The UNT men are about to begin a key two-game road trip here at the Cajundome against ULL and once again the Mean Green Blog will be updated with a few random tidbits and updates throughout the night. UNT and ULL enter the night in a three-way tie atop the Sun Belt Conference West Division with Arkansas-Little Rock at 9-7. UALR has the tiebreaker edge should it end up in a tie with UNT for first place. UNT has already beaten ULL once at home. The key to UNT's win in the last meeting between the teams was its advantage in the post. The Mean Green pounded the ball inside to Quincy Williams, who finished with 18 points. Keith Wooden didn't play in the teams' last game, but should be able to clean up inside tonight. ULL starts four players who are at least 6-7, but none of them have the strength to contend with the Mean Green's post players. Former UNT assistant coach Jai Steadman has addressed that problem in recruiting, landing three big post players who will be will ULL next season. That won’t help the Cajuns tonight, though. While UNT has the advantage inside, it’s always iffy at best to bank on the Mean Green to win away from the Super Pit. UNT is 2-5 in conference play away from the Pit this season. |
