One thing is for sure, Idaho will overall out-height us in this game.  Their roster indicates one 6-10 player, two 6-9, one 6-8, a 6-7, a 6-6 and 2 6-5's.

Really interested to see how Brice and Fuller match up with their tall guys.

Tonight is a night Thompson might as well have suited up. Everybody is going to foul out....

I noticed that, too.  Height may not be the difference-maker if both teams have to suit up towel boys after everyone fouls out.
