UK as a #4 Seed - Best match up to advance?

[LukaszObrzut]

Ill say the team most likely to get beat by the 8/9 seed- so probably Purdue
Of the 3 one seeds- assuming Tenn gets the 4th- Ill take Uconn- up tempo will help us against them- I think we match well to their team

But the real question is= which 2 seed do we want because we are a 3 seed

I went with purdue. I think our team speed can mitigate the damage of edy. Also, watched a little of the Uconn game the other day. Think they would be a tough game. That said, more than these teams, I am nervous about a well-coached 2nd round opponent.

This is the correct answer. Shoot from outside and avoid Edey. Houston’s and UConn’s defense would be a much bigger problem

Agree completely. Purdue has no quickness and we have 3 seven-footers to throw at Edey. In addition, Edey never gets above the foul line or much outside the paint on defense. We could high ball screen that all night because there is no hedge on our guards would be shooting wide open 3 or driving down hill at Edey - - both are our strength.

Purdue’s Achilles heel is athleticism and shooting. This one was easy.

Purdue. They always choke.

Has to be Purdue. It would be the battle for the rights to use 'Big Z'!!!
