The Pokes aren’t dead yet.
The Oklahoma State basketball team defeated SEC/Big 12 Challenge opponent South Carolina 74-70 on Saturday afternoon in Gallagher-Iba Arena. The OSU win ended a three-game losing streak and put a halt to the Gamecocks’ 6-1 tear. Here are some thoughts from the Cowboys’ ninth win of the year.
1. Cam-3-1
Cameron McGriff was an absolute terror at the top of Mike Boynton’s 1-3-1 zone.
Usually in zone defenses, coaches have their bigger guys at the back to defend the goal, but McGriff was able to use his size and athleticism to disrupt a lot of South Carolina’s offensive sets.
