We are loaded

Well, it is only Depaul, and the bench has played awesome

Every game is like this. This team has a chip on their shoulder. I hope we keep getting dissed.
 
I'm all in for an undefeated season.

I'm waiting until the Pitt game before I entertain thoughts of an undefeated season.

You see how UConn played at USF?
How Florida played at Rutgers?

BE road games are hard to win. If I remember correctly, we almost lost in DePaul in that awesome 2010 season (wasn't it like 55-53?).

This team is taking no prisoners this year.
 
The way we handled the ball in the first half is one of the reasons we lose to Louisville and Pitt. Pressure defense! We aren't careful with the ball. We should have 60+ points in the first half. We were good in the first half, not great. Only great teams wins championships. Too many 50/50 passes.

Pitt cant score with us.

They do have to work on how to beat the press. MCW is a one man press breaker when he's in there though.

I'd expect Pitt, Ville and UConn to press us.
 
This team is going to murder Pitt. Louisville will be among the prisoners taken as well. This team is only beginning to play well offensively. It takes some luck and some friendly bounces of the ball to win them all but this team could conceivably to it.
 
One game we have some turnovers and you come to that conclusion that we can't beat pressure. Especially with Dion and MCW the two guys who didn't play point when Triche and Scoop had a whole year doing so.

Depaul gave us alot of help. As well as our D.

Sometimes I think the zone comes out laxidasical not slowing down ball movement. Would like to see our zone create more ball fakes early on to frustrate the opposition.

Scoop has had a hard time in isolation today.
KJO and 2 out of three between KJO MCW and Dion having their way in isolation every game is so key just with ball movement and frustrating our opponents.
 
If we play to are potential every night, no one will beat us. Yet, every year it seems, no matter how good we are, we usually have at least 1-2 games when we dont show up.
