Message: [QUOTE="maple, post: 5120008, member: 7970"] Good write-up as always. People at the Syracuse game told me that UConn will steamroll FDU. I am never one to take any win for granted, but the eye test from yesterday has me inclined to agree with them. FDU will play hard no matter what, but they are going to be in over their heads with the height mismatches and overall talent discrepancy and athleticism. Expect FDU to hit a couple of 3s if/when they get open looks. But I wouldn't worry about it. We should be able to dominate in the paint and on rebounds. No need to go crazy from the perimeter. I foresee our defense generating a nice # of TOs and fast break points. This is the type of game where it should be a done deal at halftime and we can give the bench some nice minutes. EDIT: I just realized FDU is in the same conference as CCSU and Le Moyne (the lesser Syracuse team). I could potentially see them play three whole times this year if I wanted to go to their game at Le Moyne. :eek: [/QUOTE]
