Max only had 2 rebounds and we were outrebounded as a team 38 to 34. I
applaude our dramatic improvement but am cautious to say that we have turned
the corner.

UC did get votes. The polls at ESPN have some votes missing on them. If
you
notice.. UC, UCLA, & Georgia all dropped out of the polls and none of them
recieved votes. I think UC got 76 points in the AP and 41 in the coaches.

It was good to see the Bearcats play tight man to man D tonight compared
to
Dayton where they were playing off their man way too far. Max was a man on
the boards tonight and Johnson looked good. It's amazing how much easier
it
is to rebound when you box out.

Good to see Barker driving and dishing also instead of just passing it
around the perimeter. Valpo's D had to collapse when he drove past his man
leaving Field and Bobbitt open on the perimeter for wide open looks.

While I suspected that UC would drop from the top 25, I was a bit
surprised
to see that they didn't even get a single vote in either of the polls.
Also
worth noting that Huggins is one of the voters in the coaches poll.

Not that this bothers me, it seems to be a pattern the last two years
which
has yielded good results later in the season.
