What I want to see v IUPUI

[brewcity77]

I don't think loses @ Wisconsin or vs. LSU are resume killers, either.  But losses too all of  Belmont,Iowa,Wisconsin, and LSU would be bad, only because no real quality win.  Best win would be ASU (assuming we both lose the tourney opener, and we can beat them).

Or maybe you meant non-conference home games.

I did mean home games. I don't think LSU would hurt, and Wisconsin probably not because it's at least a road game. Thanks for catching that

I want to see better defense. I really hope to see IUPUI try going back door like Belmont did so effectively with Bradds, and I want to see our guys adjust to it. I want to see better three point shooting. I want to see our bigs actually play like bigs. I want to see Luke finish through contact. Above all, I want a win, because while Belmont may not be a resume killer, losing any of our non-conference games outside of Iowa will definitely put a dent in the resume.

I agree, Brew that we want to see better D. Just not sure we could judge too well if it is better against this team. Unless we lose, then we will know about the D, We should win by 20, however.

Fair point, but I want to see guys not missing assignments, making silly mistakes, gambling when they should stay home, and making sure they get back on defense after a score. This team may not be able to punish us for defensive miscues, but I still want to see the fundamentals improving.

I wouldn't be so sure. IUPUI is easily the toughest of the low major games we play this year. We should win by double digits but I would guess it will be between 10 and 15.

Oops, well it looks like this year's team is over-rated so far
