Homers like us??? I see a bunch of "us" dissing on VCU fan... but, see little if any of "us" making statements/predictions on OSU winning this game? I know we all want to win this and move on, BUT how many of you are as sure as VCU fan?
Bracket or no bracket... what chance do you give OSU of advancing?

I know we all want to win this and move on, BUT how many of you are as sure as VCU fan? Bracket or no bracket... what chance do you give OSU of advancing? I think it is pretty 50-50, and I like our odds here better than against team with true bigs. VCU lacks real bigs and I think we match up well because of it. They have only a pair of fairly big body bangers, but nobody like a Jakob Poeltl or an Ivan Rabb. It allows us to stay with our strengths and deploy a guard-centric line up and use Eubanks for offense over needing him to pretend to play defense. I think we can hang in there with the boards and If our boys can get a little hot, knock down some shots and most importantly SHOOT FREE THROWS!!! I think we can win this one. VCU isn't as crazy pressure as they have been in the past, but they still are a pressure defense which opens them up to fouling a bit. we need to be money from the line. After that, not sure we match up very well against Oklahoma. |

I don't think any Pac-12 team is as ready for the tournament as it could be, and I partially blame Pac-12 refs. We get every ticky-tack call imaginable, then when things get physical in the tourney, we get no calls. And our boys quit finishing plays, just assuming they're getting to the line. We don't have the physicality to hang with VCU, IMO.

Didn't see the Zona or USC games, did they have trouble adjusting to the different style of officiating - more physical?
