Currently playing a great game against Michigan State. If they could hit a free throw they would be winning. Im feeling a little bit nervous after watching this game. Michigan State is vastly overrated this year, but Oakland is looking good. Their guard Larry Wright is shooting lights out from the 3 pt line and I feel like Keith Benson could give us some trouble. He's 6'11 an NBA prospect and right now has 17 points 11 rebounds and 4 blocks. I'm really hoping this doesn't turn into a trap game for us if we beat Pitt.

Oakland is very good. I saw them in person a few weeks ago at Ohio. They are super tough inside with two 7 footers and Benson. They get after the boards and their guards are solid and can score when needed.
Although Benson isn't as tough as their other posts. He's very good, but also fairly easy to push around. We got him into foul trouble by pushing him around and boxing out. He is a great shot blocker though. He can also hit the 15 footer.

Yeah Oaklands like 15 min down the road from me so I saw them play a lot in high school and catch some games when I'm home. Benson went to one of my rival High Schools so I've seen him play for a while now. He's a helluva player and Wright is too. Hamilton went off in the end of the game with some crazy 3 pt shots.
