It’s UConn/USC on Thursday

[87Xfer]

thanks! how does one gain access to this portal? and if the answer is "you don't", is posting this kosher?

in any case, that makes sense, Dan Hurley wanted more practice time. so looking for a game on 12/7 makes more sense than scrambling to plug a 12/1 hole in the schedule. strangley, i still think Dan Hurley knows what he's doing.

I’m honestly surprised USC is so low on everyone’s list. Don’t know much about them other than the Mobley brothers and Eady, but would think with those 3 they’d give the weak PAC12 a run

It might have something to do with the fact that Andy Enfield is a terrible coach.

Good recruiter though.

Now that I've said that they'll shoot 70% from the floor and win by 25.

Somebody in this league needs to take the bull by the horns. Practice up and take 2 P5 scalps. Then all is well.

Yeah my confidence in this USC game has gone down a bit. USC has a game under its belt in the bubble and looks rather good. Especially Mobley. With the team chemistry not quite there yet, I’m a bit bearish on Thursday’s matchup

USC's up big on BYU right now

 

[CTGoonie]

USC up 56 -32 on BYU. BYU not shooting well at all. I haven't watched enough to see if that is on them or if USC is just good at D.

I've been watching intermittently, but I'd say a combination of both. BYU has gotten some good looks and are missing, but USC is pretty tough down low on D

 

[BFieldHusky]

Looks like we got the right matchup in USC on Thursday night.

 

[UconnU]

Holy hell they look phenomenal right now.

 

[Ajs120102]

Anyone have ideas on potential lineups?

BYU has missed the most wide open shots I have ever seen. USC plays zero defense and sucks at rebounding. We should win this game

 

[SL Husky]

I may have said, in this thread or another, that BYU was potentially a better game than USC. I will eat any and all crow about that.

On the bright side, USC is going to be overconfident and is getting all the good shooting out of their system. USC is good defensively at the rim, but not as good as BYU is making them look. Younger Mobley looks like a lottery pick.

Looks like a lottery pick? He’s projected top 3

They mentioned on the broadcast that he was like 15 or something as of now. But i could've also misheard. Either way, he's definitely a good player and will be tough to guard.

The ESPN NBA draft has him #4.... updated a week ago. They have Bouk at #17.

sanogo/mobley should be fun

i have zero faith in carlton

 

[nashusky109]

I missed the game today but am very interested in this matchup. Does anyone have a scouting report/game preview for Thursdays game?

 

[Austin316]

but we have both as options which is good.

Is Akok game time decision or is he definitely out until BE play? I saw he’s cleared for 5v5

 

[CTBasketball]

We will press them to death. They’re guards and forwards can’t hang with ours. Center they have the advantage but let them.
