It will be interesting to see if Matta slows the game down just a little. I know that is not our style and he says that we have played similar teams like UNC, the Vols, and MSU. I really think that the only team we have faced a continuously grows up and down the floor like UMass is UNC. If we really tried to keep pace with UMass, I think our bench players will get some significant playing time and they will have to come through.

I just hope that if we do get up on them Thad will not back off like he did against Mississippi. We have to keep our intensity up for the full 40 minutes and our zone will have to be very active especially on the wings.

With that said, Go Buckeyes!

As long as we run, but get good looks we will be fine...UMass gives up lots of easy buckets only to take the ball out of the hoop and run it right back at ya...

If we are going to fast and turning the ball over, or taking illadvised shots then there will be problems, but we can run, but just stay under control...
