    If things break right, they absolutely can make it. Team has all the credentials of a team that can go far.

    Of course. They have a 5-man backcourt to play with anybody. Their achilles heel will be a team with 3-4 athletic bigs who can defend the paint and rebound. Coogs don't really have an inside scoring presence.

    yes they can. they have all the boxes checked needed for a team looking to make a deep run.

    but as in any ncaa tourney thats one and done, you also need a little bit of luck on your side as well that they can't control

    I thought for a moment the reality of being a Houston sports fan was about to set back in

    They are absolutely relentless defensively and tougher than hell. They could go really far barring injury or some fluke performance from an opponent ala NC State back in the day. I wouldn’t want to match up against them in the tournament.

    Jerreau has a ways to go with decision making. These are the type of teams coogs will face in the early rounds. Gotta play with that underdog mentality the whole way and finish the game.

    And ft’s at the end of a game is what killed them last year. Looks like it can still bother them this year
