Don't miss it. I think this is the furthest Oregon State has ever made it in the p12 tourney. Usually they are 1 or 2 and done, and always begin their run on Wednesday, never good enough to get a first-round bye.
Altman is the winningest coach in the tourney--thought I saw somewhere that he's never lost a game on Friday in the tourney.... But going against your arch-rival, anything can happen!!
Looking forward to Colorado vs USC, too--should be a great game! Best case scenario for the p12 (unless you are a Buff or Beav fan) is for Oregon and USC to meet in the championship game, with the winner getting a 4 or 5 seed. Both are 6 seeds as of today per Lunardi.
Funny that it could come down to Oregon and USC battling it out again.....
Call me Debbie Downer, but more likely a Duck vs. Buff clash. Enfield is 0-6 vs Boyle. He just has his number, pushes all the right buttons. Happens. And then throw in a double OT game the day before.
CAE will need to do something completely different if he wants to win, imo. A completely different look, lineup or something. Something to catch the buffs off guard, because Boyle clearly prepares well for CAE.
Little-known fact is that as good as Altman is, he's NEVER won a game in Boulder. As in ever....in 11 seasons. Sorta crazy. Ernie Kent had the same issue with Mike Montgomery at Stanford (and later at Cal). I think he won maybe 1 or 2 games ever vs Mike in the Bay Area....over 14 seasons! Funny....
