I'm sorry that I'm not quaking in my boots about this game. People like to throw hyperbole around for one team and not the other.

Understood.

This should be a 7-9 point lead type of game that ends in a 15+ point win.

That would be about perfect. But you're absolutely right - I want to see this team START the game with the defensive intensity we saw on Saturday.

I firmly believe that if we played that tough on defense every game, there is no one who could stop us getting to the Final Four.

Tech has risen from 111 to 69 in KenPom since conference season started (including 21 of those spots in the last 2 weeks). They're clearly playing like a top 40 team right now based on what they were able to do to OSU, OU, and ISU (2 games of which were on the road).

You don't need to be afraid, but you should respect the opponent.

ISU's crowd better not let us down. We need their boos tonight more than ever.
