Akron had no guard play with their main guy out starting two freshmen. AND to BOOT their coach wanted to press VCU?? Not smart no skilled guards vs VCU results in a 50pt drumming.

Michigan is the opposite. The best back in the nation hands down. Burkes handle is the best in the country. Once you break the press its a two on one lay up. I like VCU all year especially vs teams with weak guards BUT Michigan has the guard play and the transition offense to control the game. Michigan -3 Big...LIP

Makes sense what you're saying. But Big 10 bb doesn't see this style of play. No preparation. Mich grds will exploit a few open looks. Will it be enough? Will they get back on defense? You're looking at ball handling and scoring, which is just one angle.

I think they're good enough to beat the press. But VCU also knows they're good enough to best the press. I think they'll give the obligatory effort, the back off and play half court defense. I don't think there will be so many transition baskets if press doesn't work early. Like the under, think the side could go either way.  Gun to my head I take VCU with the points

BOL on your play
