This really has been a great start. It’s pretty exciting to see dark horse teams winning by playing solid basketball rather than just shooting the lights out. 4 year players are so key.

I think your overall point is a good one. Barnes is a “system” guy especially defensively, which plays into how he overall plays the game.

Offense
Both teams are unselfish and preach sharing the ball. A&M is a balanced scoring team. Sloan showed in the first round against Utah State, for example, that he can defer when his teammates have things going. Purdue once again will have to rely on JaJuan Johnson and E’Twaun Moore to produce, and hope

You guys compared this team to last year’s Patriots and compared Colt to Joe Montana. I really think we compare well to the Super Bowl Colts. The way Colt manages the offense really reminds me of Manning, and their two receivers (Harrison and Wayne) are a lot like Shipley and Cosby, not the fastest or biggest guys in the league but they run great routes, they never drop the ball and they seemed to always be on the same page with Peyton.
ChrisApplewhite said:

I put into my liveblog of the OSU game that Quan is the college Marvin Harrison. He isn’t fast or tall but his intangibles are practically tangible.
We have a QB and 2 WRs with an absolute mastery of the game of football on the team and it’s a joy to watch. They play like they travel back in time after each snap and run the play knowing what’s coming and what they need to do.
They trio probably makes each other look better than they actually are, but someone could talk me into Quan having a legitimate NFL career. Tell me a guy like Tom Brady or Donovan McNabb couldn’t make use of his skillset.

They discontinued TEX a few years ago. Maybe around 2003. Could have been 04. It was a sad, sad day in Longhorn history.
On a complete side note, I was in choir at UT and sang at all the big graduation celebrations every year. One year, one of the speakers was the guy who voiced TEX (I can’t remember his name for the life of me). The crowed went absolutely bonkers when he did his “Goodbye, and Good Luck.”
I was hoping they’d have preserved some of his more recognized phrases in audio format somewhere on the UT website. Never have been able to find it, though.
