Message: [QUOTE="Jletoile, post: 4257514, member: 9915"] IU is a well-coached, veteran team. I've seen them a dozen or so times on TV the last couple of years. They won't necessarily wow you physically, but they play the game "properly", i.e., movement, hit the open man, make the extra pass, etc. I consider them a cut above the average BEast team and expect them to give a very good account of themselves Saturday. Their bigs aren't "elite big" size-wise, but they are more than competent and are tricky with the step-through move, which concerns me re: our bigs committing fouls. Their backcourt, led by Berger, is competent. I believe UConn is the more-talented team overall, with more size and depth, with the unfair (but hey, it's WCB) crowd advantage, and expect (hope) they win by 10, 76-66. I also believe the Hoosiers are the type of opponent against which both Nika and Caroline will do well. [/QUOTE]
