JwgreDeux 1,279 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Tonights game is going to be a good measuring stick on this AU team. Win or lose, there's a ton of games left to be played so it won't be a must win or anything. The reason I say it will be a good measure, is they are strong where we are strong, matchup-wise, and weak where we are weak. So we will likely be forced to perform better in our areas of weakness to win this game. They defend the 2 very well, but not the 3, can we make 3's? They offensive rebound very well and get to the foul line a ton, can we rebound better and not foul as much? They generate turnovers well, can we limit ours? This is a bad matchup for us. Have we grown enough to win this game. I'm glad this test is at home. Very interesting game tonight. 1 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/185811-am-going-to-be-a-good-measuring-stick/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,334 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Smells like a trap for sure. But I just hope the referees do not get in the way of the game. Let them play a little but call the obvious stuff.

AUGoo 2,776 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I have thought the refs have done a pretty decent job of late. Not sure I'd call it a trap. I think This is a signature game for both teams tonight.

Auburnfan91 1,408 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Here's an interesting note. After the loss last night, Pearl is now 1-4 against Texas A&M under Buzz Williams. It seems Buzz has Pearl's number. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/185811-am-going-to-be-a-good-measuring-stick/#findComment-3704642 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only watched the first half and saw mammoth wide voids in the lane for open layups. It was an early morning at work for me so I said goodnight at the half figuring that it was over.
