Exhibit A

For anyone who doesn't understand why BF's system is successful, watch a tape of ISU's first round win over Washington.

UW could score, and did early. But once ISU found its offense, UW was on its heels. As ISU cranked up the defensive pressure, forcing UW to take the shots it didn't want, the positive feedback loop built. ISU dropped two big runs on the Huskies to build a 13 point halftime lead, and UW never recovered.

Scary stats: ISU is 20-2 when leading at halftime, 19-1 when they outrebound their opponent, 24-3 when scoring 60 points or better and 18-0 when scoring 70 points or better. Wow.

Bring on Georgia.
