So now we have a feel for what the team is and can be.  I think we can safely view St. Joes as an aberration and wake up call.  Team showed a lot of grit coming back against Xavier and hopefully learned some valuable lessons about winning time.  It showed on Sunday.  Put the foot on the throat and don't let up.

Next up, Maine.  Potential let up game, so let's see if they bring their A game.  Can win this easily with a B game.  Same with Iona.  But I want to see that killer instinct they had against Miami.  That trends towards: Indiana.

Indiana, a 9:00 PM game on ESPN.  This should be our "we're back" moment on a national stage.  IU is 5-0 against a weak schedule.

Three more easy games against St. Peters, UNH and NJIT before we start league play on New Year's Day against Cincinnati.  Hopefully we can go into that game at 10-2.  I'm feeling good about league play.  I think we may have as much talent as anyone, if not the most experienced talent.

[*]Cinci plays Xavier and Vermont before then, good measuring stick opportunities. 
[*]USF doesn't impress, especially without Yetna.
[*]WSU has a murderer's row slate coming up with Ok State, OU and VCU.  Let's see how they fare.
[*]Houston looks down to me.  Losing to BYU and getting handled by Oregon.  Ok State game is big.
[*]Temple beat USCw and faces Maryland Thursday.
