Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2584698, member: 488"] Guard play wins in March. It's been proven time and time again. Who is playing better over the last 24 hours than Jalen Adams? Nobody in this conference, that's for sure. Cincinnati is struggling with Wichita State at home after just losing to Houston a few days ago. I would pick UConn to pull off the upset on Thursday, but can you even call it an upset at this point? The wheels are falling off early this year [USER=3624]@kobe[/USER] "Look at where we're ranked on KenPom." No. We're clearly a different team right now. Tyler Polley has hit six threes in a row. That sort of thing becomes tougher to game plan for when he's just abruptly unleashed on the college basketball world. Losing coaches play their best players in meaningless January games and then the book is out on them by March. That pick and pop with Adams and Larrier/Polley looks like a nightmare to guard right now. Larrier is beginning to see more clearly out of that mask and he's taking aim for the Bearcats next (with a team called the Bearcats, you know they don't have an identity - we have ours). 2011. 2014. You can fill in the blanks. Preseason almost over. Rest of the country better take cover. East Carolina found out the hard way that you'd rather get us early and if you get us down you better put us away. [/QUOTE]
