Message: [QUOTE="gsmooth, post: 4889340, member: 9355"] Ighodaro is definitely a center in the college game, But he is not a guy that will post you up or back you down with power. Kalkbrenner has good metrics when posting up. Having said that, I think UConn got too concerned with doubling him and it made the rest of the defense scramble and lose the other shooters way too easily. In the first game at Gampel, they didn't double Kalkbrenner at all, even when Samson was guarding him. Their defense was impeccable as far as their rotations and their recovery. Creighton is a very good team that now has a 7-2 record against UConn, but I would welcome a rubber match in the BET. And no I didn't fear playing them last year in the NCAAT final either-I think UConn would've beaten them with the out of conference officiating. In fact I thought UConn should have won last year in Omaha. This year, not so much. Creighton played well and deserved the victory. [/QUOTE]
