He will be the key to our success this weekend. We go as he goes. If he plays well then we win if he doesnt play well we lose. The last time we played WKU he played awful and we lost. Against ULL he played terrible we lost. Against USA he played great we won. I like our chances if he finds his stroke in Alabama. This is something to keep an eye on.

It's great when Collin plays well and scores a lot, but I don't think he is the key. If he doesn't play well and someone like McCoy or Thompson comes in and picks up the slack, we are okay. I think per any night we probably need 2 perimeter guys playing well and Quincy or Keith bringing it down low. This isn't a team that can get by with 1 guy filling it up, we have to have a few guys on.

I was thinking the exact same thing before I even read your post... it seems lately that other teams have crowded Dennis and White even beyond the 3 point arc....To win, we need to make them pay for coverage that far out by feeding our bigs, which will force double coverage down low and free up White/Dennis to do their thang... if this scenario plays out as such, then we have a good chance of winning - and if McCoy also gets hot in addition to all of this then we have a great chance to win.

I think we 'll go as far as Keith Wooden can take us. We were a totally different team with him banged up in conference play vs. a healthy Keith earlier in the year. When he and Quincy are clicking, few Sunbelt teams can match us inside.

Exactly what I'm thinking.

      I'll be there. How is everyone feeling as we enter conference play? Overall I'm feeling good. We are 2nd in NET in the conference. The two best publicly available models, KenPom and Bart Torvik, have us as the 2nd best team in conference and finishing that way. Our defense has been really good; it's actually better than last season. The biggest improvement is in the defensive rebounding. We are pulling down 74.8% of defensive boards compared to 68% last year. Of course the team isn't without concerns. Although we start the same lineup every game, we haven't found a consistent closing one. There isn't a 'go to' scorer. The shot creation and/or shooting has been lacking in long stretches. So far our adjusted offensive efficiency is the lowest it's been since the 2019 season, but I don't think (hope) it will necessarily stay that way. I'd be disappointed if we don't finish at least top 4 in conference. The conference, as others have noted in many threads, just isn't as good as last season. Last season there were 4 other teams in the top 100 of KenPom and 7 in the top 150. This season there are 2 other teams in the top 100 and 5 in the top 150. Last year in conference we played 3 Q1 games and 5 Q2 games; this year we're projected to play 1 Q1 game and 3 Q2 games. A top 4 finish in conference means that we would need to win 3 games in Ft. Worth to go to the big dance. That's always the dream. The NIT as the consolation prize wouldn't be bad either. Could we host a NIT game again? Last year Indiana St., Princeton, and Bradley hosted opening round games. That would be a fun atmosphere.

      You have to consider many of these are the only entertainment option in town. Fargo, ND vs Denton. The entire state of ND follows the Bison.

      Is it just me or is Eric Morris destined for great things?

      It's just you bro. Same reason why you supported McCarney's #Hit6 campaign. The bar is in Hell.
