Fantastic start to the Pac 12 season. I think right now, we're playing the 2nd best ball in the Pac12.
That said, Saturday is going to be tough. Corvallis has not been kind to us historically and coming off the track meet last night, our thin team is going to be tired. Our five starters all played 32+ minutes, Wallace played every minute of the game and Mathews and Cobbs nearly that much. We saw Cobbs cramp up as well.
Further, the Beavers match up well with us as they really shoot the three ball well and they have enough size to keep us honest in the paint.
I think we'll see them play zone and force us to make threes. Powers may play a key role tomorrow as well as our bench who likely will be needed to play more minutes than they did on Thursday.
