Maybe I am wrong...

But the more I look at Ohio St schedule the better I feel.

Is Ohio State a good team? The answer is no. They're a great team. They're great athletes and they're very well coached. Are they beatable? Absolutely. Not only are they beatable, they're playing with tremendous pressure on them. They're expected to win. Millions of people have them winning the National Championship. Nobody outside our fan base is giving us much of a shot.

We're getting them at a great time. They're having to play us with our backs against the wall...with us playing arguably our best basketball of the season. I like our chances against Ohio State. Our guys can win this game if they listen to Coach Cal and play loose, smart basketball.

I hear ya man but they are a formidable team. Strong inside and outside so we'll have to play well to beat them. I say let Sullinger get his but shutdown the perimeter, can't afford to let them get hot from outside the arc. The one advantage we have is team speed but I'm sure they won't want to get in a track meet.

If we stay out of foul trouble, I think we can hang with them. When need Lamb in this game, he doesn't need to get 3 stupid fouls in the first half. I say we take it right at them and get em into foul trouble. We have to shut down the 3. I am hoping friday will be than one night Ohio st can't hit nothing.

I agree with Agent. Let's channel our inner Rupp and let Marovich (Sullinger) get his and stop everyone else. I know Harrelson is up for the challenge, but Sullinger is on a different level. I suspect they'll try to get Josh in foul trouble, and then we're left with Vargas. If they can shut down Diebler and the bunch, then UK has a good shot.

The fact is they are a great team. They weren't as good as our team last year. We lost, so can they.

Maybe I'm dumb, but I gotta feelin. UK is going to win this game. Like BD said, the more I look at the season, the more confidence I get.

For UK to win this game, I believe they have to shut down the 3 ball. I see Cal slowing the game down. Miller is going to have to step up in this game, we already know Knight and Lamb can hit, but Miller has to step up like he did in other games and be the leader. NOW is the time for the CATS to show passion.

Can't let guys like Lighty go 7 for 7 from 3. In the 2 games they lost the #uckeyes were a combined 7 for 24. Purdue absolutely smothered them on the perimeter. If we shut them down from 3 we win. They shoot 42% from 3 on year. We keep them below 35%, we win. I don't want to get my hopes up, and be disappointed like last year, but I think we can get them.

Lets shock the world!!

Don't forget about Diebler. I think he has set some records for OSU behind the 3 line. He is shooting around .500 for the year and has taken 220 shots from long range. That's pretty damned impressive.

I got a feel about this game. Liggins will play good defense. We need these guys to all play at once. They all need to show up and be the team we know they can be. Miller needs to play well. I don't think they need the games of their lives but they all need to show up and play 40 minutes of ball. This is what makes good tournament teams and teams the go home and watch the finals on TV.

hell yes boys!

Proud of our Veterans and our Young Guys, Complete game. GO CATS!!!!!!!!!!!
