I will be able to tell you in our first offensive possession whether or not we will win....If we have 5 guys moving AND at least 4 guys crash the offensive glass (even if you don't get the board, you are in position to slow down the Baylor outlet pass), we have a chance. If 3 or 4 guys have their tennis shoes nailed to the floor during the possession, then, 3 guys 'retreat' to the defensive end when the shot goes up, we are dead meat.

Well, there won't be 4 guys crashing the glass. I can tell you that now.

If we start 4 guards and they start their monster front line, it will sure be interesting to watch this matchup. Will their bigs dominate our small lineup, or will their big lineup not be able to keep up with the pace of our small lineup.

I noticed drew has used some Fred plays this year, specifically when the guard passes to the high post who immediately tosses it up to the low post for a dunk similar to how niang would set up MCKay and Hogue etc. With our short lineup, it will be dunk city tonight

I agree. They better be on the run if we start 4 guards

My gut feeling says that their bigs are likely athletic enough to run pretty well and won't be too phased by our somewhat up tempo (not nearly up tempo enough) offense.

If we start 4 guards, we had better just be constantly harassing them and pressing them trying to create turnovers and running opportunities.... and we had better be hitting our 3's.... or we'll get completely blown out.
