I don't understand how Georgia is favored in this game. We may be more talented, but we have noone on our roster that can defend a 7-footer. Our center, Thomas, is out for at least three more games. That leaves the tallest player at 6'8" (I think) for the Dawgs.
Does anyone have any knowledge of the rest of CUs team? Harrison will be a serious match-up problem for us, but if we are able to get him into foul trouble with our more athletic semi-big men--do they have any firepower to hold off our speed?
This game will come down to the speed of Georgia versus the size of Colorado. If Colorado plays zone (which I don't know if they do), then UGA should be able to run the show from the outside. Pelle at 6-8 is their leading rebouder, so he will probably be matched up against Jarvis Hayes. I have not seen Pelle play, but he willhave his hands full if they play man to man. Jarvis works insie outside game as good as anyone in the country.
After working through this write-up--I guess I see this game as a pass. The 7-footer definitely worries me on CUs side, but Georgia's athletic ability may be able to pull them out.
I would like to hear from someone who knows CUs team.
Good luck.
