Something to get excited about!

Dayton's defense was really tough -- I was definitely impressed. Ruoff was really shutdown and barely had any good looks from the outside. You guys also rebounded as well as any team we have played this season.
I said it before, but I really think Dayton got seeded poorly -- they should have been more like a 7 or 8 w/ their resume. Of all the 11s we could have played, Dayton was the worst possible matchup for us. We essentially have the same style of play, but you guys have a more veteran team and a much deeper bench. It would not surprise me to see Dayton knock off Kansas on Sunday.
