You guys are going to hate Pryor, dude flops and cries about everything. Iā€™ve watched quite a few USF games this season and they are a solid squad. Their coach manages the end of games well and his guys donā€™t make goofy mistakes.

Defend the three and we should be ok. Do not defend the three and it could be a long night.

Looks to me like this will be a game where a good offense (USF) meets a good defense (Us) and a so-so offense (Us) is up against a so-so defense (USF)ā€¦on the road, I like our chances, but this is the biggest test since FAUā€¦Iā€™ll be disappointed with a loss, but a lot of basketball left to play. Like VA49er saidā€¦defending the 3 is key I thinkā€¦USF hits 40% or better, not sure we win.

100% on Pryor. He is a flop waiting to happen on every play.

I hope we go at him down low with Igor and Jackson. He has length but can be bodied up at 210 lbs. Pryor in foul trouble is a problem for them.

Bad memories from that Arena. I was there in 2005. We couldnā€™t hit anything in the 1st half, and never recovered. All 12 of their students in the student section rushed the court because it was the first time they had beaten a ranked team in XX years. I think I posted a picture on the board, but have no idea how to retrieve it.

This was the 1st college venue that I went to that served beer, so that was a plus.

Alumnus also has a great story about that game!! :rofl:

I was there for that game as well (I was in the area visiting family). All I remember thinking how lucky they were heading to the BigEast (because the arena didnā€™t feel BigEast like that night).

That was the start of our downfall in 2005. February was perfect. March was a nightmare.

Interesting stats to look at in this prep sheet.

Oh yes, I remember listening to Matt on the radio and the court rush :face_vomiting: Lets make a new memory tonight with a big win.
