Let's Go State!

Extra Credit if somebody gets a Demon Dog (if it still exists) at the Red Line Fullerton "L" stop before heading to the Arena at McCormick Place on the Green Line. The Arena is new since I left the City, so I will be interested to hear if it is easy to get to and an enjoyable experience? Cannot be any worse than the Rosemont Horizon!

Demon Dogs closed 20 years ago in preperation for the 2008 olympic bid expansion/modernization of some CTA stops.


There is a new stand that opened a few years later called Devil Dawgs in homage to Demon Dogs and there is a location 2 stops north of the Cermak-Chinatown Red Line stop if you're looking for a hot dog fix.

Got it last night in fact

If we don't turn the ball over a ton, we win this game by 15+. If we are careless with the ball and we come out flat, it'll be a game. Put them away early and then step on their throats.

Need to keep the ball moving which seems to be connected to turnovers.

I'm not usually one to put a lot of weight on Nov/Dec games but the next two need good showings imo.

one glaring thing- they turn it over 20% of the time and we force TOs 26% of the time. We should be able to pressure the hell out of them and force plenty of turnovers.

They are just a very bad team, tbh.

Every analytics system thinks DePaul sucks.

75-66 with a 81% win expectation on Torvik right now.

The only games left on the schedule Torvik has the Cyclones more likely to win...

Cupcakes = Prairie View A&M, Florida A&M, Eastern Illinois, New Hampshire

Big 12 = home against Oklahoma State, home against West Virginia

That's it.

We need to get right and body these guys. Dress rehearsal for the Iowa game.
