Title: tech x's and o's
Post by: fatty fat fat on February 09, 2009, 11:54:12 AM
pretty pumped for this game (i'm assuming mr. "cas" is as well)

here is their profiel http://kenpom.com/team.php?team=Texas%20Tech

seems like they do a good job keeping the oppy off the glass (which negates a ksu strength)


they are terrible at forcing turnover, which is a good thing for us. (http://kenpom.com/expsked.php?team=Kansas%20St.) <--look at to% on offense

thoughts?

From outside an "X" and "O" explanation, I am am worried about this game.  Dunno exactly why yet, but I fear a cold game from our guards.

When aren't I?!?   ;)

This game is a little dangerous, Tech has played well in their last two games. If we can break out and get on them early and get their few true "bigs" in some foul trouble, this game will be over by halftime.

I'm past worrying about our shooting percentage, frank is willing to force possessions to get past a garbage shooting nights - which we've seen in several of the past few games from some of our dewds..

I just get the feeling that we're due for a stink-bomb...nothing to base that on other than gut feeling.

Not that worried.  Like the match-up.

true, ISU blows though and A&M was a WTF? kind of win.

Yeah, but TTech arguably blows just as much as ISU.

Not worried.  They're a lousy defensive team, and have done nothing on the road.

Would take a bad effort by the Catz to lose this one.

They did beat Miss St, a decent SEC team.  Then again, they also lost to Lamar.

I guess we could play even worse than we did against ISU or aTm, but Frank's a good motivator and our guys know they've got a good thing going.  I don't see them coming out flat.

Upsets are why we play the games, but this would be one hell of an upsetting upset.  All the nerves on this board are starting to make me  :ohno:

Thought that was a neutral site game. :dunno:

Yeah, my mistake.  Miss St was neutral.  So they haven't won on the road all year and have 1 neutral site win.
