Temple game thread

I don't want to sound too optimistic, but this is a team that looks like they can put together a few wins come the AAC tournament

Or at the very least make me want to watch them play for 40 minutes

Good solid win. Seem to be coming together.

I like where we are going. This is turning into a team.

First regular season win over Temple since Shabazz, which is nuts.

Wonder if Killings had any helpful insights. They really shut down a couple of the Temple guys.

UConn looking like UConn again. Good to see.

 

[Jaker]

Hope they can keep it going and pound Gtown

Uconn wins out, 1 seed maybe...

This is the kind of game where you start to realize the pros of having a smaller team. Only 7 players regularly see the floor (even Vital mainly stays on the bench) and that allows the team chemistry to build very quickly. On top of that, the 6-7 players who see playing time see a lot of playing time so they have more of an opportunity to get better than on a team with a deeper squad. If we beat Georgetown and SMU, there is a good chance we may not lose for a while.

Wooden didn't play a lot of guys.

Purvis very quietly came close to the team's 3rd double double of the night.
