  2. Battle of Styles: Why Chattanooga’s 3-point reliance (39% of their points) clashes with UNCG’s need to score from the charity stripe (21% of their points).
  3. Inside Presence: The importance of Justin Neely and K.J. Younger to pull the defense away from the perimeter.
  4. The Health Factor: How the availability and rhythm of Chattanooga’s personnel, specifically Collin Mulholland, could shift the tide for the Mocs.
