Basketball RPI

Man - I sooo wish this game was in the Cajundome... It would be rockin'!

Yep. It appears that GSU is selling out literally and figuratively on this game. They will be to capacity and they are putting all marketing efforts into to boot. They want this one bad. If for no other reason, just because they hate us and hate Marlin at least according to their fan site.

Play our game - our D - start to finish - Cajuns will be fine. Somebody will step up from 3... great thing is we never know who it will be. As long as the refs let them play basketball, I think they are in for a surprise in that somebody can slow down Demarcus.

I believe that they will start out HOT. I can see them coming out a half step quicker than us just due to being amped up at home. We need to weather that storm for the first 4-5 minutes or so and play poised. Need to stay out of foul trouble though. I don't think we are as deep as some think we are, at least not when it comes to productivity and reliability off the bench.

Foul trouble will be the key - gotta stay out of it. Have to be able to let Bartley man up on D'marcus (my assumption that will be his assignment). We will have to have someone be hot from 3.

Prediction: Cajuns by 11.

Make them come inside for points. No jumpers and three pointers.

We will have to shoot well from the perimeter. GSU is almost strictly a zone team. If we penetrate and kick out, we have to knock them down.

[CrazyCajun]

Agreed. But at this point we still have games against numbers 2,3,4,5 consecutively. A loss tomorrow night could make it nteresting.

And now it’s interesting

Next person to bring up making it as an at large needs to share their weed with us all.

Yup.....

No one who seriously thought there was ever anything more than a zero percent chance of us earning an at-large berth had any understanding of how things work anyway.
