This game will show whether or not this team can make noise. I am not a one game means all kind of person but this is key to beat a team that we should beat. Nick Perkins aside, I don't see a team with a better big than Jason. Aside from Buffalo I don't know if anyone has as much experience as we do. We need 3 things to happen in the MAC to be successful:
1. Block has to bring it every game. When I say that there are too many boxscores this year where he's got 1 point, 1 rebound and 1 assist. If he doesn't score 10 points he should have 8 rebounds or 8 assists or 3 steals...something more than he has given in multiple games.
2. Cowart has to go off a few times. We need AC to have himself a few games where he goes off for 15 plus---something he has yet to do.
3. One of Gollon or Dartis has to return and not just return but play like they have in the past or better.
Interesting list.
How many of those three things do you honestly see happening with high probability?
For me -
1) That'd be nice, but doubtful for some reason.
2) Not a freaking chance.
3) Gollon maybe, but Dartis is d-u-n done.
