What it means for the future (Analysis):
What a tussle, huh? Every time the Zags come to the Leavey Center, its a dogfight. Coach Keating does a masterful job of preparing his team mentally to be ready for a defensive battle. In the end the Zags emerged victorious, from being down by 14 to winning by 7, a 21 point swing. Great effort by the Zags for not throwing in the towel and letting their frustrations get the best of them. Mark Few did a great job as well keeping his bigs out of foul trouble and allowing Steven Gray and Matt Bouldin to get some rest from the constant badgering of the Bronco defenders. This game will definitely go a long way towards preparing the zags for the Memphis defensive attack. LETS GO ZAGS!
