Carolina will kill us on the boards

[mazda1]

They owned the offensive glass against Texas. Most of our rebounding hasn’t been stellar on the D glass. Expect a ton of second chance points for NC. If I’m Fran I’d be running some MSU rebounding drills. No need to leak out until the D board is secured. Hoping for a win and other parts of NC’s game need work, but if they kill us on the boards that will make up for a lot of deficiencies.

I’m sure Iowa will put an emphasis on it. Probably hurts a little going the other way in transition but I think Iowa will knock down enough shots to win.

Nunge will be the key. Luka can't do it alone. NC has two players who have over 40" vertical leaping ability. Fran seems to recruit shooters and not board pounders.

No they won't because Iowa will shoot 60% from 2 and 48% from 3. Not a lot of boards with that kind of shooting

60% percent is doable. The women's team shot 61% tonight and scored 103 at Drake, and they only shot 41% from the 3.

NC will have a lot of chances for offensive rebounds because they can’t shoot worth a damn
