1. The floor is raised on both sides. Fans sit right there and bang on the floor as well as it being a distraction ... Call it the fall off factor.
2. The benches are under the baskets. Another strange distraction. Think about how different those two things are for a visiting team.
Factor in opening game of the season with 14,000 hostile fans ... Not sure which paper Pesiks referring to but we could loose easily.

roster makeup is the paper....Jordan Wright and liam robbins (who had a poor year last year- but touted 2 years ago) are the only 2 players of note returning and neither are that notable.. they are projected dead last in the SEC.. 8 of their 13 players are non blue chip freshmen or mid major transfers with not that notable stats (like 10 per game from greenbay )..you will be their 1st game in d1 or high major

on paper memphis should blow them out, your roster talent far outweighs theirs and you have tournament aspirations a universal top 45 team....but i also agreed that memphis could easily lose the game, thats why i said it was a tossup.. memphis has a history of struggling in the nonconference
