On the tourney web site, the "probable starters" are listed as: 6-2, 5-9, 5-8, 5-8, 5-9.
TN will have a definite height advantage.

And AU beat St J by 20+ points.

So we should be able to take care of business.:twocents:

St. John's resume doesn't look particularly impressive. They lost to Auburn and Florida among several other unranked teams and no wins against ranked ones although they did split with DePaul who is currently ranked but wasn't earlier in the season when St. John's beat them. However, if we come out for a full 40 minutes like we did the first 20 minutes against N'western St, then all bets are off. Us playing well is always a prerequisite.

We will win this game with our talent, unless we implode, and then the tourney will get more interesting for us.

I will be surprised if we don't pound them on the boards. If we have a great shooting night we probably win by 20 or more. If we shoot like last game this game will be single digits.

If STJ has only one player at 6'2" then we will have no mercy for them while we are in the paint be that on offense or defense. Izzy should have at least 20 rebounds & 25 points tonight.

I'd prefer to see Izzy rest and give lots of minutes to Russell and Jasmine Jones. Carter and Simmons should also be getting alot of rest with Reynolds playing 30+ minutes at both guard spots.

If they need 30+ minutes from Izzy, Carter and Simmons, then that means they are playing really badly.
