Baseba1111 had a good breakdown of the Monarchs in the Wyoming thread, but I thought we might as well have a new thread.
Definitely think ODU will provide the best test so far. Outside of a terrible year in 2012, they've always been a pretty good team. In 2015-16 they went 25-13 and lost in the semifinals of NIT to Stanford. Last year they were 19-12. This year they are 1-1 and four of their five starters are upper classmen. I think we'll win, and it would be a good win if we do. A victory would likely put us up against Missouri in game 2.

Bylaw 2342C of Benny's House:
Invoking "Baseball1111" for anything besides agitating him into an insult battle is not allowed.

Agree on it being a tough test, and not the type we've historically done well against. They have quick, slashing guards that can score the ball. We do not have perimeter defenders that do well against these types. I see our best shot is that we run them off the 3 point line and Kelley plays a lot of minutes protecting the rim. Also, if we slow them down and score methodically with a heavy dose of Tinkle going to the basket, he could give them a lot of trouble. But if we try to run with them and outscore at that pace, it probably won't work in our favor.
Some highlights:

This is a must win game today, have to avoid the loser's bracket. Need to play Missouri in the next round for strength of schedule help.

For a couple of programs that are probably best case bubble teams in OSU and ODU, a big game for both teams.

Sounds like we're at least playing defense so far. Clean it up and we take this one.

cannot tell from the completely uninformative play by play of friendly elf jon warren but it seems beavs are losing due to bad shot selection, turnovers and all around sloppy ball. Way to meet my expectations Wayne.

Slopping it around as a fun excuse for a junket to the islands instead of bringing the focus and taking care of the ball, getting good shots etc. That's the Tinkle coaching effect.

Classic Warren:
"A rare turnover in the game. I think that's 2 for the Beavers. let me look that up. I think it's 6... That's the 11th turnover for the Beavers."

Jon Warren as the Jerry Allen mini me:
"Steve Thompson passes the ball out of bounds. Rare turnovers for the Beavs. That's just 2 turnovers for them. Let me check that. 11 turnovers, that's 11 turnovers for the beavers."
Also, does Jon Warren realize that "Big G" is not Glig's birthname? You can call him something else once in a while.

Hollins 8 minutes, 4 fouls. Ethan 29 minutes, 1-7 fg, 0-2 3pt. 2-2 FT.
That's gonna leave a mark.
44-40 ODU, 8:40 to go.
