Dayton/Florida

[temperflare]

Watching this game... And I am confident our Cyclones would win against either of these teams.

I realize it's coulda woulda shoulda talk, but i haven't seen anything by either team even in their other tourney games that would tell me our chances of beating either team would be less even without Niang.

Dayton's playing not to get blown out, so they will be brutally crushed.

Possibly. They seem to be very tentative and non-aggressive in the paint. Florida doesn't seem to have much urgency either. Neither team impresses me in the way the other elite 8 teams do. Maybe slow and methodical is what makes them good?

Dayton has been very energetic and aggressive in their other tournament games.
They haven't been playing maniacal in those games, but they get after it and put pressure on teams.
They've done some of that here in the second half. They're coming to lay now, so this might get a little better.

Dayton trying to make a comeback but rebounding is killing them.

At least it's going to be an interesting finish.
