UTEP

[Aspen1]

Looking really good against OU.

OU not looking that great against anyone minus the Griffin brothers.

They shoot very well from deep, and they may be even better at it as the year goes on, as the team and especially Warren started very slowly on his three pointers last year (8-33 through 8 games, but finished at .372).

They do not rebound well. Opponents are getting a lot of good looks against their defense and taking advantage. Pledger in particular seems unwilling to move his feet to help out. There was one especially egregious play tonight in which Warren was beaten on the dribble and Pledger stood still and just kind of stuck a hand into the lane while the guy went for the layup.

OU will be pretty good, but they will have to shoot very well to overcome deficiencies.
