First and foremost Justin Jackson absolutely destroyed us. Not only did he play a great game on the offensive end, but all the blocked shots seriously hurt our confidence inside. He is going to have to be contained to an extent if we want to win.
We contained Kilpatrick and I think we can replicate that again. We have been shutting down star players all year at Moody.
Biggest thing from last game though 17-8 on turnovers. Its been our Achilles all year, but if we take better care of the ball we can win this.
you have to keep Nic out of foul trouble. That is huge as our B team can't seem to make passes for some reason.
I picked a helluva weekend to be outta town. Missing my first home game of the year but at least I got two good SMU fans in my seats. I'll be tuned into ESPNU with a cold one. Let's show the college bball world we're a top 25 team!
