The Zags roll into Orlando, Florida today to take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys in the first round of the Old Spice Classic, with tip off (6PM PST--ESPN2) coinciding with my first round of Thanksgiving food sweats.
The Cowboys are 4-0, but like the Bulldogs, they have hardly been challenged. They are athletic and like to play small ball, which could give the Zags an opportunity to showcase their depth at guard. If Heytvelt can stay out of foul trouble, he should be able to dominate the paint. What we don't need is Josh shooting a lot of 3s. Long rebounds lead to a lot of transition buckets for the shorter, quicker Cowboys. Oklahoma State is not just going to roll over, so look for this to be a tough, hard fought battle. If it's anything like their last match up, it'll come down to the buzzer. Nothing like a little nervous energy to help you digest about 4 pounds of food. My advice is to take your acid reflux medicine now.
