csims0917 Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 Drake got 1 AP top 25 vote this week. Winning the Cayman Islands make give Akron a chance at an AP vote🤔. Wouldn’t that be something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points. To answer my own question, Groce said he has the luxury of having 8 starters with 3 coming off the bench. On any given night each of these guys could get hot and help carry the team. Ali would make that 9 starters, better odds. Could you see Ali playing starters minutes, but coming in with the second wave off the bench?

Imagine a second wave that would include Ali, Thornton, Scott and Dawson.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin takes down Drake 92-68.  Wow. Completely shocked by that score. Drake was ranked as the top team in the MVC preseason poll and DeVries was the preseason POY. I really saw them as the favorite in the tourney. Looks like they relatively shut down DeVries and held their 6'10" big man to 9 points and 6 boards. The field goal percentage tells the story- SAF- 63%; Drake- 38.9%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 SFA winning by 24 is a bit shocking, but it shouldn't be considered that huge of an upset overall. It's not like SFA was a nobody. They went into the game ranked in the top 100 and were only a 4 point dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipsrule Posted November 20, 2023 Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 (edited) Agreed. Â The shock is not that Drake lost, but how badly they lost. Edited November 20, 2023 by zipsrule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got their best effort yesterday. And I can’t imagine that style holds up well with 3 games in 3 days unless they have tons of depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
