We won by 34 at USF last season 92-58.

But true a 31 point road victory is huge!

I really wouldn't read too much into the actual margin. To me it's about putting inferior teams away early...holding them double digits down and snuffing any attempt at a home court run quickly. Keeping the home crowd out of it, getting valuable playing time for DaShawn and Gu, resting the regulars when possible and staying healthy.

Boy, how quickly I forgot that win. Still a really good win, especially after starting our first two conference games on the road.

DaShawn needs more than 6 minutes in a 31 point win, Emelogou needs more than 17.
Would be more happy with Dashawn getting 12- minutes in the game and Emelogou with more like 25

Couldn't agree more. There was one point we were up 23 points coming out of the 8 minute stoppage and we come out of the timeout and we have all 5 starters still in. At that point I want to see Gu and McDowell the rest of the way and work in the walk-on's around the 3-4 minute mark like he did. McDowell needs more minutes in games like this. We will need him to play crucial minutes at somepoint this year.

And any amount of minutes we can save our starters during the year the better.
