The Wiz Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Since we began the season with a number of question marks....it is only right that we start with Descartes It is very certain that, when it is not in our power to determine what is true, we ought to act according to what is most probable.....Descartes 1637 This should be an easy win....but if we go in with that attitude it won't be. SEMO starts the season with a grade of D......9 of their players have never played D-1...Pretty much their whole team is Brewer...He made the All OVC team last year as a freshman. averaging 14.5 ppg. This year he scored 25 pts against SW Baptist. He shot 91% from the FT line. (10-11) Does it mean anything against a team like SWB....Yes...It means if you leave him alone he will burn you. So what do the Bills need to do to win...make some shots....45/33/70...we could probably win with less but we should aim for at least these numbers to start getting in a groove for the season. Also , we need to cut the TOs in half from the last game (24) Again , not only to win but to get on track. Things are going to ramp up real quick in about 12 days....Seton Hall Bottom line...Stop Brewer and we win....Play well and we will beat more than just SEMO. rgbilliken likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set the bar low after the UMSL showing of 25%.....33% is actually a D-......35.6 will get you a C....the 33% will be good enough to get the 17 points....baby steps.

Glorydays2013 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Look I would love a Majerus defense but SLU won’t get that until Jordair, Evans,Barnett, McCall, somehow becomes the defensive coaches. And even then. Majerus is not our coach and Ford has never once said he is taking from his playbook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
