UCLA vs Gonzaga

[Huskyforlife]

We only saw Diarra for a handful of minutes today. We may need to see much more of him Saturday to deal with Campbell.

Fresh legs Diarra giving Campbell a hard time sounds like a good idea to me. Just gotta get a lead with Newton in so his lack of offense doesn’t bite us.

How is this game even close? Is Tennessee really this bad?

Air tight D which is great , but offensively not all that. FAU playing them tougher than Duke, go figure

Either one would be our toughest matchup of the season, but I think Gonzaga would be our best matchup. They’re two really good teams and they have experience

Not sure either is tougher than Bama and we dusted them. Bring ‘em on

 

[uconngb]

I want Gonzaga. Sanogo will eat Timme’s lunch down low. He looks totally disinterested on the defensive end of the floor.

Sanogo will school Timme

UCLA will be like a road game

 

[gsmooth]

UCLA will be like a road game

Correct. But so would Gonzaga. Both teams fan bases travel well to Vegas

 

[Waquoit]

Who do we match up better with? Both are going to be difficult.

Arkansas was going to be difficult.

We've reached a point where I don't really care -- if you're going to win, you're going to have to beat someone good. We can beat anyone.

The only thing I want is 15 overtimes.

Gonzaga is not FF worthy this year. Average defense at best, weak conference inflated a lot of their metrics, etc. UConn vs UCLA would be a beast matchup.

I would like to play a “not FF worthy” team…checks notes…with the FF on the line.

PSA - FAU v KSU at the Garden if anyone has $20 burning a hole in their pocket.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Which mustache would you rather ride? The UCLA pirate flag Jacquez or the Pacific Northwest lumberjack Timme?

I’d rather play Gonzaga. They’re soft and do not have the size to battle our bigs.

But I’m down for whoever. Bring it on.

To deal with Tyger Campbell? Really?

 

[Jaker]

FAU has some quick guards

But I’m down for whoever. Bring it on.

I mean, UCLA is getting slaughtered on the boards. If their big is still injured, that's going to be a real problem for them.

Florida Atlantic and Jalen Gaffney about joinhis former teammates in Elite 8

Timme has 31 pts. No one else has more than 7. He's not getting any help.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Rough night for the SEC.

 

[gsmooth]

Timme is a big time baller

 

[SoFla Steve]

FAU beats Tennessee!! Huge upset!!

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Timme is a big time baller

How is it possible for him to pick up his first foul 32 minutes into the game?

 

[Dove]

2 SEC teams down tonight

 

[RichCTBB]

Maybe the strategy was probably to let Timme have his and shut down everyone else?
Either way, both teams are expending ALOT of energy.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

2 SEC teams down tonight

And the B-10 out of the tournament.

I have decided Gonzaga. The answer is Gonzaga.

Actually UCLA. Not enough firepower or inside presence.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

FAU/TN was fun to watch but a thoroughly unimpressive showing by both teams. KSU ended up with a real nice draw.

 

[Dove]

How is this game even close? Is Tennessee really this bad?

They looked vacant

 

[CTBasketball]

They looked vacant

I laughed when that European dude went straight up MMA John Jones on the FAU center. Talk about dumb.

 

[SouleMan]

I agree. I'll let you know if I change my mind by the end of the game.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Love watching the leprechaun shrivel up in the moment.

 

[AdamaNation]

I hope it's UCLA just to play against Mick.

And keep the redemption tour going. Big ups Alterique!!!!!!

They did beat Kentucky and Mich St.. that is not easy. But yes I might put $ on Kansas st
