Size Advantage

[Recoil]

I know we have to beat Michigan first, but if we can pull that off, we're looking at some interesting match ups. Here's my thinking heading into this awesome weekend of CBB

Our best draw:

16: Michigan
8: Louisville
4: Wisconsin
NCG: Florida

Our worst draw would be:

16: Michigan
8: Kentucky
4: Arizona
NCG:Michigan State

Payne (Mich St) vs Stokes would be a great matchup

Louisville is a nightmare matchup for us imo. Their full-court pressure would give us fits.

We handled Florida's pretty well. Granted, Louisville's is a step above. That would be an interesting match up for sure. I like it better than Kentucky. Those "kiddie" cats are playing well.

That's weird because most analysts are saying as long as UT gets past michigan, they have a good matchup against either Louisville or Kentucky. Most of them are saying if we get to the elite 8, we would be the favourites to get to the final four.

Or it ain't the size of the boat but the motion in the ocean!lol::birgits_giggle::rofl::lol:

Harrel could hold his own against Stokes, I would rather not play Louisville, but I'm not gonna complain if we are playing in the elite 8.

Is TWSS to you?

Agreed. Harrell would be a tough match.

I'm looking forward to he and Randall going at it.

I think she said "hog" not "dog"

The problem that Stokes has been giving opposing "bigs' lately isn't just his size, it's his mobility and speed for his size. With the way we have been hitting 10-15 footers lately, doubling down on him isn't working for defenses either. IMO we have a VERY good shot of beating Meeeeechigan.

No we didn't.. If we handled Florida's pressure better we would have won one of the three games we played.

Should have clarified. We handled it well in the SECT.

Clearly this isn't the same UT team we all hated 6 weeks ago. Sorry for the lack of distinction.

Maymon better be on his rebounding game then because Payne would take Stokes outside on the offensive end. I actually think Payne might match up better with Dawson, who does his work mostly around the rim.

Hey no issues from me! Just discussing here
