Georgia state

I really think you are the only one nervous AT ALL

Dude. They wouldnt call them upsets if no one was confident the favored team would win.

I mean some people were picking Arizona to win it all, and their down 17 to a mid major who is just 25 spots higher in kenpom than Georgia St.

I believe we will win. But I’m not oozing with confidence. No one should be uber confident this time of year, except maybe the 1 seeds

To a team we beat in a tournament situation, in what most would say wasn't one of our best games. I'm just saying, of course anything can happen but to sound overly concerned about a 15 seed, just cause hey have a guy who score 20 a game. We will be fine, our defense if going to kill them. I don't think you understand how much worse a really good defense is for lesser teams than a really good offense. Your offense can be off, and if you play terrible D a team can get really hot and beat you. When you play as good as defense as we do, that's every game, we might give up some extra shots to good teams, but we Our defensive intensity is never going to change. The team that's going to beat us, whoever it may be, (if anyone if we're lucky lol), better be damn good on both ends

You say 15 seed as if because it’s a 15 seed they will roll over for us.

We play the highest ranked #15

Also, we play the highest ranked 15 seed in the past 5 years

Duke played a 15 seed who was way under seeded and what do you think happened?


I know it’s going to sound like conspiracy theory, but it’s pretty damn convient that every time we’re a decent seed, we seem to play a team
Who is vastly underseeded.

It was true last year, when we played a highly ranked 11 seed, true against Harvard and now true against Georgia state.

Gsu should be a 13 or 14 seed

Justin upsets happen. Fact is we are the more talented deeper team. I'm expecting a Victory. Something Gary said in the presser makes me think this team is focused. He talked about achieving milestones. He cited Outright League title, Conference tourney and advancing in the NCAA. This team is on a mission focused on team goals. Really don't think they are going to over look anyone. My fear is they may apply to much pressure on themselves in trying to advance but I really don't think they will be overlooking anyone.

Cats play Today in what will hopefully be the beginning of a nice run in the NCAA. Which would put a exclamation point on a great season.

The Reds and baseball season is right around the corner

The Bengals even seem to be making some moves that actually make me think they are concerned about improving the team.

Life is Good.

LETS GEAUX! (LOUISIANA FLAiR)

We just gotta come out and get after it. I watched a lot of that Buffalo game. They were getting after it on both sides of the ball. Zona was not even playing close to the same intensity as Buffalo.

If we play with the same (or better) intensity we win the game easily. Playing hard has never been an issue for us but sometimes we wait until the 2nd half to really turn up the juice and we can't do that in this tournament.

We need to demoralize this team from the start and show them what intensity looks like.

I think playing on Friday is a big benefit. Coach will be able to say look at Arizona. Lots of good examples to use.

Good point. I agree

I think part of the jitters felt by the fan base is because we all want so badly to chase all the demons away from this program. Winning twice this weekend will go a long way in adding some confidence back to the fan base.

We have reestablished our home dominance. ( one home loss over last two seasons)

Our Coach and program has gotten some national exposure.

We won the league outright.

We won the conference tourney

Been ranked all year. A lot of it in the top 10

Got a high seed.

Get beyond the first weekend and all but one of my wants at the beginning of the season will have been answered.

Damn; we stole their lunch money, pushed them down, stole their pudding cup, and then pushed them down again.

Really don't want to have to sweat this one out. I think Gary dominates.
