Who do you want? Houston or Purdue

I am always cautious about Purdue because none of the games we have played against them had a fair whistle, including one football game and two tournament BB games. If I knew the next game was going to be called fairly, I would be confident, but the fact that it’s in Indy concerns me a bit.

The fact that it would be a de facto home game makes it even more concerning.

Houston is not a flashy team. Don’t let it fool you.

I get they aren't flashy. But I just don't see them matching up. We both have an emphasis on defense. I just think we do it better. They don't have a defensive guard that compares to ZZ or Mashack. They don't have a Chaz Lanier. The late season performance of Gainey has made our offense formidable as well.

The UH logo is basically an exact copy of the UK logo. It’s like the same font and everything. I don’t know who had theirs first but either way they are both lame.

Matchup wise, Purdue is undoubtedly who we wanted. They struggle defensively which would, in theory, have benefited us. No secret that Houston is a defensive juggernaut.

On the flip side, (while I don’t think we would have lost) I’m not sure I could have handled yet another loss to Purdue. A win against Houston looks better on paper, and a loss won’t send me over the edge with frustration like a loss to Purdue would have. Probably a stupid way of looking at it, but that tracks for me.

Feels like, assuming Houston holds on, that Sunday’s attendance will boil down to how many unaffiliated fans decide to show up and how many Vol fans wake up tomorrow morning and tell their significant other “pack your bags, honey. We’re going to Indy”

It's looking like a defensive rock fight against Houston at this rate. First team to 50 wins Sunday.

They got a couple dude that can shoot that 3 ball, only one at really high clip though. I want Puride but I don't want them having that crowd on their side, but it isn't helping them as much as if yet.
