For people claiming we have an ā€œeasyā€ path, this OSU is as hot as any team in the country right now.

More BS about making shots.

At this point in the Tournament, I don’t see our team losing to a 12 loss team who finished in the middle of their conference standings. Oregon State is hot, but so are we. Ten game winning streak.

Hopefully we’ll win and move on to the Final Four to face Baylor or Arkansas.

Oregon St is A LOT better than their record. It took them a while but they are rolling now. This game will be a war. Their height will give us trouble.

Time to take back Harris County.

I don’t think it is going to be easy but teams and individuals always regress towards the mean. They are playing way outside of how they played most of the year. We are playing pretty much how we played all year. Given those two facts, I think the Coogs win this game along the lines of the Syracuse score.

In the Sagarin recent ratings that rate how good a team is currently playing. OSU is 5 and UH is 6. For comparison Loyola Chicago is 8 and Syracuse is 14.

I hope two things:

  1. that we still have gas left in our tanks after 'Cuse, and
  2. that we aren’t ā€œlooking pastā€ Oregon State.

Damn I want to see us get back in the Final Four…and get there in CONVINCING fashion!!!

GO COOGS!!!

I worry about their size. Hope we stay Savage

This is a good thing. The refs will be in our favor because the money is on Oregon.

Thanks. So we should expect the whistles whenever we get around an eight point lead.

I’m still waiting for Sasser to break out of his shooting slump, but I like that he’s not just letting it fly from 3 anymore. He’s working in that floater and even hit a free throw J against Syracuse. Seems like the Beavers defend the 3 ball pretty well and have some size inside, so this might be the game for Sasser, Grimes, Mark and Jarreau to go off from the mid range.
