Message: [QUOTE="Okafour rings, post: 4572916, member: 7715"] Okay all you Chicken Littles, here is how it's going to play out on Friday: Iona will try to press after made baskets, of which there are not going to be nearly enough to give Iona a chance to win. When they do, UConn will break it by Newton passing over midcourt to a waiting Karaban who then finds Hawkins wide open on the perimeter for a 3-point SWISH! After 3 or 4 of these, JH will be closely guarded, freeing up Adama inside for the easy bucket. Adama will shoot 9-10 free throws as Iona's absolutely raw 7-footers can only stop him by fouling. Adama finishes with 24+ points. UConn is up by 12 at the half; Hurley is not about to let up on the gas in the second half since he learned his lesson against Providence (no slowdowns), so the lead grows to 20 points with 2:00 left when he brings in the subs and the final score is a 15-point win for the Huskies. Georgetown and St Johns rethink their offer to Pitino. [/QUOTE]
