If you are going to play the VOLS yuou need to put your big boy pants on. 

In a word, today was all about in your face, in your jock D E F E N S E!

Duke tied their record low for points in the NCAA Tournament.

I was throwing up my hands saying “what are you doing?” to Uros with those two pretty blatantly rough early fouls.

But in hindsight it’s clear his task in starting is to go in there, goon it up and set the tone.  Sure worked today!

His hip check (2nd foul) was Stanley Cup worthy

We played well today, but dook is a pretty average team IMO.  FAU, if they are in the S 16, will be tougher IMO.  Farleigh Dickinson, I like the matchup, they won't catch us sleeping and they likely don't catch lightning in a bottle twice.

I did like the offense today though, hope it shows up Thursday.

so...dook is 44th in defensive efficiency, La Lafayette was only 146 though, so I will go out on a limb here and say our offense really did play better (thank you Captain Obvious  )

FAU is 17th though....

Go FDU!  

(FDU is 182  )
