...is under investigation for blah blah blah. LOL
I guess I would look to three or four things as potential keys to today's game:
1. How we start. If we are down early, as we have been apt to do a lot this year, the question is how can we find our way back? Syracuse is defensively stingy and are very good at making teams work the full 35 of a clock. The game is going to be most likely in the 60's. Which means, if the Griz perform near their season standards for efficiency offensively (30th) they have a good chance. Syracuse has a very good ability to make teams take predicitable perimeter jump shots.
2. Getting inside Syracuse's zone, does Cherry and Jamar get to the rim? If there are shots going in from 3 early, can it stretch the zone to get inside it. I doubt after watching Syracuse a few times this year, they would leave it but rather stretch it. Weisner, Gregory and jamar are important early in that regard. I doubt Cherry and Jamar are going to be able to impose their will as they have been at times this year and get to the hoop.
3. Where Syracuse is making their shots at. They are in some cases a bit of a Weber State team but with superior athletic skills. They have a slew of guys who can get to and finish at the rim. If the UofM can force perimeter jump shots, which Syracuse seemed to do a lot in their mid season slump, they aren't the worst but they are the best shooting team on the planet. The Griz aren't the best defenisve team on the planet and to that extent worries me a bit. Will the Griz zone? A possibility.
In the end, probably gonna take a great effort from the Griz to win. Syracuse is stout. Gonna get a great effort from the guys as we know Tinks will have em ready. Hoping for a Griz 20 point win (not likely). More likely a tight 5-6 point game, where we won't have a clear winner until inside the 3 minute timeout. That would be ideal. I think the margin is a bit steep (14 pointish), and I think it is well within the Griz's ability to play within the spread.

I'll be missing at telecast the first half. A close friends mother passed away Monday and at the wake this afternoon he told me that tonight after the late viewing they are having a bit of an Irish wake at the house. Bas k netball is basketball, but he is family to me.
I can't wish you luck, but I will say that no matter who wins I hope every player is healthy at the end. And if you do pull the upset you damn well better win a few more games! :lol:
