RPI just improved! Thank you OSU. IMO that win over OSU is going to pay some nice dividends heading into March.
They are as quick as any team I can recall with their first step toward the basket. Pretty good shooting as well.
OSU's physical, tough defense beat Duke in the 2nd half. But UF overcame that physical, tough defense with even better defense.
OSU suffered in the first half against Duke by missing open shots and free throws. Same as we did in our first half against them. Once we got a little bit more on target, we started to cut into the lead.
We have a good team. OSU presented a different kind of challenge for our guys and I think it helps us against OU. I think our guards match up well against the Okies. I expect and hope our pressure gets to them. Need help from the refs to play our game. Away games that far from home are tough. We'll see how our guys respond to that. Hopefully , their students will be protesting Riley's departure instead of coming to the basketball game.
very important point you made. the same aggressiveness that is allowed to slide at home or neutral site, alot of times is not allowed on the road. excited to see us take on the challenge all year.
