Message: [QUOTE="Husky68, post: 3400608, member: 173"] I'm really concerned that the AAC is better than I thought (mid level teams are competitive so as a mid level team we have to bring it every game to have a chance to win). Went to the UCF @ Tulane game and sat right under the basket (for $5) and got a real up close look at the players, player movement, faking, physicalness of play, etc. and if UCF is the worst team int the league we will have a lot of tough games (right now by record they are). Tulane played ok but couldn't shoot, UCF moved the ball well, had real hard cuts and strong catches of the ball and rebounding. I poo hoo the coach K tree but Dawkins has these kids at UCF well coached. UCF had a sharp shooter and they worked real hard to get him the ball and at the least on most possessions it made Tulane account for that guy and opened up a lot of cuts and passes away from him. The sharp shooter never stood still and the Tulane guys were calling out where he was all the time so guys wouldn't switch off him to help. One thing I noticed was that under the basket a lot of close plays on drives and shots and rebounds were just good plays with a little contact which the refs didn't call and shouldn't have. I think on tv I overestimate how many fouls there are underneath, this game was played tough but not a lot of fouls. [/QUOTE]
