Flyers or Billikens?

[picknroll]

Which team would X rather play, and why? I'd say the Flyers because 1) we know their personnel better and and seem to match up better with them, and 2) they often play poorly away from UD Arena.

Interesting quote from St. Louis paper.

"The loss left SLU at 16-14 overall and in a three-way tie for ninth in the league at 7-9. The Billikens won the tiebreaker with Rhode Island and Duquesne by virtue of having defeated third-place Massachusetts on Feb. 2, but that may not be a good thing. While the 10th or 11th seed would have given SLU a first-round game against a team it had already beaten, the No. 9 spot gives SLU a first-round game with Dayton at 11 a.m. (St. Louis time) Wednesday in Atlantic City, N.J. The teams have met twice this season, with Dayton having won both, 68-57 in overtime on Jan. 12 and 63-36 in Dayton on Jan. 30. And for good measure, the winner will face No. 1 seed Xavier in the second round Thursday, again at 11 a.m.

But if SLU doesn't change the way it's playing, the opponent may not matter."

I'd rather play SLU. I've never liked having to beat a team 3 times in one season, and UD certainly has more talent than SLU.

SLU hands down. We won that game on a tip-in, but remember how we got to that point... blew like an 18 point lead or something crazy like that, and Kevin Lisch dropped in 12 points in the final 65 seconds of the game. What TEAM scores 12 points against us in 65 seconds, let alone a single PLAYER? We'd crush them like a bug playing them a second time around. And winning thrice is just plain hard... ask the Dallas Cowboys!

anybody, anytime, anywhere.

prefer UD though

On a neutral court and with a healthy Drew I don't see us losing in Jersey. We have had a tough time with SLU for the past couple of years, but Dayton knows that the ONLY way they can get an at large would be to take X down and get to the championship. With either team I wouldn't be surprised if we beat them by thirty or three. Lets just hope for a triple overtime game that exhausts each team out.

SLU

No matter how good we are, playing UD wouldn't be favorable seeing as they are a rival and (basically) playing for the post-season.
