This Bearcat team has by and large beaten the teams it’s supposed to this year. I don’t expect that will change that week. Georgia State hasn’t played anyone this year that comes close to Cincinnati. It might be close for awhile, but in the end the Cats are too good.

i agree with all of this, i think some of us are just pointing out this is not your typical 2 v 15 game. they are a lot better than a 15 seed.
 
Hey guys, GSU fan here. I come in peace. Congrats on the big win today, glad to see y'all pull it out!
I don't know a ton about y'all, but I'll tell you about us.

We have the conference POY, D'Marcus Simonds. He's an excellent player, and can really take over a game. His weaknesses are consistent outside shooting, and keeping a positive attitude when we're down. He is an all around scorer, and rebounds well for a guard.
Surrounding him, we have Devin Mitchell. Very good shooter, can also put it on the floor.
Next, Malik Benlevi is a 3-and-D player who can get some rebounds. Jeff Thomas is another sharpshooter who is solid defensively. Isaiah and Kane Williams(no relation) are point guards that will both see some time, the majority going to Isaiah. He is another good shooter who can score in a variety of ways. Isaiah was huge for us in our conference tournament. Our guards and wings are by far our strength. We are very talented in that area. Our starting 5 guy will be Jordan Session. He is undersized for a center, but he is athletic. He can shoot it, but his range is mid-range. Decent rebounder and defender, but streaky. He is usually the X-factor; if he plays well we win, and vice-versa. Backing him up is Jordan Tyson, who is more of a prototypical center. He seems a little bit raw to me. Not great on offense, but pretty good defensively, and hustles. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask! I'm not happy with our 15 seed; I felt we were deserving of a 14 or 13, and most other Panthers probably feel the same. With that said, we are excited to play y'all! It will be a challenge, but we'll be up to it!

Really nice post. Thank you. I am concerned of course but feel a little better if you need Jordan Session to have a good game we don’t have much to worry about cause he hasn’t met the Problem.

Can’t disagree with that at all. I trust the team will take them seriously and play hard. When you look at it, what’s left are the best 68ish teams in the country based on how the system is set up. I know the bottom tier conference tournament champions probably don’t match up with the middle of the the road power 5 conference teams, but it is what it is. This team has always played whose up next. Business as usual this coming week.

Thanks for the info.
 
If they play as slow as their numbers indicate, I'm not much worried.


We struggle to guard fast pace teams who score quickly from 3 in transition. But if they slow it down, we can defend them and run them off the line.
 
Im a nerd.

So I'm downloading the last game Georgia state has played. I can put on my Dropbox if any one is interested when its done

If anyone has a cable/satellite sub for an ESPN3 account, you can also watch it there on the WatchESPN app.
 
Upside to being up in the middle of the night with little ones and unable to fall back asleep. Kenpom log5 picks are up on his site.

I think I just got umm... I'll just say that I like this

Does suck we got stuck with such a strong 15 seed though. The above should put in perspective how good they are for a 15. But other than that, we got a pretttay, pretttay, prettay good draw

Those of you going to Nashville how is the parking at the arena? Is it close? I don't want to be doing too much walking.

Can you pay to park or should I go ahead and buy a parking pass?

Lot of Garages pretty close, you shouldn't have to park too far. Parking can be pretty expensive downtown, depending on price of pass it may be worth it.
 
Friday at 2! Feels like forever away. I cant wait. Will it be actually 1:00 Nashville time?

Also, is this game played at the predators arena?
 
First post in a lonnng time, as I tend to lurk here...

I like our draw. I hope we come to play against Georgia State - I don't think they are a 15 seed. Luckily, we've beaten the teams we are supposed to beat all year and found ways to grind out wins in close games.
