Doug Gottlieb just predicted us to get by Ashville. Surprisingly, he then picked Pitt to advance. My son just told me Pitt plays good defense, but if we can get Matt some open looks...

Honestly, if we can beat Ashville it would make this season even a little more unbelievable. Our first NCAA win in a quarter of a century. Seems like it should be a fairly even matchup. They have played some excellent teams- Georgetown, UNC, and Ohio State. Most impressive thing on their resume is an 11 point loss at Chapel Hill. They have no quality wins. We have one- Tulsa. There RPI is about 40 spots better than ours, but thats because they've played 3 Top 15 RPI teams.
Classic title for this post. I'm more worried about UNC-Ash right now. We'll worry about Goliath in due time.

Good defense?! If you go into the lane against Pitt, you are in a war zone.

We don't want to do that anyway. We went back to Steve's way of playing to win the Sun Belt tournament. Need to go back to jacking up threes against Pitt. Really are only chance would be coming out red hot.

Fifteen drives to the basket by Solo and we'll foul their entire front line out!
