We are still favored despite the injury reports, by 1.5 points. I said it for the EMU game and will again for Kent - The over/under number (144) looks awfully low to me.
I think you're all wrong and we are gonna look good tonight and get the win. I am hoping to equate this game to the football team's game vs Buffalo where we were down and not very confident, then we beat the crap out of Buffalo and kept it rolling the rest the way.
I hope you're right, but it's hard to see where the scoring is going to come from, and how we're not going to get destroyed in the paint and at the rim. Hadaway and Clayton are our best rim protectors on a bad rim protecting team, and I think things are going to be ugly on the defensive end. Like, I think we're likely a bottom 10% defensive team nationally from here on out.
And while I'm as big a Pavs fan as anybody here, but even I am not bullish about him as our #1 option. And there's just not really anybody who seems capable of doing it, outside of Reef for stretches.
When you're a very bad defensive team, and your #1 offensive option's an undersized guard who hasn't found his three point shot all year, it's hard to see things adding up to wins.
