Message: [QUOTE="CardiacCuse, post: 5561824, member: 6979"] buffalo is 3-0 (just beat depaul) so theres also that i think the size of the SU players (shortest player is 6'3...they basically have an NBA sized team) combined with dogged effort is going to mean good defense all season the impact of the length of the team cant be underestimated imo having guys like girard and carlos and playing guys like bell and taylor as forwards...plus the matador that was lampkin...made it impossible to really do much on d lately...being short/small really negatively impacts defense one big (important) difference I have seen so far is no easy uncontested dunks/layups...when an opponent gets close to basket...SU either blocks the shot or fouls, mostly. which is huge. used to drive me crazy the last years watching opponents waltz through the line like a fashion runway all that said, of course, will still have to see it against p4 teams to be sure [/QUOTE]
