Dayton sports a top 20 offense and the 85th rated defense according to Kenpom. If we play solid defense, we should be able to win the game.

Imagine how much physical (at altitude) and emotional energy that probably took.

Also shows how good Nevada was. #cougin’it

They Alford’ed it. Wasn’t shocked he sat on the ball. Dude has always been looking for his nugs.

CSU scoring 11 points in the first half and Texas somehow still letting this be a game late in the second makes me think both these teams are hot garbage.

I’m not so sure it isn’t time for a new face. Cal’s a great coach, but it might just be mutual separation time.

I’m not seeing any match up problems or stylistic problems from either of these teams yet, so probably either are fine.

Anyone else seeing anything?
That would be wrong. Dayton is by far the team that can give us trouble. Got a stud in Homes II and he has good size and will be a difficult matchup for us. They have a slower tempo which we struggle against sometimes. They have also been in the tournament a lot over the years so they aren't star struck when they get there. As a team they shoot well.
