He looked fine to me. He did everything and didn’t look to be hurting.

I've been nervous for the past two days! Cant wait for the game to start, going to fire up the big screen in our board room at work. Kind of wish we weren't everybody's pick for an upset ....

Things on our side:

- We're a better defensive team.
- We're probably better than the 11 seed we got.
- They're probably not as good as the 6 seed they got.
- We're 9-2 against teams with RPIs better than 105; they're 9-8.
- We're 10-0 in our last 10; they're 6-4.
- They're 1-4 in games played against teams with RPIs equal or better than ours.
- It means more to us than it does to them.

Things on their side:

- They're used to tournament play and being on the big stage.
- They have better athletes at some spots.
- They've played 5 games against teams with RPIs better than ours.
- It means more to us than it does to them.

We need to control the tempo, make them work very hard for shots and go deep into the shot clock. NO FAST BREAKS! Deny passes into the paint. Make free throws! Hopefully the threes are falling for us; they have one guard who's 5'7" and one guard who's 6'3", so we should be able to get some open looks. They're 51st in three point field goal defense (pretty good), but we're 5-1 against teams with better three point defense. Contain Lonnie Walker IV-- since the start of 2018, Miami is 1-5 in games where LW4 shoots under 40%.

I'm with you on this. I'm afraid all the recent media love and attention may put a Karma curse on the Ramblers.

Watching the Tennessee v. Wright State game. These rims look tight. Hopefully they loosen up for us (and only us)

Tenn. and WSU both 1-8 on 3s.

We've got to shoot much better!
