For them. Hope he is wrong. It also seems they thought they were going to be a 13 seed so they think they have a real chance to advance now.

Hope this gets plastered so all BYU players can see it… blatant disrespect.

They are excited to play BYU?

Did they circle this game??

Unfortunately no one actually circled it so we are out of luck

I hope BYU doesn't need extra motivation to beat this team. We are the higher

I just LOVE IT when opposing players, and even coaches say stuff like this!!!

Since he's watched them play, I hope he give them the usual: old, non-athletic

Probably could have been a 13 which moving to 11 might be committee compensating BYU for not being a 5.

interesting thought

Darn. Doesn't look like any Duquesne player said they have the game circled.

They are a 13 seed. And byu is a 5. They’re about to get wrecked

5 seeds only get wrecked by 12 seeds so we should be fine.

Tell me you know nothing about BYU without saying you know nothing about BYU.

Sounds like a generic phrase you'd apply to any team you didn't know.

or to a conference you don't know. CB used to post that Fouss was gonna get...

So much of the BBall world has already forgotten about a guy like Charles Barkley. 6' 6" and still killed teams down low

Traore fits that. For a 5 he is short, big, and strong.

I've heard quite a few coaches talk post-game about our physicality, actually

Compared to Duquesne we are bigger and Fous is going to be a load for their frontcourt to handle.

slatecoug

Mar 18, 12:25pm

We are not big and strong…

No doubt they will beat us if we don't shoot baskets.

I'm not worried about shooting baskets, I'm worried about making baskets.

I know it ruins the whole "faux outrage" thing, but I thought they were all

Kind of wishful thinking on their part. But okay….
