They don't play defense in the Pac12 do they? Let's show them what shutdown D looks like.

I haven’t watched them. Can Dante handle McKinley Wright?

Interestingly, their season free throw and 3pt% are stronger than ours.

We're the hot 12-5 "upset" team this year on every bracket.
Colorado is a very beatable team. They're not particularly tough. Should be able to come in and punch them in the mouth on D.

Looks like we will have a size advantage at 3 positions and push at 2. They don’t appear to be weak rebounders

Not going to lie, I hate being a hot upset pick. Teams got to block out the noise and keep playing with a chip on their shoulder. |

Their metrics are a little better than I would have thought but certainly prefer them over Tennessee (given we couldn’t play Nova or Creighton).

I think were are in a good place to win a game or two (more with fingers crossed).
Everybody is tough at this stage!

Now that we finally got back, gotta win a game or two 2 games to get the NCAA Tournament jinx/monkey off the programs back that has been there since 2008 |

I haven’t watched them. Can Dante handle McKinley Wright? I caught part of a game of theirs in December and wasn't that watchable of a game. McKinley Wright will be a good match / challenge for Dante. Write reminds me of Howard from last year a physical and quick guard who you need to stay tight on. It was a long time ago in Covid times, but I do remember it being a game I wasn't interesting in watching and it was close and early in the game. Edit: Looks like it was Kansas State in November. It looks like the Pac12 tourney highlights are abundant on YouTube. |
