As 68 just explained very well, IUPUI is the only team in the league that can contain Ritz on the inside and also pressure our shooters on the perimeter. They partially blocked two outside shots in the first quarter, which caused us to hurry those shots for the rest of the game. They looked unbeatable last evening, but five days previously, they looked very average in a loss at Green Bay. Again, IUPUI starts four seniors/graduate students who will all be gone next season. Their coach is facing a major rebuild. It is impressive how he gets quality players to join a program with few fans and a small "high school" style home gym.
For us, get the job done tomorrow and claim the second seed. I would also like to see CSU beat Green Bay at home tomorrow and set up a Green Bay-IUPUI semifinal.
