Actually, I thought ODU didn’t play too bad. Yes, they got the stuffing beat out of them on the scoreboard, but if a few baskets fell here and there it would have been a much closer game. ODU hustled, rebounded well against a much taller team, and played very good defense. The only problem — and it was a BIG problem — was that the ball simply didn’t go in the basket often enough. All year ODU will struggle with teams that have tall, athletic inside players. ODU simply can’t match that. Better days are ahead, I think.
