Wonderful..thanks Blum..now I'm terrified of Iona. In other words what we do worst (defend the 3) is what they will do all game. Great. We need to control tempo and work ball inside

We've actually been defending the three really well late in the season. OU was 4 of 21 or something like that.

Have we really defended the 3 that bad? I know it seemed like it early in the year, but I don't think teams shot over their average against us in conference play. Good rebounding teams worry me more than good shooting teams.

We led the Big 12 in three point % defense. Not sure what you are talking about.

Yea I can see that..it always seems that first two rounds are really low scoring and I think it always favors defensive oriented teams. Burton is due for a big game and he could be a very hard match up for them.

Anyone else think Little Rock will beat Purdue?

I know nothing about them but they would have a 30% chance at least.

That video of Prohm was trippy....unless I have just lost my mind.

We're the worst at everything we're not the best at. Go Cyclones.

Scary for sure, let's hope the Gaels aren't hot from 3.
