MB is following Eddie's formula (and guys on the current staff can help with that), you drill the hell out of the defense and you use the non-conference games to work on the offense. Eddie's teams always started a little slow because of this.
Defense travels really well in any sport on the road, particularly in basketball when taking a crowd that is right on top of you out of the game is important.
