I don't see us going on the road and winning, but will cheer the Redbirds on like crazy anyway.

I think we should win this one. Fresno St. is hurting right now. They have no depth and no one to stop us in the post. The guy they were counting on is ineligable. They lost 2 of their top 3 scorers from last year who also happen to be their top two rebounders as well. They graduated some other guys who weren't as impactful but took up a lot of minutes.

They have one go-to player that drained a bunch of 3's at the end of their exhibition game to save them from losing. Really only one guy to worry about on their team and i'm fairly confident that we will be able to limit him.

This redbird team seems totally different this year. They look like they are playing at a much faster pace and have a new confidence about them. They shot pretty well from the outside in Canada and in our exhibition. If that continues tonight we should be able to pull away fairly easily.
