Arizona had a flight delay and didn't get into their hotels until midnight last night, they are wide-eyed in the city of New York. They are a young team with tremendous inside play. Solid guard in transfer Mcconnel and a very wild SG in Nick Johnson, who mentioned how great a matchup it would be between them and Duke, maybe a little bit of looking ahead.
Drexel has the great equalizer, tremendous 3 point shooting. A 5th year senior Fouch, another great senior leading guard Massernat, and an explosive wing who can light it up in Lee.
Arizona hasn't really been tested, while Drexel has played some tough games, including a close loss at UCLA. Drexel will be missing their inside bruiser in Abif. Will the 3 point shooting be enough to keep Drexel within the number? Or will Arizona's inside play of Aaron Gordon and their 7 foot center be too much to handle? Gordon is a sure first top 5 pick, amazing athlete who plays like a bulldog and just keeps going after it, this kid has one of the most amazing motors I have seen from a kid in a long time.

Drexler dont score well in halfcourt, take bad shots and you play a zone it gets worse. Fouch actually a 6th yr senior, one thing they do have is size, they cant beat up on lesser teams Zona aint a lesser team.

It seems that Drexel does indeed have the outside shooting that can play well against a zone defense. The problem is that they are undersized with their leading rebounder out with a concussion. Their next man up is listed at 6'8, while they will probably start a freshmen who is 6'7. Gordon and their 7 foot center will have eat these two alive inside. The problem with Zona is they lack the outside shooting to pull away from Drexel to cover the 10 points.
The only real team Zona has played this season was a game at San Diego State, where they out rebounded SD by 13, but only made 3-13 from 3 point land (Nick Johnson 1-6). SD only made 4-11 from 3 point range.
While Drexel at UCLA took 23 shots from long range, only connected on 5 and still only lost by 5 points. So on a neutral court, Drexel should be able to shoot A LOT better.

They got delayed on Monday night, not last night. They will have been in NYC for 42 hours by tip time, plenty of time to adjust. I'm from Philadelphia. Drexel has had a nice start to the season, but remember that the UCLA game was the first game for the Bruins under a new coach without their best player from last year. Drexel has not faced a team like this. Top rebounder Abif out with a concussion too. They're going to get killed on the boards. Wins against Elon, Rutgers w/ Jordan as coach, and a bad Illinois St. team does nothing for me. Miller is light years ahead of Bruiser as a coach, too. I'd lay up to 14 in this game for Zona, as they win by 15+. Max play on Zona.

Where are you seeing this great "outside shooting" for Drexel?
Not this year so far, but Drexel has a couple of guys that can get hot, Fouch specifically. Massen'at can knock down a few in a row too.
That said, Zona by 15+. Line already jumped from 10 to 12. So annoyed, only got a nickel at 10. Trying to get an 11.5 somewhere so I can buy it down to 11.

Covers has him(Abif) as questionable?
Dragons might be surprising considering they've played 4 straight road games with 3 of em as wins.They are battle tested. If ABIF does play,ill take em for the cover.
