Game 1: 11/9 @Eastern Michigan
Welcome to the new basketball season. We open up on the road against a tough Eastern Michigan squad who is picked to win the MAC west division (Buffalo is picked to win the east as well as the conference).
It appears that EMU returns quite a bit on their roster from last season but yet are still a pretty young team. Last years team went 21-12 (11-7 in the MAC). Their two senior forwards are going to be the problem:
James Thompson IV- 6'10" 14.5ppg, 11.2 rpg, 1.2 bpg
Elijah Minnie- 6'9" 16.8 ppg, 6.1 rpg, 1.9 bpg
They may have a block party in this one. They are big and skilled. This probably needs to follow a Spiker game plan of get up and down the court. I do not think we have the skill or size down low to play half court defense against these two. Should be a real test to see where our unknown squad will be. This one could easily get away from us in a hurry.
DU- 71
EMU- 92
