Defeating quality opponents has been a theme for Josh Pastner’s squad this season. Defeating a solid team such as TCU would be the ultimate topper to a quality year and a great next step for the program.

Josh Okogie has been a monster for the Yellow Jackets in the NIT thus far. His ability to score the ball has allowed the floor to open up a bit and his teammates have fallen in line. If they’re going to defeat TCU, he will have to once again be the key contributor on offense.

On the other end of the floor, this is a spot Jamie Dixon likes to thrive in. The veteran head coach has seen just about everything in his time as a coach in college basketball and it’s going to be a great chess match between two great basketball minds.
