Coogs by 1 you Cooglians!!!

I can’t believe I’m this excited about a team other than my own. The Coogs have been a joy to watch for the past 2-3 seasons. The way CKS has built the team and the way he has them playing the game is just so much fun to watch. I really want a deep enough run to get the entire city pumped up about Cougar Basketball. Last year I said all season long that the Coogs were a S16 team and I was only off by a made 30 footer.
This year is Elite 8 / Final Four. Just need a couple of good bounces at the right time.
It’s a Cougar Red Friday for me today GO COOGS!

Said Panthers guard D’Marcus Simonds: “They really like to play in transition and work hard defensively. They’re really similar to how we play.”
With this difference. Simonds again: “They really crash the glass.”
Georgia State ranks 334th of 351 Division I teams in rebounding margin. Houston is No. 8. Hunter insists that rebounding “is one of the most misleading stats out there” – to be fair, it can be hard to rebound when playing a zone – but that would appear to be the one place the Panthers don’t measure up. Still, the NCCA tournament isn’t a best-of-7; it’s one game, and if the Panthers start making 3-pointers, Houston might have to go smaller than it wants.
Key matchup: Damon Wilson vs. Corey Davis Jr.
It’s likely Wilson, Georgia State’s 6-foot-5 guard, will be assigned to the Cougars’ leading scorer. An off-and-on starter, Wilson moved back into the starting lineup — allowing Devin Mitchell to come off the bench — to provide a tough perimeter defense in the Panthers’ 2-3 matchup zone. Davis, a first-team All-AAC selection, has been nursing a strained hip suffered in the league tournament game. The injury bothered Davis, who was just 3-of-13 from the floor for 12 points in his worst game of the season
It’s gameday baby!!! Let’s start the road to the championship

Against K State and Cincy Ga St was up by a very small margin with 9 minutes left to play then lost by double digits. The same script may show up tonight.

I think CKS is more insulted by the “rebounding is overrated” comment than the “grandpa” comment.

The old argument that we don’t travel well is no longer true. UH fans will show up when we’re excited.

Every game was a road game for me when I lived in Central Texas and Grand Prairie. I was proud to travel and to rep all of Houston. I dove up and down I-35 with my UH door logos on my Mustang!
