I see we're 10 point favorites with the Vegas line.

Any word on status of Dante Allen?

In looking at that starting lineup, Henderson listed as a Guard and Udeh as a Forward? Udeh is def a "5" and Henderson a Forward I would think.

He is listed as probable on the injury report
 
This is a game we should win, but somehow they disembowled a decent Penn St team so hopefully they're not starting a hot streak.
 
Vital to win these home games against the bottom third or so of the league if we want to make it to the tourney. 6-0 against Pitt/GT/BCX2/FSUX2 would go a long way for our chances (it would at least give us a margin for error against the top and middle of the league).
