And I disagree with one point. I think we can run on you guys. What impacts that is our defensive rebounding. Can we get enough opportunities to run?
WSU hits the o-boards hard, and because of that, is susceptible to allowing break opportunities. Of course, WSU is the 4th best 3 point shooting team in the country, and one of the best offensive rebounding teams in the country, so a few things have to go right for UD to get run out opportunities, much less capitalize on those opportunities.

Right or wrong, I personally have lamented playing all this lesser competition. I believe our team is built to thrive when playing a more physical brand of basketball, ie the game that is played at the top end of D1 ball.
I believe it's entirely possible that WSU will get even better playing bigger, stronger, more physical and athletic teams. HOWEVER, that assumes they won't have a (negative) adjustment period, and that more than anything, is the x factor.
I'm not saying UD can't or shouldn't win. Clearly the metrics, rankings and Vegas say that already, at least they say WSU is more likely to win than not. The teams will decide who wins.

I like Dayton and if I am Miller I am playing the underdog. I just hope Shox don't go flat early, like they have done in the past and try to play catch up. I think Dayton will win that scenario. Why I am optimistic, WSU has played great last 5 games, Dayton hasn't. I am thinking the Shox will win this 77- 68
