The Zags shoveled themselves out from under two feet of snow and a lousy last game to completely thunder Texas Southern in their first return to the Kennel in over a month. Texas Southern looked like the Washington Generals to the Zags Globetrotters. It was a 'kick the dog' performance from the Zags, and man did it feel good to double-up a team (84-42), even if it was just Texas Southern.
The Bulldogs are going to have to step up their game if they are going to upset #2 UCONN. The Zags have had the Huskies number in the past, but this UCONN team is their best in years. Heytvelt is going to have hands full with Thabeet, but again, if he plays like he did against Hansbrough, he can definitely get the better of this match up. The Zags are going to need HUGE performances from their role players. Micah is going to have to play lock down defense and find a way to score in double digits. Bouldin is going to have to find easy buckets for himself and create opportunities for Austin and Steven Gray. Jeremy has to redeem himself and not commit stupid mistakes. Austin needs to take this game over, Morrison-style.
The X-factor in this game is going to be the crowd. Look for this to be a tight game down the stretch with the crowd cheering the Zags to victory. The Zags really need the crowd to get fired up.
Go Zags.

That bell ringer video is soooo funny, that guy looks like Ammo. Zags will also have to lock down AJ Price, who is really the only true 3 point threat for UCONN. Crowd has to be crazy tomorrow.
Who ever said Christian rock was lame? That Jesus is my friend reminded me of Bob Marely "Forever Loving Jah," except really really crappy. Makes one proud to be white.
