1. After what looked to be an "I don't give a damn" effort against Maine, it was nice to see Josh Carlton come out last night and decide "I am going to be a man." I have said it before and I'll say it again -- I understand Carlton is not an explosive athlete, but if he simply plays to his potential most nights, this is going to be a very good team. And, unlike every other player, no one else can give us what he gives us.
2. It's nice to have 6 guys who can give you double figure points, hoping that we'll soon have a 7th in Akok, because it means if you have a night where one is invisible (Bouknight) and one plays horrifically (Adams), you still have enough other places you can look to for points. The last time we could say that, not surprisingly, was the last year we went to the NCAAs.
I don't think we beat Indiana if they play as well as they did against FSU. Having said that, I will be disappointed if they shoot lights out like that against our defense, and this game means more to us than it does to them. Let's see what happens.
