I may try and fly over for the Memphis game on 1/30, so apologies in advance if I hit people up for tickets.

UCF has good size and no doubt our guys will be tired. There are no gimmies for us for the rest of the year because of our roster issues now.

Hope to see you in Memphis. I am planning on driving in from Cinci for the game.

Classic sucker punch game. Coming off big win. Emotions high means wanting to take the day off.

This is where you need LB to knock them upside the head.

Upperclassmen leadership, and Sterling probably looking to run through a wall after basically missing the Cinci game, makes me not worried about the focus and effort being there. I am more worried about just simple fatigue. Basktball is easily the hardest non-contact sport on your body.

A basketball game with Cincinnati is definitely not a non-contact sport.

Obviously basketball involves contact I just mean it's not part of the premis of the game like say hockey tackle football and rugby.

Don't think these seniors are going to allow anyone to relax; they are on a mission to win them all so unless/until someone beats this team I expect their intensity to infect everyone in the building

Did you see the post game press conference featuring all 7 of our players?

They were exhilarated, laughing and joking. They didn't appear tired at all and
said they could probably play teams with only 4 players if need be.

I don't think they will be tired. My only concern is the turnout for the game at 3pm
on a Sunday afternoon. Hope we have a full house.
