Pitt Vs. Bradley

[Grassman]

Believe me, I am not an expert, just a viewer.Being from western PA and having having spent 7 years of my life in P-Burgh and my college roomate having 4 season tix to Pitt games,
I watch them a lot.
They remind me a lot of the Shockers. Erin Gray is a heavier, stronger, Paul Miller. Kendall, is a taller, but less athletic, Kyle Wilson. Ramon is Ogiri, only he makes unbelievable shots. Fields, off the bench is Couissinard.
The wild card is Krauser. he is from the bronx.the team leader, a tough athletic kid, but an erractic shooter. Tony and/or Boogie will have to take him out of the game.
Taking Krauser out of the game, O. B defensing Gray, and staying out of Foul trouble, and Cellus staying HOT, are the keys to a BU victory!
This game is winnable. Pitt is very streaky!

My question is are we on a roll or was last nite just a good game. Everyone last nite kept saying.....second half against SIU. Many kept waiting for the collapse.

What I think you are seeing is we are playing teams that don't know us as well...of course we don't know Pitt either.

Can BU shoot THAT well again?

KU is/was good.....we beat a very good team. Some may say they were off but I saw some tough athletic, albiet young, players.

I like our attitude and confidence......

Grassman...did you check your PM's?

Pittsburgh shot extremely well in their win over Kent State, and that's not the norm for them. I think the graphic I saw showed them making 16 of their first 18 shots . Whether it was bad defense on Kent's part or just shooting out of their heads, it was still impressive. Do they have another game like that in them? BU shot about 45% from the floor against Kansas. Fatigue may be a factor for us. We expended a lot of energy to beat the Jayhawks. The Panthers were never headed in their win, so I suspect they'll be fresher. If we can execute our game plan and box out well for rebounds, we may be able to pull it off. Bradley is the last Illinois team left in the post season, so maybe that will spur them on to bigger and better things. How cool would it be to have us play Bucknell in Oakland, of all places ! Ah, I'm getting ahead of myself. Logic would say if we can beat a #4 seed, beating a #5 should be easier, right? Far from it. Pitt's playing for school and conference pride just like we are. Let's join Wichita in the Sweet 16--why should they have all the fun?
