They have a couple of guys with green lights to just shoot (Ky Bowman, Deontae Hawkins,  Jerome Robinson) and are just fast paced in general.

Plays mostly man but after made baskets or especially made FTs, they will run a 1-2-2 soft zone press.

Get Roby back for the home game against Minnesota. We'll need him then and during the Minny/Crayton/Kansas stretch.

 

Yeah, if Zay's out against MSU, that will likely be all right since MSU will be tough to beat either way. Then the stretch of those three games within the state of Nebraska will be what's next.

I think we match up pretty well to BC, but it's important to remember that our 2nd half meltdown against LBS was because of our bigs' foul trouble, not necessarily Roby's injury.  We need to have Jordy play over 20min to be disruptive on the defensive end.  If that means more zone, so be it.  We need to protect those guys a bit against quicker, undersized centers.  

 

Watson - Allen (Taylor)

Palmer - Gill (Taylor) 

Taylor (Palmer) - I wouldn't mind seeing Nana get a look here.  He might not be quite where he needs to be mentally, but he doesn't look afraid when he's out there--far from it.  

Copeland - McVeigh

Jordy - Duby ... can't emphasize this enough... even if they both foul out, LET THEM FOUL OUT.

Just not in the first half though.  Foul out that is...

This is a team with a very short bench.  They basically go 6 1/2 deep.  

 

Five starters AVERAGE right at 30 minutes each.

 

They bring 2 guys off the bench who are getting double figure minutes.  One plays about 24 1/2 min/game; the other plays about 12 1/2 min/game.

 

No one else really factors into their minutes.

 

A pressing team that plays up-tempo with only 7 guys in the other-than-garbage rotation?  Wow.  The final 5 minutes, their legs should be gone.

 

They've played a bunch of nobodies outside of the two teams they lost to.  They got stomped at Providence by 20 and lost by 11 to Texas Tech.

Let's not go crazy here...

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (starts chain saw)

 

If you think this team can recover from an 0-5 stretch, by all means. We'll see what happens. They shouldn't lose at home to BC. Shouldn't.

If we're talking about last year's BC team or more importantly, the year before that, yes I'd agree with you this game should be a tap-in.  But it appears this year's Eagles team is at least competent and should be a tossup type game for us.

 

Hopefully we'll continue our above average shooting for tonight.

It's a road game and they haven't won one in 2.5 years and they're coming off a game where Providence housed them.

 

Well...... when you put it that way..... :mellow:

 

Honestly this is an interesting game from fans perspective.  You have two teams in desperate need to "show something."  Both teams need to beat the other if they want to do much of anything this year.  You also have two fan bases that are really wanting something good to happen, and they are looking at this game as a "must win" to do something with the year, yet are still skeptical if they can actually compete and win it.  Should be a fun time.
