Congrats to UCF

[troymarkus]

You played a good game and beat a struggling Troy team on the road. This is going to be a tough year for us, but there is still hope. We'll see you guys at our place.

Thank you

That was a huge win for us considering you guys won 4 of 6 coming into the UCF Arena. Our starting PG (who came off the bench yesterday) who is one of the best in the conference was hooked up to an IV until 3 am that morning with flu-like symptoms. We were also shorthanded by one starter and our 6th man, both of whom play huge roles for our team. We were a very tired and banged up team coming in.

There is no question in my mind that Troy will make some noise down the stretch and can pull the upset against higher seeded teams in the tournament.

Like I've said before, Troy lives and dies by the three. Unfortunately this year since our inside talent is still new, we are playing by your style and thats very risky business. I'm nervous that our three point shots will not fall one of these days in a huge game. As far as Troy is concerned, I really think he needs to lay back on the press with all of these new starters. He needs to ease his team into getting used to doing that because we saw some obvious fatigue from that side.

Should be quite the matchup in Troy, AL.
