It's called sports and not math where 10 will always be greater than 5.

Who will we upset? I don't have a clue. If I did I'd go to Vegas, put down 1,000 bucks at say 3, 4 or 5:1 and have two hours of bliss.

And then come home and be in financial heaven making a deposit to my bank account...

We may pull an upset (or two), but this team doesn't have the killer instinct against bad teams like last year's bunch did. We disappointed last year, but we annhilated the teams that were worse than us. This year, we squeaked by an inferior CMU team at home, lost in OT to BG, needed a late run to pull away from Akron, and then lost to an awful Ohio team.

We will need a lot of work to turn it around. Our guards aren't good enough to have the offense run through them. Thompson and Minnie should put up way more shots than Jackson does, but that won't happen most nights. Something has to change or we are looking at a basement finish and Murphy will be looking for a new job.
