ND=Win, Cincy good test

[Cuse4]

Really can't see ND giving us much of a contest... Cincy on the other hand, good homecourt, crowd gets into it... Rebound margin will definitely be much closer than today, Cincy is pretty small... Need to find the shooters like we did most of tonight... Dixon and Kilpatrick can shoot it... don't think they really have a guy they can flash at the FT line, unless they put Gates there, but then there's not a guy that can finish down low, even if he finds somebody down there(and it will get blocked)... thoughts?

Well. I'll be in the student section so it will really be a home game for 'Cuse Remember Ohio and New York both border the same lake.

The find the shooters thing is a problem. Dixon and Kilpatrick can fill it. Dixon is a hot/cold guy and let's hope he's cold. Also, if #44 (Parker) is in the game, it could be bad for us. He's shooting 57% from three for the year in limited minutes. In the pregame against Nova Saturday, I watched him make 22 in a row. Only other players I have ever seen make that many consecutively in warmups are GMac and that kid ND had a couple years ago whose name is blocked from my memory.

The guy that can flash and hit the mid range is named Justin Jackson. Also, a little FYI, Yancy Gates is a 67% 3point shooter this year (2-3) and I would set the odds at 8-5 that he hits one against Syracuse. Just because I know he will.

What Cinci does not have at all, is quality depth, and I think thats how Syracuse gets the one next week, by wearing them out.

Haha yes Yancy Gates will absolutely hit one against us. You can bet the house on that.

Jackson will not hurt us whatsoever at the line... I think they'll flash Gates... maybe he'll hit a jumper or two, but Gates is softer than his appearance... Not worried
