I guess we can hope that lessons were learned on the road last week. We will certainly have to clean up our game to beat EWU. They are the hottest team in the league right now and are sitting on top with a 3-0 record. They have several guys who can hurt you if you let them. Coward is a tall wing, power forward combo who is a load to gaurd. Casey Jones is a 6'6'' wing who can do a bit of every thing, much like our Jones. Price is a 6'10'' post who can also step out and hit the 3. They are well coached and it will take a much better defense and rebounding game from our Wildcats than what we saw last week.
The keys for us to win are playing a solid, switching defensive game and holding our own on the boards. We need to get back to the defensive form that got us past UM.
The formula to win the BSC hasn't changed. Win your home games and at least half of your road games. From here on out we need to get at least one road sweep, win all of our home games, and split the rest of the road games. It is within our capacity to do that, but it will take a much greater effort in all of our games. We can not just go through the motions and expect to win. Most all teams get better as the season goes on and if we don't do it as well, we will get left behind. That would be awful because this team has great potential. They also have the potential to hang with the bottom feeders. It's a choice they are going to be making real soon here.
It's all about defense and rebounding.
