all true but knowling and bez don’t make this a good matchup.
We are probably a Paul Atkinson and Jordan bruner away from that!

There have been quite a few tight games so far.

Graci
Last night I watched highlights of edey and Williams and some of the seton hall-yale replay
Yikes. I am not sure how to body this guy. He’s so athletic for his size he throws big 10 bodies around
Williams is a chance of pace but equally scary
Hope the kids hit some shots!

Hope springs eternal! Saint Peter's is a worse team than Yale who beat a better team than Purdue - it's always possible. I agree with James, though; gotta hit shots.

it’s the mix with Ivey that is brutal.
that big 3 play well off each other though usually 2 in the game at once
the hope is that the matchups at other 3 spots go better o to d.
I was also alarmed at how little swain looks in the shu game.
got covered up at time
Anytime go ‘dogs!

Yes, I'm sure there were plenty of MAAC fans thinking "Oh no! We're not sending our regular season champion to the tournament! We're going to get slaughtered with our second place team!"

On a related note, Jacksonville State hanging with Auburn in the early going.

Ivey is hurting Yale more than the big fella so far.

Right now only Kelly with 2 fouls. Bigs need to stay out of foul trouble to have a shot later in the game.

Disappointing at the half.
Been a tough year for Ivy schools in general against better competition.

Purdue just too big, strong and quick. Hate to see Yale go down 20 on some bad turnovers and poor shot selections.

Yes, early optimism trampled. Back to the Ivy drawing board.

Bad matchup. Flaws on strengths and out too much pressure on shotmaking. Not yales strength and not getting much separation with lane off limits

about what I expected
Would’ve thought we’d shoot better but there was 0 separation in 2md half and we cldnt throw it in ocean after cutting to 9
Then they took foot off gas and we looked gassed
Decent defense though as expected

Yeah, whaddaya gonna do? Ivey showed why he's a projected top-5 pick, and the big guys got whatever they wanted, as expected of two ~7 footers who weigh three bills. Shame this was the draw - Yale would've had a much better chance against Providence or Wisconsin, but them's the breaks. The future looks bright, though - good team defense, and Jarvis and Knowling showed some good flashes.

Agree. We had flaws. They were exposed. We needed a lot to go our way. It didn’t. My god did they get some free throws. And didn’t miss much
Defense was good when not called for a foul. Jarvis will be good if healthy
