Hey bro, you worried at all about the boards being owned by UCONvicts thus leading to easy baskets the other way? Not calling UC as good, bur that didn't work out so well for WVU when they got beat on the boards by Nova and Cuse. the Neers live off 2nd chance, easy buckets.
I also like the backcourt match up in favor of UC.
GL man, one of us will be happy.
The trio of UCONN better step up tonight because they have not done so in the past. WVU has done a great job on Robinson, Dyson, and Walker in recent meetings. Adrien, Thabeet, and Price are not here to bail these boys out.
Yes I know WVU has been hit miss all season defensively. Tonight is a pure gut play that they will be on tonight. UCONN is not a great offensive shooting team. WVU will try and make thins a half court game. Which is why I also lean to the under but could not play it due to the recent line move. The only points in the paint UCONN will be scoring tonight will be in transition. Quick hitters on the block or guys cutting to the lane on the break for easy baskets. I see Huggins limiting this tonight. Sure UCONN has beat Nova and Texas this season but they have played complete games something thats has been very rare for them this season.
Every time this team has gained momentum to get back on track to a tourney bid this team has collapsed. They just cant seem to put it together and IMO it is a combination of laziness which leads to poor execution. This UCONN is a great team that stands around and watches the game instead giving 100% effort on both ends. We will see a lot of this tonight that leads WVU to a easy win.
WVU may be a bad jump shooting team and takes pride on put backs but they dont quit. They will give you a ton of effort night in and night out even if it appears sloppy. I think with the poor showings in these meetings out of the trio from UCONN will be the downfall. IMO when you got couple 6'7" and 6'9" guys matching up with Robinson and Dyson then 2 horses on Kemba Walker all night then there lies the match-up difficulties. As it has showed.
The D of WVU shows up tonight and creates easy baskets and sticks the dagger in all NCAA tourney bid hopes for UCONN.
