The rest of the games really are must win...

From watching both practices last night, I would say that the big things are exactly what you have listed here. We definitely will have a physical advantage, so we need to knock down some shots and watch out for their ball movement. Maybe I am off my rocker, but from what I saw I am more worried about them shooting outside shots than dominating us on post-ups.

JG looked injury free to me as well, but they were not really pushing.

The enemy :)!

Definitely a nice listen - Archie knows what he is talking about.

Good - I always prefer when the ESPN types are picking against us.

~50 minutes according to google

Do you need tickets for this?

OR "When trying to make the come back, I really had hoped to score in the second half."

Enough about the elite 8 already. Let's get the Gonzaga FF game thread going.

Me too!

I love how Xavier Booker's thread has become the Xavier Johnson thread.

This assuming a win! If we were going to lose, Yale would be my choice. Might as well flame out in style.

If they have not already, GEIKO should do an NCAA version of the commercial where they have some big upset occurring while the fan looks ahead.

Sorry for the Monday morning confusion. The reference was the Geiko "it's what you do" commercials. If you are a basketball fan, you look ahead. It's what you do!

Do you work for Geiko?

IF we could catch lightning in bottle and go on a run, there are some interesting potential elite 8 opponents in PU and UK. Which would you rather face?

I hope we come out ready to play the 1972 UCLA Bruins. Let's win this.

Added bonus: We have a chance to be the first team to win 7 NCAA tournament games in a single season. (I assume that it has not been done yet)

My 2 cents: The B1G was really an 7-8 team caliber league this year (definitely not the strongest B1G of recent memory). The problem was that teams like RU, UM, and IU kind messed up their bracketing. I think we should have been better seeded, but we had many opportunities to be better seeded. Let's win some games. If we can get out of the first weekend, this first game just gives us one extra NCAA tournament victory on our resume.

me too. I am fine with Dayton at this point

Servers? Crud, I knew we forgot something.

with a good opportunity to improve it today

Iowa - they are ranked, so the win would mean more. But I will take either win.

Iowa would be revenge as well...
