Will Dayton slow the game down?

As I contemplate whether to play the 139 over/under on this game, it occurred to me that Dayton, short two players and fouls to give in the paint, may well want to slow this game down.

It will be interesting if they zone because of the difficulty in rebounding but they are #1 in the A-10 in rebounding. With the loss of their two guys they lose a couple of their better rebounders. X needs to make it a priority to hit the boards and stop Roberts. Last year Drew made their point(Warren) look like he never played basketball. Warren has looked a lot better this year but he hasn't been playing Drew. Sandoval also looked terrible against X but has been playing better this year.

bingo, muskieman! I lost my over pick badly.
The really sad thing is that here is a team that we play twice, high RPI just about to go into the tank. That team didn't just lose....it was falling apart right in front of us. Even with the easy home/away matchups, Dayton could be a team on the brink of disaster come Feb 24. I know we need to focus on us, but the Flyers last 10 games could be ugly.
