Call me crazy, but I think the Dawgs win 2 or 3 games this SEC Tourney. Doesn't mean we go to the post-season, of course, but if we win the first one and somehow get by Florida, we would have a great shot to get to the SEC Tournament championship.
Before I get too far ahead of myself, let me focus on today's game.
We start against LSU today at 1:00. We match up pretty well with them, winning by 9 points over the Tigers back on January 19.
The key today is that we have to hold down Johnny O'Bryant. He had 16 points on 5 of 8 shooting and 14 rebounds against us. Just a powerful guy in the paint. 6' 9", 262 lbs. Donte Williams held his own last time out, almost matching O'Bryant's point production with 14 of his own.
Kentavious was a 50 percent shooter, going 7 of 14 from the floor against LSU. He always gives maximum effort, but he has started to wear down some, in my opinion, as the year has come to a close. He was clicking on all cylinders middle of the season, but he went 27 for 80, right at 33 percent, the last 5 games. Hope he is rested and ready to go today.
I think our guys step up. We keep their short point guard Andre Stringer out of the paint, limit their second chance points, no easy baskets by O'Bryant, and our guys do enough to help KCP. Dawgs by 8 today.
