OSU gets the No. 1 team in the country this weekend.
Not to nitpick, but it’s “no rest for the weary”. I’d hate to think of the hoops players as wicked, anyway. Not sure how weary they are, either, for that matter. They looked pretty juiced against BYU. Hoping they give Arizona more than they can handle with defensive pressure.
I’d give us a puncher’s chance if this were in Stilly, but given our road history, and this matchup, I’ll be happy if the game is reasonably competitive.
Arizona is to big and athletic. No chance.
We likely aren’t winning this game but we’ve come out with some good competitive energy. These guys are big and talented.
Could get real ugly
rebounding is a week link for us and really don’t have anybody that is good at finishing at the rim. If we don’t shoot well in games it usually doesn’t turn out well. Defense can’t keep us in games yet either but getting better which is a plus.
Well I think it’s over now. Came out with good energy but man we just missed some easy ones and got behind and Arizona is wayyyyyy too good to come back on when you slide just a bit behind.
yeah, just out man on this one lol.
Yeah. This is a combination of us missing shots and simply playing a better team. I think our effort and energy is there. It would be closer if we hit some shots we normally make but AZ is simply better.
Need more out of the rest of team other than Roy going further but I assume we will be just outside of the bubble in the end.
