How often do you see a home ranked team as the underdog to an unranked team?

we should be able to defend them pretty well also because we wont have to extend our defense. We can afford to back off Releford some to help eliminate penetration and defensive breakdowns.<div>

They dominated us in both games. I think today will look very similar to our game against Arkansas in terms of what Bama will do defensively. A lot of on the ball pressure especially on Bost, and it's going to cause us to turn the ball over. I hope I'm wrong, but I would be surprised if we win. And I hope we can fix some of our perimeter defense. I've been less than pleased the last few games defending the 3 ball and the high pick and roll.
and have a career night from 3 point land. I'm also worried about our defense around the basket, especially defending the drive. We've struggled with that this year.
With the Saints game on at the same time, we might not have the biggest home court advantage ever. I still think we'll win. Hope so anyway.
I don't like saying/typing anything nice about MSU but your basketball crowds are far from the worst in the SEC. I have been to OM games where there were less than 100 students in the whole damn student section and it wasn't during winter break.
Who guards him... Hood ? I'm scared that's a tough matchup for Hood. Hopefully he'll get help around the bucket. If there is going to be a RAT from outside today for Bama... It will be T. Lacey.... He's the best 3 pt guy & has been hitting as of late. Also Randolph is decent.
I figured teams would exploit us big time on that, but they really haven't. Sid has done a halfway decent job of sagging back toward the middle of the court pretty early in the pickand putting himself in position to eitherhave a shot at defensing the guy driving, or to stay on his man.
