Cliff shows up we win 80 to 50.

Bryant plays uptempo so these scores need to be moved higher. Bart says there is a 45% chance we lose one of the next 4 and 50% one of the next 5. I think our odds of lsing one of the next 4 are higher than that. Tough to pick Bryant to win, but I am giving them a 1 in 3 shot of taking us down. Boston U was a pathetic basketball team as advertised. They made our many defensive mistakes unnoticeable. We are still no where near where we need to be.

Actual attendance---??? going with 100 bodies that end up not coming with $30 parking being the motivating factor. Not sure how many of our season ticket holders get season parking passes

Bryant is legit, no pushover. They have two really good players in 6-5 guard Sherif Gross-Bullock and 6-6, 220 forward Earl Timberlake, plus a couple of other pretty good pieces. This team beat Syracuse last year. I worry about our small guards having to defend these guys.

On the flip side, Bryant has very little size, as the biggest player in their rotation is listed at 6-8, 200. So we will have a major size advantage, and we can expect the Bulldogs to double the post. Cliff and Woolf will need to find the open man on doubles.

That said, I think we still pull this out, but it will be tight until the under 4:00 minute timeout in the second half.

Exactly. Bryant lost by 2 to a team that was 1-16 from deep, because Bryant was 8-20 from the free throw line.
