CCH wins this one by 10-15. This isn't a bold or outlandish statement whatsoever. They lost by 2 in one of their most poorly played games of the season, IMO. Missed 13 either uncontested or nearly uncontested layups throughout the game. Knox was a physical prescence inside, and without him the Colonels have the advantage inside. After watching Holmes in a few games this year it looks as though Rice plays on the perimeter and, with help-side defense, will not be a huge force inside. He'll drop 14-18.. The question is, can anyone else score efficiently enough with Palmer (assumingly) out? I know Coston can hit the trey and is a somewhat proficient driver, but that leaves 3 extra Colonels to help off of their men and contain Holmes' main gamers. The Colonels D on Jan. 10th was absolutely horrendous. Their defense both individually and as a whole has improved immensely over the past 6 or so weeks. They are at their peak and IMO will almost ROLL through Holmes tomorrow night. They are just meshing at this point of the season and it seems like they love to shoot in Regent's because they didn't miss many shots against HC. It'll be a fast, physical, and emotional game for both teams. I just think the Colonels go off tomorrow and win the District Championship for the first time since I believe 06'? They're well overdue.
