Duquesne Game Thread
Very good effort last night... But this game Saturday afternoon as an absolute must win... Can't lose to Duquesne.
Starting Lineup:
G Derrick Colter 5'11" 180 SO Forestville, MD
G Micah Mason 6'2" 180 SO Natrona Heights, PA
G Jeremiah Jones 6'3" 190 SO Gary, IN
F Dominique McKoy 6'8" 215 JR Atlanta, GA
F Ovie Soko 6'8" 225 SR London, England (Easily their best player, one of the best on the conference)
Absolutely can't lose this game Saturday Afternoon in Pittsburgh. Game is at 2 PM... Let's get #6 in a row!
|
Anybody know if there are any pre-game festivities in Pittsburgh?

I leave RPI forecasts to the experts ... Chris R. :)
But the 1.4 win is definately going to help compared to a 1.4 loss in the RPI calculation. And adding Duquesne's record to our opponents doesn't help that portion either. My gut tells me that it's a net-neutral RPI-wise for a win, but a loss is devastating. If the only game played today was DAY/DUQ, and we won, I have us moving up 3 spots, but losing puts us down 6 spots. But, other games will play as well, and that helps or hurts us.

And, in the A10's infinite wisdom, they removed the UD/DU game from the Apple A10 App. Wonderful.
Maybe I should become a fan of a Horizon League team...

Dukes' announcers have really done their homework. Gave starting lineups and referred to Sibert as a redshirt freshman.

Dukes are a poor 3 point shooting team other than Mason (57%), he is 0-1 but the rest of the team is 8-11. If they have a normal shooting game from the perimeter the game would be about a tie.

It's easy to do that when nobody on UD contends the shot; I've seen most of the video feed from the A10 and UD is playing lackluster D at best....You gotta show up EVERY game or you going to lose. And this my friends....is a loss unless they hold Dukes to 15 points in the 2nd half.

Not as bad as a loss to the worse team on our A10 schedule. If they don't pull a miracle - you can put a fork in us. even winning out likely won't do it.

Tough to watch that half, but there is another half and we will improve on our 32% shooting to the Dukes 52% (almost 67% from the 3).

I knew we were in trouble when I heard Archie on the pre-game show say that it's very difficult to recover from a 9 PM Wednesday night game to play at 2 on Saturday. I felt good about this game until I heard that.
In tournament play (any tournament), sometimes you have to play at 9 PM and then come back and play the next day. So if the team can't recover for this game, they're not tournament ready anyway.
Gotta come out with energy in the second half...

Not if UD continues to play 0 Defense; Dukes shooting 52% because they are getting WIDE open shots. Somebody forgot to tell UD (coaching staff included) - 5 wins in a row means nothing if you lose to a bottom feeder. And Duquesne is a bottom feeder in the A10
