Game Thread: ASU @ UNLV (First road match up)

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

Notes: Jahii is a road warrior and Jermaine has had plenty of experience. But how will guys like Shaq, Murray, Robinson handle the road, we need them.

Grew up going to A LOT of UNLV games. Watched UA go in there a few years back and get manhandled all night. Also watched a not very good Cal team go in there and use their tempo against them. Regardless, ASU is going to need to play well because it's going to be loud for a Tuesday. Not a lot of ppl are too high on Rice and the team has struggled so far this year. Looking forward to a very good game.

You guys open as 4 point favorites on the road vs UNLV. Not a very common site. Granted UNLV has struggled this season. Don't disappoint the Pac-12.

Okay we will try not to.......... Like when you guys lost to Washington State in football really embarrassed the state at home on your homecoming. Run along now..........

We could lose. I just dont like the comment "Dont dissapoint the Pac-12 " its way to early and its an early road game.

I've got a lot of ASU friends at this game and a lot of UNLV friends at this game.. My family is literally split down the middle in ASU/UNLV gear.. I would love nothing more than to blow this Rebel team out of the water tonight! Jahii is going to have a huge game. UNLV has struggled with penetration. Do we play man against the "Running Rebels" or zone? Herb said he wants to commit to man but we'll see. Fear the Devil.

Isn't UNLV and UA on the same level? Both have one NC..

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

Lmao ^ but yea, its nice not to have Evan Gordon and instead have a shooting guard thats more consistant Jermaine Marshall is 100x better than Evan Gordon that was a great pick up. Im just really interested to see how Shaq and Richie play. Shaq starting at the 3 until Kearney comes back and Richie is a back up 4 which is something we really need especially since hes more of a true 4 while Gilling is a stretch 4. I like our back up guards Murray and Robinson. Go Devils!

Don't need to settle for 3's tonight.. But if we get hot why not? Rebels have a hard time getting back on D because they're busy "Running." Get in the lane and use Bach is what I'd like to see.

I know.. What the hell was I thinking.. UNLV's NC year they were Dominant.. Won 35 games.. UA only won 25 in there's.. UNLV is a much better program.
