Bonnies have two players with 4 fouls and 8 minutes left in the game.

Make that 3 players....

Maybe. The Bonnies will have 3 days rest in between games. If this game was Thursday or Friday, fatigue would be a major factor.

Hopefully we follow the same strategy and drive the ball. You don't get a lot of foul calls shooting 30+ threes in a game.

Jaylen Adams, who plays an average of 37 minutes a game for St. Bonaventure, had to sit for a bit. Hofstra commentators mentioned how rare that is that he sits in key spots.

I was talking in reference to our deep bench, pressure defense, and speed. If they have a lack of depth that could wear on them.

Not to mention St. Bonaventure is an excellent rebounding team. They're outrebounding Hofstra 41-26 right now. Low percentage shots mean we'll be one-and-done on possessions all game despite Cacok's best efforts. Gotta take quality shots.

Hofstra up by 4 with 5:15 left.

Yes, you're right. We should hopefully be able to wear them down.

They are up to 15 TO's now though....

And Hofstra has closed the rebounding gap tremendously

Yep its 41-30 now.

Go Hofstra!!!!

Wait... will a Hofstra win hurt our RPI?

I'm confliiiiicted!!!!

Adams is their guy. 27 points and comes back off the bench to score immediately. Seems like a job for CJ Bryce...

Since we play Hofstra twice, a win for Hofstra ultimately helps us more than a St. Bonaventure win.

Moreover, a St. Bonaventure loss on the road won't kill their RPI.

Definitely root for Hofstra.

Ooh that'll be a fun matchup.

Bonnies definitely live off their two guards. I have a feeling Flemmings and Cacock will be the difference for us Saturday if we win.

31 pts for Adams.

Coming down to the wire, I think the Bonnies have the advantage with their guards. FT shooting contest and Hofstra loses.

This one is over...Hofstra falters at the end
