Jerry breaks down the SHU/RU matchup
- Thread starter Halldan
- Start date
Good in depth analysis. He picks the Hall by seven. He does point out a few areas where RU could have an advantage perhaps size on the boards.
Posted something like this on the Trove. RU is 5-5 with three blowout losses to Tennessee, Purdue and Michigan. Could SHU have gone much better against those three. Our three best games (2-1), are better than RU’s 1-1 vs ND and UNLV. Still closer than it seems.
Have to continue to bring the D, hopefully the 3 ball holds up to bring Pikes D out and have Budd continue to run an efficient offense and avoid silly fouls. If we can do these, we should be ok.

All it takes in college basketball is for an underdog to have a hot night from 3, especially one or two players, and they win…. Their Euro freshman is capable of that. It’s also the prime reason why RU won in Newark two years ago.
