Over/Under for Barber?
- Thread starter Chaos
- Start date
Yeah, so long as we win, I couldn't care less how one guy does.
We had a guy score 31 against us today. It didn't help. I'd give Barber 31 right now if the whole rest of the team only combines for 30 more.
Hell, I'll give Cat 41 points -- same as TJ Warren -- just make sure you show up on the boards.
That was the ultimate example of one guy not being able to kill you on his own, IMO. Pitt outshot NCST in all facets that game, but NCST attempted 13 more FG (and 2 more FT) because they kicked Pitt's ass on the glass. I remember calling that L from my hotel room, Pitt shot some unsustainably high percent in the first half and got killed on the glass so you knew it would flip in the 2nd half if they didn't clean up the board work.
If a guy is going to get his, that's fine, just make sure you contain everybody else and rebound his misses. One guy alone won't beat you for 40 minutes.

They play without any identity on either end.
I think Abu is their most talented player over all.
Yea, Barber is going to get 25. I'll be shocked if he doesn't. We cant let a 2nd player go off, like Abu who is a beast on the glass. Cant let him get 20 and 17 like Charles Mitchell. Cant let Rowan have 5 3s......stuff like that.
NC State is going to be a very tough out.
NC State has zero depth and their "talent" has not shown up. any team that has to play Rowan for 35 minutes isn't very good. Barber is a really good player. many of the players NC State was counting on have not developed. I have no idea why Beejay Anya is not better than he is. Freeman is a non-factor. Pitt lost both of those kids in recruiting battles.
Between Barber and Rowan, you have two of the most selfish players in college basketball.
NCST is 0-5 in conference? Let Barber score 40, hold everybody else in check, and Pitt hangs 80 and gets the W. The Wolfpack are down right now, I want Pitt to keep them there.
