Here is my analysis of the games this weekend.

These two games will be a great test for this young team.

The key to victory in both games is whether we can score more points than our opponents do.  The offense should try to score as often as possible and with regularity.  And by scoring I mean 'scoring the basketball.' Scoring with other inflated spheres will not help our cause at all.

The defense needs to impede the opposition's access to the basket at which they will be trying to score.  Standing in their way and waving our hands will help a lot.  I hope the team remembers to do this when they are playing defense.  Picking up a loose ball on the floor before the other team gets it will also be advantageous for us.  We can give up some points and that will be alright as long as we do not give up as many points as we score ourselves.

If we can beat the California Golden Bears (and that should be a stiff test because not only are they bears, they are golden, too), I predict we will play the winner of the other game between the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Texas Longhorns.
