Oh Mass of good no doubt, but Salukis may have strongest home court in country, especially vs. non-conference oppnents that are not used to that atmosphere.

No opinion on this game but the Salukis were definitely a disappointment last year. Perhaps, they will turn things around this season.

Yes but even in a bad year, they were 14-4 SU at home and beat their non-conference opponents by an average of 10.6 points. And ir wasn't a cream puff schedule either.

Falker and Shaw WERE the team last year though. They sure had a non Missouri Valley level recruiting class this year though (2 guys rated 90+ by ESPN)
