How do we match up vs Dayton?

Dayton is an interesting team.

They go like 10-11 deep and are constantly running guys in and out. They love to play up temp and want the game in the 70's and 80's. Defensively they play a pretty aggressive man to man and will pressure you all game.

They dont really have a "go to guy" as they take the approach of all pitch in to beat you.

The way you beat them is to slow it up and meat grind them. St. Joes beat them three times doing this.

Would you guess they try and play their game and run uptempo vs us or will they try and avoid letting us out on the break like 95% of the teams we've faced.

I think they go with what works for them and take their chances we shoot it poorly.Remember we almost faced this team in Maui as they got picked off by Baylor in the semi finals.

Its pick your poison really. Either we face an Ohio State team that is pretty tournament tested but very offensively challenged or a Dayton team that is NCAA inexperienced but can score points.

I still am rooting for Dayton obviously.
