UCF pick'em

Knights are #1 in the country in 2-pt% defense. Winning this one largely depends on if we can hit some outside shots and how well we can handle Tacko.

I bought 14 tickets for this one during that Black Friday deal and handed them all out this week, so hopefully they yell loud for me.

Get him in foul trouble and run his *** all day long. They aren't very deep. Wojcik beat their coach. C'mon now.

I think the key will be keeping Tacko more than 5 feet from the basket on defense and making intermediate shots on offense. We need to be able to make that 10-foot pull-up jumper or we'll be in trouble.

Yea,
I expect a lot turnovers in the paint as we get lost driving.
Hopefully we won't act intimidated by their inside presence like we seemed vs ECU.

But, I also expect us to come out with some fire.

Play up tempo with Tacko in the game. He can be slow getting down the court on defense.

Actually, with depth being one of our main strengths, we should be pushing tempo on just about every opponent.

 

[TulsaEye]

More mid range shots will be needed. Mostly anything that goes inside will get swatted away while Tacko is in.
