Oregon State is a very methodical team. They pace themselves on both ends of the court and try to set the tempo. They have been run over by quicker teams, but usually tend to put up a fight.

They have the best defense in the Pac-12, so their main objective will be to disrupt the Bruins’offense, which is not very hard. Lately, UCLA has been overly dependent on outside shooting, and as we saw against Colorado, if the shots don’t fall, UCLA will.

One way to counter this is to try and establish a presence in the paint. Welsh, Gyorgy Goloman and Alex Olesinski need to grab rebounds and try to go inside-out and vice versa. They also need to play smart on defense under the rim and stay out of foul trouble because OSU’s Tinkle and Eubanks can score and will try to impose their will.

The Bruins need to clog the middle and box out to force the Beavers into an outside shooting game. Hopefully this leads to transitions points which will wear down a team like OSU. Still, it should be a very close game, one that could possibly be decided in overtime.
