I imagine it'll be a very ugly game. If we're going to win we are going to have to slow down the tempo and keep the score in the 50's.

Judging from your recent games, Memphis is a smallish team that likes to facilitate a five-out sort of offense with D. Lawson as a point forward. I'm not sure what Ollie will do, but if it were me I would stick Facey on D. Lawson, go under ball screens and try to hide Brimah on a guard like Rivers or Martin.

What can I expect in this upcoming matchup?

1) Early foul trouble from Brimah
2) A 5-8 minute scoring drought in the 1st half
3) A 5-8 minute scoring drought in the 2nd half
4) 2 airballs from Vance
5) 1 side of the backboard 3 from either Vance, Purvis, or Vital
6) 4 fouls on Enoch when he is trying to position himself on offense or go for a rebound

Did I miss anything?

Have you seen Lawson play? Not only can he score and rebound inside but he finds open men, starts fast breaks the list goes on. Oh, he's only an Ok free throw shooter. Memphis is not a juggernaught but if you're asking what can be expected then the answer is just what we've seen so far this year and probably worse.

Meh

Knowing UConn they are probably going to come into FedEx red hot like always. Sigh

You pretty much nailed it. Add in a step on the endline and tremendous difficulty inbounding the ball and I think you've got it covered.

Crappy fans!

Yeah it's my fault this team has sucked the last three years, not your boyfriend Ollie.

The crappy fan is the one who is accepting of the programs direction.

Didn't say it was your fault, how could it be you're nobody? You just have no clue but keep up the good work. Where were you Scootin' when he won the NC, just curious. You decided to bring your spew the year he loses 3 players 3-4 games into the year for the whole season? C'mon we can't figure out what kind of fan you are. Unless of course you're 12 years old?
