I would hate to play State. Quick, agressive, deep

and playing w/alota confidence. Would not be surprised at all if we get beat in the Sweet 16

Washington went 14 - 4 in a conference that put six teams in the Dance. They are no pushover.

I think we ought to focus on them before dreaming about anything else.

rebounders. Having thought about it...it's pretty simple really. Swat will be able to control their drives as long as he doesn't get into foul trouble. If we can keep the rebounding margin under 10, we should win a hard fought game.

It's up to Coach Stansbury for his team to focus on the next opponent. We're not the ones playing the game. Heck, I can see us going to the Final Four.

Having watched us play UT and LSU, I can not imagine a college team being quicker. Also, not only is UT quick, they are long. If we can handle those guys, I like our chances against any team. When you are just talking athletes vs athletes.

I see UW starts three sub-6ft guys. With the way, Tuner and Johnson can leap, I like our chances of getting off some 3s. Also, I see they give up nearly 70 pts a game. Hopefully, we get some open looks and get hot. Like all basketball games, this one will come down to defense (I see UW puts up alot of points as well), rebounding, and who has the hot hand shooting.

I like this match-up. I don't think their athletes will be anything we have not seen. I like our height advantage to help us get off more 3s than vs UT and LSU. I like the fact they give up alot of points and we have played tenacious defense in the last two games.

UT scores 90+ in the semi's and then we hold them in the 60's. LSU shot their lowest FG % of the season against us and I am willing to bet that UT had not shot any worse than the 29 % they shot against us yesterday.

I really like what this team has been doing the last several games. I didn't think we would last long in the SECT, but the agressiveness and solid defensive play has really carried us. After the close win at Oxford and the close win yesterday, I feel pretty good about our chances, no matter the opponent.

I don't think any of us are suiting up Thursday. Therefore, we can speculate and think about whatever the hell we want.

The team will be focused and ready. Who gives a crap if the fans are?
