Re: Predict the score VU & Temple
The case for us:
* The team knows it's been a disappointing start. We are unlikely to shoot as poorly as last game.
* Have to think there's been a serious talking to with Wright and Robbins. I expect them to come out aggressive and drive up our FTA.
* Smith and Dia's third game with decent minutes, they should be settling in a bit more.
The case against us:
* Everything else
I'll go 64 - 59 Temple.

Re: Predict the score VU & Temple
If we work under the assumption that CJS is a good coach, and he can help Wright and Robbins through their funks, plus there is some regression to the mean, we might be due for a surprisingly large win.
It sure feels like this was about as bad a start to the season as we could possibly have, and that we will play much better just on the basis of self respect. At least that is my hope. I'll take any win of course, but i would hope for some sign that we aren't just going to roll over because our first two games didn't go the way we would have wanted.
