More than the altitude (which worries me as well as it negates some of our speed and pace advantages) the biggest risk I see for SHU tonight is how the officials call the game.
If they blow the whistle too fast, we could be in trouble. Will hurt both our defensive intensity as well as our ability t counter Gonzaga's advantages in height and offensive finesse. I also worry about the effect it could have in destabilizing a young team playing in the NCAA for the first time.
If they let the kids play, think or speed, athleticism and defensive prowess will carry the day.
