Control the Harrison twins, control the game. Controlling the glass would help considerably too.

And control can mean "let them play out of control".

I'm liking our chances a lot right now.

Kentucky did what I hoped they would: They played a lot of minutes. Randle played 35, Young 33, the Harrison boys 37 and 35, and Cauley-Stein 28.

Cauley-Stein's 28 ties FVV for the most minutes any WSU player had. Early with 19, Cotton with 19, Baker with 27. We cruised and come in healthy (assuming Cotton's thigh is fine) and very rested, having a week off and a very easy first game.

Kentucky comes in tired and battered, having played three games last week and a ton of physical minutes tonight.

Will be very interesting to see if Harrison is okay ... his arm didn't look good. I don't like the idea of beating them with a key guy injured.

Unfortunately, this is where the ride ends on one for the record books.

While we are more experienced, execute a better half court offense, more disciplined and fundamentally more sound, there's one thing this team hasn't faced all year, and that is a team who is abnormally tall, long and athletic across the board.

Our backcourt of 5'11, 6,2 and 6,3 players are small compared to Kentucky. We simply have not been exposed to and practiced against tall players who will make us alter our shot to adjust to their height. Those minor adjustments represents only inches, but it will be enough to kill us. Our inside game lacks finesse too. Lufile, Carter and Colbey struggle up close. They're good at slams and easy lay ups but when the time comes for a sweet, smooth inside move and a soft touch on the shot, that is no where to be found.

Our D will keep it close, but our O will struggle. This will be a low scoring affair where Kentucky advances 63 to 51.

I thought you were on a self imposed ban for a year? When WSU wins will you make it 2 years?

[Rlh04d]

KC Shox predicting us to lose practically guarantees a win at this point.
