keys to the game

Rain 3's
As said in another thread, all we really need is for MT to get 15
:jimlad:
 
1. Niang can't force his offense inside. Needs to keep his head up and look for the kick-out.
2. Thomas and Nader need to knock down a half dozen 3s from the corner.
3. Wait for your shot. Virginia won't run away offensively, unless we get impatient and our shot selection goes to crap.
 
We better shoot better than 40-45% or we could be in trouble.
 
Foul trouble
Not giving up second chance points
Shoot 3's like we did in Denver
 
ISU will win if 4 of any 7 happen:

1. ISU holds Virginia below 1.05 points per possession
2. there is no foul trouble for ISU that dictates amount of minutes played by any starters
3. ISU has less than 10 turnovers
4. ISU prevents Virginia from getting 10 or more offensive rebounds
5. shoots better than 38% from 3
6. shoots more free throws than Virginia
7. If Nader, Thomas, and Deonte have more than 9 points
