1. Continued Great Bench Performances from both Aubrey Griffin and Caroline Ducharme
2. Dorka Juhasz "Taking It" to her old teammates (and then giving them all hugs after the game, renewing old friendships)
3. Azzi Fudd continuing the production that she exhibited in the 2nd Half of the Baylor Game.
 
1. Come out and play from the tip.
2. Work more inside out on offense to set up more space on the 3
3. More Caroline and Azzi on the floor at the same time

They are all playing good team BB right now. AE has been super and Azzi is heating up. Should be a great finish.
 
1. Dominate inside and on the boards.

Ohio State is an undersized team that is fundamentally sound with decent three point shooters. We should be familiar with that since it describes most of the Big East.

2. Avoid the silly fouls and foul trouble.

3. Get Azzi going early, no letting the game come to her, take it over like she did in the third quarter, just right from the start this time.
 
1. Just win HUSKIES!
2. Everybody Eats.
3. Azzi and Caroline continue on their upward trajectories.
Dorka, Aaliyah, Lou Lopez, and Nika do their thing.
3. a Aubrey comes out of the phone booth again in her
red white and blue suit with that Supergirl Cape
Go Huskies!
 
Same thing as vs Baylor

No injuries
Take care of the basketball
Strong defense inside & outside
 
1. Assist to turnover ratio of 1.6 or better
2. No stupid fouls
3. My fellow BYers at the game as I am going!!!!
 
Ohio St will probably employ their full court press a good portion of the game.
It's how they generate offense.
If the Huskies can hold down the number of turnovers and attack the press, they'll be OK.
1. Low number of turnovers (<15)
2. Attack the basket when the press is
broken for high percentage shots.
3. Won't be needed if they can
accomplish the first two. (But stay
healthy anyway)
 
1- Guard the 3 pt shooters closely in the first quarter so our anxiety doesn't lead to a heart attack.
2- Azzi with a good start from the beginning.
3- Establish paint presence from the start with Aaliyah and Dorka.

I will also be at the game in Section 14, Row G along with my son and my two granddaughters. These will be my third and fourth Huskies games in person - previously at California 12/22/2018 and at Oregon 02/03/2020.

i would like very much to meet up with other Boneyarders before the game and/or at halftime. Any suggestions?

Stealing my thunder? I'm very superstitious.
 
Here are my thoughts after watching the OSU game against Duke.

1. Control the boards. We have a big height advantage relative to their starters who are 6’ or less in height.
2. They like to press so we need to focus on containing turnovers and controlling the pace of the game.
3. They move the ball around the arc and like to curl in to score. We need to switch on defense and limit outside shots from Mikesell and assists from Sheldon.

If we maintain intensity for four quarters, score 80 points or more, and defend well, we should make it to the elite eight.
 
1) Breaking their press with ease. Thus demoralization of their amped MO and mojo.
2) AE and Dorka along with Aubry owning the boards.
3) Azzi and Lou both dialing in their bottom of he net focus. :)
 
1. Caroline, Lou and Azzi all >40% shooting 3 pointers,
2. Tenacious D.
3. There's an old saying in basketball that says pressing teams don't like to be pressed, and I'd like to see the Huskies test that out.
 
Composure, good spacing, and smart ball movement to beat the press.
Their usual tough defense.
As always, 50/40/80 shooting.

the rest should take care of itself.
