Ouch. No meat in their front court. Going to be a long game for them.

 

[nagemj02]

Unless he has foul trouble or they plan to throw different looks at him and get him flustered (double, triple teams, trapping zone, etc.), Haas could feast on them.

If they do those things, I expect to see more of the twin towers on the court.

So VE has 4" on DM?

 

[Mandeville LA]

So VE has 4" on DM?

I am not sure on VE's height could be 6'8". My guess is that maybe DM is 6'3" and VE 6'8".

Whatever it is they are who they are. I am ready for some game to get going. Long stretch of little to no BB.

 

[Dakota Girl]

If they do those things, I expect to see more of the twin towers on the court.

If they do those things we will see a three pointer party.

 

[ahhculdee]

I will be at the game. There better be no repeat of the Gardner-Webb game I was at a few years ago.

We do get a bowl game to watch tonight and the line I saw had us favored by 3.5!

 

[guppy likes purdue]

I'm pretty sure we are 3.5 point dogs

 

[Gold&Black]

Massey has us giving 7 and a 69% chance to win.

Sagarin says about 3 points with predictor being closer to 2. I'm drinking the Flavor Aid.

 

[ToddFosterakadirty]

Vegas has us as a 3.5 dog. I put a dime on it. Go Boilers.

 

[Emartin70287]

How nice it is to beat AZ twice in a year. They probably are not fond of PU.

 

[nagemj02]

I will be at the game. There better be no repeat of the Gardner-Webb game I was at a few years ago.

Garrison Mathews is their leading scorer. Hopefully he doesn't have a 30-something point game like Jerome Hill did a few years ago.

CALLED IT!!!!!!!!!!!
