & favored to win CUSA. Long guards like we have, they hit their jumpers, & they have a huge 7' wrecking ball that eats out big kids for breakfast. Only chance we have is if Verho is 100%, our exterior D is quick, & we kid an extra kid to contribute in scoring.
    I'm not even sure if Boum is 100%. We shall see.

  • Didn't watch or hear game at all. I looked at box scores & saw crappy activity from those who I thought were brought here to help. Ugh. Anyone watch & can update?
