Nice W, but two points from the bench????

If guys are bitching now, imagine when we actually lose.

I think it's all about the Big 4, especially McNeal who can take unnecessary risks after he already has 2 or 3 fouls, not getting in foul trouble.  It seems to me since the home job against Tennessee, they have really been playing smart with this in mind.  Every game I feel like we are the better team, and every break I just check to see how many fouls the Big 4 have, and if none are in trouble, I feel very confident we will win.

If Acker has assists, the bigs are playing physical fronting defense like they did to contain Cunningham, and Butler is doing any combination, and none of the Fab 4 are in foul trouble, I think we will win.  As for the rankings, I think West Virginia and Syracuse are the two teams out of order, We beat Nova by 7, who beat Temple by 17, who beat Tennessee by 16, so guess that makes us 40 points better than the Vols who never would have beaten us outside of the state of Tennessee.  A win over West Virginia next Saturday would be huge, but even if we lose that game I think we are going to be up there.
