feelings about the Rebels?

I feel like we are always good at dictating the pace and that our defense is always pretty damn solid. I feel like the x factor in all of our games is our shooting. The Fresno game was our style to a T, but we only scored 30-some points.

I agree. It is always easier to slow a game down than speed it up so we do have the advantage there. Actually I should add another key and maybe the most important in this game besides slowing it down is being able to break the press and not turn it over. If we turn it over it allows them the ability to speed the game up by getting out in transition and at the same time we lose a possession because of it.

We have to break the press with no turnovers and then just milk the clock and try and work inside out by getting the ball on the block to Nance and Leonard and let them do their thing and find open shooters when they are doubled or make them foul us. No matter how hard it is to get it inside we need to force the issue tonight.

Last game we played 7 players.

Only 2 bench players saw the floor and that is not a good thing when playing on the road.

It is when you are playing Illinois State on the road

It's all gonna be about if we can slow down the pace. It's gonna be tough. But a win here would probably get us ranked again and tell the nation that Wyoming is for real.

agreed as long as we beat Air Force on Saturday!!!

i going in knowing to fear the worst expect the best, regardless, we win I'll be soooo elated, we lose, as long as it's not a blowout, I'll be fine with that as well!!!

Man screw the 3 point shooting! It seems that each game the Pokes start out making a couple of early threes and then that's all they shoot. They need to work the clock and then get the ball down low Washington and Nance and see if they can get their bigs in foul trouble. They can't work the clock down and then shoot a bailout three. And for crying out loud I want them to make their free throws!
