Purdue looks unstoppable inside. I would consider using a full court press to try to get turnovers before they get set up on offense. We'll need Holden in there for some minutes.

Honestly think Purdue will be hard to prepare for in just a day. We will need to push tempo, force them to play small, and hope to get Swanigan in foul trouble early.

I love the match up. They're slow and Vermont was getting to the rim at will. I think we can run them out of the gym.

Don't even care about Purdue. We need to win this Nevada game right now. Worry about Purdue later. There's plenty of tape out there to show how to negate their two bigs and Haas is worse than Woodbury imo complete waste of 7 feet.

16 minutes!

Most excited I've been for the NCAA game in awhile. Playing the last game of the first day is probably why. Hate all this waiting.

Eh, they turn the ball over a lot. We tend to create a lot of steals. Their guards can shoot, but aren't the best at handling. They are slow in transition defense, and we excel at it. Swanigan is great down low both offensively and defensively, but he tends to turn the ball over when doubled.

We are built exactly like the teams that have given Purdue trouble this year. The key is quality minutes from our frontcourt without fouling. If we lose Deonte or Solomon early and Bowie can't contribute we'll be in trouble. Otherwise I like us to advance.

This might be the worst Aerosmith sing ever, and then they play it every break to boot.

11 minutes is 11 minutes too long.

Started going through this thread, but I'll just post my question here: why isn't there a link to listen to Walters and Heft on Cyclones.tv? Is there another way to hear them?

TIA!

Anybody else trying to use the NCAA app via Fire TV? (Amazon). Is it working?

Seth Davis knows nothing about ISU.

 

[awd4cy]

Seth, I can't understand you talking with Nevada's **** in your mouth.

 

[CycloneErik]

It's OK, Seth. We've seen defense before, even played some.
We'll just leave the "no bench" thing alone. Duh.

 

[FinalFourCy]

How did Nevada get this talented? Great coach for MWC, too.


We'll need to hit our shots and play our best defense.

 

[CycloneErik]

We've played pro talent before, too, studio boys. This ain't new stuff for us.

 

[stormchaser2014]

Wow, 3 of those 4 stooges picked Nevada.

 

[FinalFourCy]

We've played pro talent before, too, studio boys. This ain't new stuff for us.

How many teams did we play with two pros?

We've played pro talent before, too, studio boys. This ain't new stuff for us.

Apparently the Big 12 and Gonzaga doesn't count and we're playing against pro talent for the first time this year.
