My expert analysis of Kris Dunn: He's really freaking good.

7 ranked teams have lost this week. If we can survive today's game, we should make a pretty good jump.

Not sure a big jump is worth it. Team needs to get some more time under its belt before the spotlight gets brighter.

I totally agree but if we keep winning its inevitable. We have too much experience to not be already prepared.

So if UC wins today , we could be top 15 or at worst top 20..
Seems that providence and Syracuse should move into the top 25 on Monday.

More time? Our top six players were our top six players all last season, they have a whole season under their belt...a high ranking won't affect this team much, especially with big games like butler x and Iowa st are coming up

So... what's the alternative?

Hope the polls don't pick up on the team for a few weeks. Sit around 22-25. Then once the team is a little more consistent, have the polls pick us up.
Don't need the target of being #12 on our backs just yet.

Fair assessment but the longer I have to wait to rub it in the XU drones at work the more homicidal I'll get.

I feel for you then. If XU wins tmrw, they should be close to 15...makes me sick.

Louisville and Cincinnati are the same team. Feel like I'm watching another UC game right now.

Crazy thing is, UC maybe 15th just by all the losers in the top 25 this week.
Crazy were down like 30 something undefeated teams this early

there are legit but they also havent played any good defense

If they play the 1-3-1 against us I wonder if we see a little more of a combination up top of Troy and a guy like Evans who can pass over defenders easier.

Evans has also shown the ability to hit the corner 3, which is essential vs 1-3-1. I suspect Troy and Cobb/KJ on top with Evans/Shaq running the baseline and attacking corner/short corner. I think where X can get you on their zone is deflections and live ball turnovers. Getting the ball inside is great, but entry passes are going to be very dangerous. We have to limit that or our good half court defense gets wasted and they are good in transition.
