Um, Vanderbilt, as a team, shot about their average percentage from 3 pt. range. We just saw Foster go on an unbelievable streak. But they couldn't get anything from the inside. Ignore Foster's performance. We still beat Vandy if we shoot a decent percentage from the free throw line or just a bad percentage from 3 pt. range. There is no doubt in my mind that Vandy is a top ten team when they play on their home floor. Our performance was impressive to say the least.
Our team has made SIGNIFICANT strides in my opinion these last two games. We have discovered a very effective zone (Stans doing) and our rebounding (especially limiting offensive rebounds) has been absolutely tremendous. With our great defense, limiting second chance points is key. Vandy only had 12 second chance points tonight and only shot 7 or 8 more times than we did. The number one reason why we have been so successful in these last two roads game has been our dominant defensive rebounding. Number two has been controlling our turnover problem.
Additionally, Rhodes has finally become the player we all thought he could be. He is consistently dominant. That makes us scary especially if we have Hans or Stewart really hot during a game.
