Is this the same team that lost to Tulane?

ESPN picks us by 2, fwiw.

South Dakota State Jack Rabbits

Current KenPom #65

Again KenPom shows his preseason bias, which continues to shrink each week, but never seems to disappear completely.

65. SDSU has wins over Grand Canyon (136), Alabama State (323), Bemidji (NR), UT San Antonio (185), Missouri KC (278), Northern Illinois (151) and Colorado State (211). With losses to Florida GC (283) and Tulane (190).
Strength of Schedule 326

123. Memphis has wins over TN tech (327), Yale (86), Canisius (228) and losses to LSU (50), OKST (53), Charleston (117) and Texas Tech (11).
Strength of Schedule 46

What scares me the most is Mike Daum, 6'9" senior averaging 24 pts, 11 rebs per game and shoots 50% from 3 point range. Stop him, stop the Jack Rabbits.

Actually looks like an easy win for us if we switch people like Martin, Jones, Thornton and Davenport on Daum and don't make Parks or Maurice chase him around.

Yes.

Kenpom has us losing 79-78. They are a really good shooting team, averaging over 40% for the season. They have two guys averaging over 20 ppg. Daum is a 6'9" 240 lb F that averages a double-double (24/11) and shoots 41% from 3. The other is Jenkins, a 6'2" Freshman guard averaging 20.4 and shooting 46% from 3. They aren't very deep and aren't a good rebounding team overall. Guard the 3 and press them the whole game.

Thank you ch 30.

I would call this a must win

It's a game we should lose on paper. This is about the same level of team as Oklahoma State. It is not a must win.

It will get us back to .500 and should allow for a 8-5 record by the time conference play starts.

and give us a confidence boost knowing we played a tough opening schedule and several neutral / road games vs. running up a record on cakes

Just an FYI for those who can't attend the game, DirecTV is showing it will be aired on channel 789 - at least for out-of-towners.

Is there really a must win before January in college basketball?

This is a wannawinrealbad.

You don't have to worry about Parks or Maurice guarding him in the second half.

Also for future attendance and home court advantage (we need to establish you better be one of the top teams in the country to win here)
