Tech

We have a good chance to see what were in for with Tech. They play tonight at 8pm on ESPN. Also, Wake looked very good last week in their game with Memphis. Nothing will be easy OOC.

Being an alum of both SMU and Wake, I follow both teams fairly closely. Wake is by far the best team we will play this season. They have three outstanding guards including one McDonald's All American and two very good big men including one McDonald's All American. This game probably won't be close, but it will be a good game to "battle harden" the Mustangs. An interesting matchup will be Wake's freshman point guard Chris Paul (considered the best freshman point guard by some experts) versus B-Hop. We'll lose the game inside with Wake's huge power forward Eric Williams and center Vytas Danelius who will score at will against our big guys. I'll be there cheering for both teams.

Tech looked pretty good last night. Emmett will be tough to contain. Tech's freshman PG Jackson looks like a player (17pts in 21 minutes with 0 TOs). And Knight brought in a load of JUCO talent.

Tech looks scary good. Jackson can play and is quick. We basically get two top 25 teams at home this year in Tech and Wake. SMU has a chance to make its season, and BHop has the chance to show his ability. Thats all you can ask for.
