OSU is going to drive the lane and draw fouls all day. If Ford is not an idiot, they will do this every possession. K-State refused to quit fouling TCfreakingU in that situation, there's no way Marcus Flop doesn't get a foul called on his defender everytime he attempts the same thing. Gip and JO will each have 2 fouls at the under 12 timeout in the 1st half, and DJamer and Diaz will lead us to a 10+ point deficit by half.
That being said, outside of McGruder, K-State went 2-12 from 3pt range against the Pokes last time. That won't happen again.
No prediction from me, it's a coinflip. We're better than Massey ratings or kenpom indicate, since they factor in the games before the Florida game where we hadn't hit our stride. I'm not even sure we hit our stride then, I think we came around during the 2nd half of the Pokes when Rod finally stepped up. Nervous as hell. I will not be able to enjoy this game even a little bit while it's going on, much like the UT football game this year. Go cats.
