GU vs Baylor (NCAA R2) - Predictions/Thoughts/What you do hope to see

[LongIslandZagFan]

Seemed like many had this penciled in as Zags vs Cuse... nope. Do the Zags continue their domination of opponents? Or does Baylor staff hot from 3 and upset the Zags? Who will be Sweet 16 bound?

What are hoping to see? Expecting to see? Thoughts? Predictions?

Have at it boys and girls!

They can’t shoot that well from deep again can they?

I wanted Baylor, but they can't keep hitting threes like that, can they?

Zags - 88
U of Baylor - 71

Baylor is very good at offensive rebounds. #4 in ORB rate and #8 in ORB/gm. Also #4 in denying opponent offensive rebounds. We sometimes struggle against teams that rebound like crazy historically. I'm worried more about their second scoring chances than them going off from 3.

Too true.

We have up 22 off rebs vs Duke, 16 off rebs vs UNC, 14 off rebs vs Tennessee.

UNC scored 30+ pts off 2nd chance pts.

Its been a problem.

Baylor is up there with UNC level rebounding.

Its going to be up to our BIG 3 down low.

I thought Rui did better on the boards tonight yet he is facing serious muscle in Baylor. Their guys are thick, strong, & mean.

Wait a minute. Lets get real. We are fully loaded and have a healthy Tillie hitting on all cylinders. Anything is possible now and we are definitely the Favorite and I say we win by between 15 and 20. Watch out too. Wofford can beat FSU.

- if so I think a victory is a cinch.

At the Baylor presser after the game, Baylor coach said he green lighted them to shoot as many 3's as they wanted but I doubt they can shoot that hot again. Mason is a solid point guard for them and was really at factor at both ends on the floor. If he plays like that again and he is a senior also, he could give Josh some trouble. Their guys are built solid and are athletic
