At 4-2, UNH is off to a nice start this season, featuring a nice inside-outside scoring balance. However, despite narrow wins against Harvard and Liberty, they barely beat 0-6 Army, and lost pretty handily to BC and BU.

They're led by their inside-outside 6-8 sixth man Janev, and have good size inside with freshman 6-8 Christensen and 6-8 250 Sturgill. They also have a nice lighting-quick freshman guard Vetrano, who at 5'8, shares a small backcourt with 6'1 Andersen, a slashing guard. 6-7 Walls is their top shot blocker, and also gets significant minutes.

While they're pretty big inside, they're a -3 in rebounding margin. Defensively, however, they're very tough, holding opponents to a paltry 39% shooting. Offensively, they have nice balance and their top six all average between 9 and 12 ppg.

This is another game Brown should win at home, but I expect them to struggle some with UNH's size inside. Brown always needs the offense to be clicking for them to win, and tonight will be no different.

Sure would be nice to even up the record before the exam break. We've posted three solid performances in a row and four in a row is a lot to expect from this young and inexperienced a team. I'm a little concerned that we might be due for a let down.

I'm with you. Very easy to feel good about recent performance and be looking past tonight's game for some rest and studying. You could be right. Let's hope not.
