Paradise Jam: Ole Miss def Drake

[brewcity77]

Just saw that Ole Miss advanced, so if we win tonight, the Rebels are up next. Only Virginia/TCU left before we start.

Ole Miss 6th overall in rebounding at 49.5 per game.  That could present a bit of a problem...but its a 2 or 3 game sample size.

And now TCU is leading Virginia by 5 with less than a minute to play 

Hope we aren't overlooking Winthrop, upsets galore in the Virgin Islands.

TCU is not joining the Big East.

No sh!t.

TCU is not joining the Big East.

I thought that they were joining just long enough to pay the five million dollar exit fee.  Seriously.

[Skatastrophy]

No sh!t.

How would you know if I was Mad or not?  Amazing that you can read emotions in a two word post?  Is that you Mr. Kreskin?

But, to your point, I suspect my emoticon SHOULD have given it away.  Thus my retort.

Wonder if Juan can get some minutes to help with that?  Buzz said in the post game he's a very good rebounder and that he would be in uniform Sunday, but also suggested that he's going to spend most of his time cheering from the bench.

I noticed this as well and is my biggest concern. However, on a side note I noticed tonight MU reached number 6 in PPG 8 in FG% and 1 in APG. Very, very impressive numbers thus far.

Last year they averaged 36 and gave up 33.  Similar cast of characters.  Not sure I would put much stock in their 49 or whatever rebounds per game.  Will we get out rebounded?  Possibly, even likely.  Not by double digits, though.

They averaged 46 in their first two games...against kenpom's #319 Louisiana-Monroe and #345 Grambling. And yes, #345 is considered the worst team in the country. Against Drake, they were outrebounded 36-32. I'm not worried about Ole Miss blowing us off the boards. They'll get their share, and they have length, but we should be fine.

Seriously dudes, if you can't sleep worrying 'bout Ole Miss, better get some albium for UConn, GU, Pitt, and Syr.
