Really looking forward to seeing if he can have a big game against a big opponent. I assume that Myles will see a lot of Watkins tonight. Will be a great test for him. Myles looks much quicker but needs to stay out of foul trouble if he tries to bully him.

Worry about Watkins on the offensive glass.

Worry about Myles getting fouls on help from penetrators OR a random moving pick. PSU is not going to be looking to get the ball to Watking on the low blocks with Myles in the game. That would be silly.

I think it would be wise to go after Watkins with Myles. Myles is bigger. Get Watkins in foul trouble and we'll dominate the glass against a smaller team.

This is what I'm worried about. "Could go either way" judgement call fouls (or phantom fouls) on moving picks, box outs, or over the back - he's gotten hit with a few of those this season that were very tough calls and sent him to the bench for long stretches.

I'd be more worried about Myles on the offensive glass if I'm PSU

Can we pleaseeee give Myles some more touches in the post? He's scoring on rebounds and dunks but he has some post moves and is a good passer. I'd like to see us go to Myles and have his length and quickness cause Watkins to get into early foul trouble

Let's hope for the RAC to be rocking and get some home cooking from the refs for once... Speaking of refs do we know who has the game yet?

Could be worth Pike getting T’d up, if the refs go ticky tack on Myles. The crowd will lose their sh*t if Pike let’s the refs have it.

Hoping Jay Bilas' article isn't in the back of their minds going into this game either - he called out ncaa officiating for allowing too much contact impeding player movement as opposed to recent years. Last thing we need is a couple refs taking that to heart and suddenly changing the way the game has been called to ding us with ticky tack stuff at the top of the key.
