UNI v Georgetown

[ejacobson]

I think that other than the height differences in the two teams, this is a very good match-up for each team, in that the two teams should end-up playing a very tight game. I think UNI relies on Defense more than Offense this year and G-town the opposite (O>D), but the game should be very competitive and very fun to watch, I cannot wait to get to Dayton Friday Morning.

GO PANTHERS!!!
GO MVC!!!!

I am just very suprised to hear so much praise for Hibbert. Maybe I caught him on off days.

I dont think anyone is giving him much praise here at all. I think we're all echoing that you can't just discount a 7'2", 285 lbs got as "worthless" and that, if he is on, watch out... but he is inconsistent. To be honest, besides the huge size difference, I think this is a pretty accurate description of Coleman. There are times out there that he looks like a man among boys and times that he looks like a 19-20 year old playing in his second season.

I was merely pointing out that when you combine the 4 starters besides Hibbert you will get about the same thing (yes, some days will be off for one while on for the other) but, in general, when they have lost its been Hibbert and Owens that have disappeared the most.

That is Georgetown exactly. You clearly have done your research.

It looks like some writers have faith in us. Four of the five panelists picked us to win against Georgetown, with one even saying we'll get into the Sweet Sixteen. It's good to know that at least some people other than us think we have a shot at winning.

IF the MVC plays as well as this guy thinks.....WOW

De Los Santos surprised himself by picking Memphis to reach the final. He feels the Minneapolis Regional is a toughie with 'Nova, B.C. and Ohio State all capable of reaching the Final Four. UConn should have the smoothest road to the championship. Champion: Connecticut • De Los Santos' Bracket

I wouldn't put much stock into what those guys said. One of them has Northwestern State in the Elite 8. The good thing is that it doesn't matter if everyone in the world picks us to lose, the Panthers get to decide what really happens on Friday.

Northwestern State is dang good. They could get to the Elite 8. Unlikely, but definitely possible.

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm pretty good at most everything I do? ( )

But we dont want Northwestern St to win, because we beat Iowa and that would cause our RPI to drop!!!

OH, sorry, I was so used to last week where we had to determine how each game affected us!!
