UConn vs Creighton this Sunday

[Omaha-Jays]

I am worried UConn will give the Jays the same issue with length/athleticism that Kansas and Marquette gave them. I do think we are a really good squad, but teams with length have given us fits our two real games this year.

Not going to anticipate a win bc I know UConn has legit talent. What I do think Husky fans that haven't watched us before will see is that we play a pretty entertaining brand of ball.

Looking forward to Sunday!

This isn't your father's BE.

@Palatine not mad.

would you have preferred the first game be against a team from dallas? or houston? or tulsa? or new orleans? or central florida? or southern florida? or eastern carolina?

You will know within the first 5 min of the game if you are going to beat them. In the first game last yr once I noticed they couldn't stop Duke, PC controlled the whole game until Zeg hit a buzzer beater. At the dunk, once Watson established himself within the first 3 minutes of the game PC smoked them by like 25.

No one on Creighton can guard Bouknight

My wife said to me last night, you psyched for the UConn game Sunday.. I said.. What UConn game????? I thought we weren't playing until Wednesday, this 2nd stoppage has thrown me into a bit of a basketball funk. Husky hoops then Red Zone, perfect Sunday.

Many Husky fans like college basketball enough to know about Creighton. Even more now as we share the same league but even prior I’ve had respect for the program and style.

Only thing I’m afraid of is our guys haven’t played and they hadn’t found the chemistry after 3 games prior to the 2 week layoff. Will be a tough task for our Huskies but no matter they need games. Our guards will have trouble defending the Jays but we will see as this is a major test immediately.

Just get it in, and get better from this game thats the main goal and hopefully win.

That was my motive every Saturday night in college.

Lol but did it really matter to you then if you got better?

 

[BlueDogs]

Going to be some rust. The guys will need to turn the intensity level to 11, out work them on D and on the glass and will their way to a W.

 

[Umami Zen]

Small ball Nova type of offense.. Can our D be good/disruptive enough?? The kind of home game a crowd could have helped with.. Our depth will be key.. Expecting Martin and Jackson.. Their length and athleticism.. To have impact with perimeter D..

If that's the case then I want to see him impose his will and take over the entire game. He is going to have to learn how to do that, so might as well start now.

 

[Palatine]

I prefer something more long these lines.

We have some really good side pieces as well. If Bouknight can really starts taking over games it will open up opportunities for other players such as cole and gaffney to shine as most likely all attention goes to stopping Bouk. Which I expect they will still not be able to do.

Thing is the Blue Jays in my backyard seem fine with the snow

There isn't all that much difference. Except we will find the BE much easier.

This is such a strange hill to die on but you do you

Thanks to the better players we have/will recruit due to the switch.

Laughable

Palatine and Freescooter have been dying on this hill for years. It's like they're in competition for worst boneyard poster, always trying to one up each other.
