Need to get Merk's scouting report on Cal Poly. Saw we were a 22 point favorite so maybe a lot like HBU?

They were picked second to last in their conference preseason polls. On paper they're supposed to be pretty bad.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.

i'll just go with fuck asu.

I haven't seen them yet, but they are pretty bad.

However the CP AD sure could use the $85K or whatever the UA pays now to come in and get beat down.

Cal poly is even worse than Houston Baptist, should be a beat down.

Well then we can hope to view some objective improvement in spacing, shot selection and defense I guess.

If both these teams end up +300 in RPI then we better win the Vegas tourney as it may be the only way we get into March madness

Our offense is so anemic still. This game should be over already.

Not able to watch, but boy does it seem like we're having trouble to put away a team that just narrowly qualifies as D-1.

30-4 run. Bring back that spurt of death. Already can't wait for our next game. The ride this year will be a Roller coaster but I think like a Roller coaster one we will all enjoy

UTEP on Wednesday should be a good test.better athletes and better coaching

I get worked up during the games too but I guess I'm not understanding the hate for Smith. If anything, what's the point of Barcello. I get he doesn't plas as much but what's the point if you can't hit wide open 3s.

Anyway, I like the teamwork of this team. Interested to see the offense against a better team.

Randolph is impressive with how he can take a lot of contact in a drive and then put up a nice soft shot to the rim.
