Message: [QUOTE="MSUFan2003, post: 3049057, member: 9409"] I think it could go either way. One thing to consider is that Vic pulled the players out of a full court press and played a matchup zone. I bet that threw South Carolina off, but they'll prepare differently this time. I know Vic loves to press, but this team has struggled mightily with pressing good teams. As far as the Mizzou game, I think we lost that mainly because we played a trash offensive game. Pretty much every team tries to pack the paint against us. That's not a new strategy, but most teams can't pull it off. The other strategy is to pull McCowan out of the paint. I do think Mizzou could have exposed how that works when you have 5 players who can shoot the 3. To me, that seems more difficult to defend for a true post player. [/QUOTE]
