Can't make this a freaking 3-point shooting contest. Where's the defense?!?!

Why is Milton on the bench? I don't care that he has 4 fouls. We're down by 18 to Drake...

DRAKE!

Welp, we are getting routed by the team that was overwhelmingly (unanimously?) predicted to finish last in conference. That doesn't bode well for us...

Are we going to be a Thursday team again?

This team will lose to Drake and then go on to beat Wichita State.

We came into this game 99th in adjusted defense on kenpom.com. Watch where we end up once the stats are processed.

This team is not a perfect team. It has weaknesses. When we have to play a team where we have to defend the post because we do not have a true defensive center and the other team hits its 3s, cuz they will get looks when we have a post disadvantage we will have to play a perfect game. Fortunately we have the ability to match up but it will be tough. Who else in the Conference has a big, effective post player ? Having said that can we come back !!!!!!!!
