1. Excepting the utterly atrocious defense in the first seven minutes of the second half, that was a solid team performance. Everyone contributed.
2. Wayne Chism played the first 20 minutes with the intensity he needs to bring every moment he's on the floor. His teammates dampened the flame a little bit by not getting him the ball in the second half.
3. The offensive balance UT displayed tonight was nice. That said, Hopson will have to be more assertive against good opponents.
4. If Bob Huggins grabs a player by the jersey, he's an out of control bully. If Bruce Pearl does it, he's passionate and intense. Kissing the media's collective ass has its privileges.
5. I'll be interested to see how this lineup handles a team that can really pressure the ball. Prince and Woolridge handling the ball a great deal is an iffy proposition.
6. When Charlotte was in C-USA and I saw them on a fairly regular basis, I asserted that 49er fans were among the biggest douchebags in college sports. Some things never change.
7. Having seen them live for the first time in a few years, I'm now certain why Charlotte has deteriorated since entering the A-10. They're no damn good.
8. Good win for Marquette, who finally won a close game. I won't be at all surprised if Georgetown has another rough Big East campaign.
9. Somebody around here mentioned Cornell being pretty good. That guy is really, really smart.
10. Sunday will be fun. Number 1 coming to town should always get everyone juiced, regardless of the circumstances.
