I'd be surprised if the Dawgs don't beat the Goob's by 8-12 points...and that the game won't really be as close as the 8-12 point victory will look like on paper...it'll be over with 3 or 4 minutes to play.

Not only can the Huskies outscore the Cougs by a pretty significant margin, but they can out defense them even better...and like BB said above, the Huskies have at least 7 "starter quality" players, with two or three more guys who would be valuable "sixth men" on most other other teams...there's not a lot of drop off when they sub a few guys out for a breather.

More importantly, at the end of the game when fouls are being dealt out the Huskies have still got good players with fouls to give...one dude fouls out from the Coug lineup and they may as well be playing with four...

Fish on...
