    Well if we can beat Texas it will mean we beat #1 and #2 seed in our bracket to get there.

    This should be a great game as well.

    I am not that familiar with Texas BB but it didnt look like they have anyone that can handle Big Baby on the defensive side.

    Anybody know what time the game will be Saturday?

    They've got 3 quality PF's in Lamarcus Aldridge, PJ Tucker, and Buckman. Tucker is the Big XII POY and Lamarcus Aldridge is just about the consensus #1 pick in the draft. He's a rich man's Tyrus Thomas. Buckman is a solid senior.

    LSU will have their hands full down low.

    True, but from what I've seen, he doesn't seem very athletic, which will essentially make him a non-factor. Aldridge worries me, though.

    The guys in Vegas will be scratching their heads over this one.

    they are big and very talented but once again they arent that deep....get a few of those big guys in foul trouble like tuck and aldridge then we got em...but man can tucker play...he reminds me of a more athletic version of charles barkley.

    Yeah from the limited no. of times I've seen UT, they seem to match up better with us than Duke. Of course, WVU played them down to the wire twice this year, and we beat WVU (early in the season, at that)...so who knows?

    We definitely match up favorably with you guys. WVU plays like the Phoenix Suns. The launch 3's we'll have a better time with a team that doesn't press or use any traps. LSU plays man and that's where we get most of our Offense from. I see LSU as similar to A&M. Maybe a little better.
