For what it’s worth at this point, Towson in KenPom 85 and a 4 point favorite.

Interesting that Penn is the favorite on ESPN analytics.

Feels like a pickem game to me. Towson is not very deep and does not appear to present big matchup issues. They are, however experienced and strong defensively. Tell me if our 3s go down and I’ll tell you who wins. I would think Penn will try and run on them and MLL could have a big game in transition at the beginning and the finish.

Have these refs heard of home court advantage or did Towson bring the refs with them, lol. Offenses have grinded to a halt but some pretty rough calls and bad foul disparity.

Towson is a good defensive team but offense is brutal.

Penn shoots too many threes and has too many turnovers.

I’m at the game and have a single word.
Brutal.
Whois this guy who stole Dingle’s uniform?

Yeah, so far this season Dingle has been a turnover machine and not shooting well. Not a good recipe for a team leader.

We just do not have any viable inside game. So a lot of outside shots and 3 pt shots to try to make up for it.

And just like that, down to 10, but it has been an uphill struggle all the way in this one.

If Dingle had played like this in the first half, we're looking at a very, very tight contest.

I’ll be honest, I don’t get the lineup choices or the substitution patterns and also they aren’t working.
We’ve fought our way back… to being down 10-12 points… against Towson at the Palestra.
Ed Holland should play every minute we have him available.

It's tough to win when you aren't much of a threat inside and at least so far you don't have any consistent threats from deep.

Nice run at the end, but too little too late.
But at least it's good to know that Dingle still has it.

That was quite the second half by the Quakers--50 points, and many of them in a big flurry towards the later stages.

It's perplexing how much better some of the offensive sets were when there were under 2 minutes left in the game. Drive penetration, finding the open man, good movement off-ball. Where is this for the other 38 minutes.
