To make the NCAA tourney I think we need to be no worse than 12-6 in the BE. Assuming we win all remaining 7 home games, a huge assumption I know, we will need at least 3 road wins. This game will show how realistic this is. If we win here then maybe we show we can win on the road. A Xavier-like stinker would really be a bad omen.

Peak really needs to learn to play under control. Too many off-balance and wild drives.

Hope I'm wrong but this doesn't feel like a game this team wins. We've been trending in the wrong direction since New Years eve - our wins over the big east's 2 worst teams notwithstanding - and are now moving toward the bubble. To stay on the right side of it we need a few of these road wins so I hope we can start an upward trend this afternoon. As long as we win games, how are we trending towards the bubble? Unlike the FBS system we don't really gain or lose points for style, especially among the top 100 or so teams. A win is a win, a loss is a loss and any loss at this point is not what we want. You could argue about bad losses being worse but all losses are bad IMO. We need to do whatever it takes to win this game, it doesn't have to be pretty, or easy, or going away, nothing else but a W. My point was that our rpi has fallen

So the zone offense involves putting Hopkins, who has arguably the worst hands on the team, on the high post to catch the pass and then either pass it down low to Smith, or kick it out to an open guard. This will not work.
Four turnovers in 4:11. Not a recipe for success.

Georgetown had the 2v1 break with DSR and Peak, and Peak could not finish... Those type of lost opportunities can come back to bite you in a tight game.

We need Copeland or White at the high post, Hopkins can't do it (at least so far).

Well no one is helping Smith on defense in the middle. There is no help defense. Trawick was the offender once. Also, placing Hopkins in the high post is just useless. He presents no threat to score and cannot dribble without losing the ball. Would switch now to White who presents that threat.

The first link stays blank. The second says: "One more step. Please complete the security check..." Any ideas?

The Friars lead is 7 to 3, the Hoyas cannot let the lead expand any further.
