Better disciplined and play more together as a team maybe. I don't know about better coached, they have the only guy in history that's won both an Ncaa and NBA title sitting on the bench as his retirement job.
I'm not going to predict a final score, but I expect us to keep on playing hard to the final whistle, even if the game is already decided against us.
Whether we win or lose by double digits I think the trip to NYC can be considered very successful.

True, but being 81 years old, doesn’t mean he is coaching as well as he was 20 years ago.
We’ll have to be knocking down outside shots. Won’t be easy to get to the basket with their length.
Nope. Really going to need Conditt to stay out of foul trouble too
No, but I bet he does a the majority of teaching and x's and o's stuff. I don't think Pennny is a very good coach, hes had NIT teams while getting top recruiting classes every year. Pretty sure that's why Brown was brought in, similar to Martelli at Michigan.
Yeah that’s why him being 81 doesn’t really matter. He’s providing the knowledge for the coaches to instruct with
Wednesday was my first viewing of this year’s team.
We appeared totally organized on the court and the sideline.
The best versions of ourselves, if you will.

I'd imagine that if you play hard whistle to whistle it would take a decent amount of bad luck or just outright insane play by the other team for you to not be around near the end. My benchmarks for today are
Are we still in it at half - Good
Are we still in it half way through the 2nd - Great
Are we still in it in the closing minutes - Amazing
We win - I get sent home from work early because I won't stop screaming
So far I'm 0-2 (2-0 in being happy I'm wrong) in predicting losses so I'm going to keep that train going for superstition sake.

According to my cable guide the games is on ESPNU but if you go to the ESPN website they list it as ESPN2
Lunardi's latest bracket - Xavier dropped from 8 seed to 9, Memphis up from 3 seed to 2. (Virginia Tech still at 8 after Memphis loss).
Stakes even bigger!
