A good college hoops game tonight can help ease your early week blues. Marcus Smart and 7th ranked Oklahoma State (3-0) host #11 Memphis (1-0) in the Old Spice Classic Tournament. Both teams haven't come close to being tested so far this season and this game could go a long way in determining how good either team actually is. A four-guard backcourt headlines Memphis' strength and Oklahoma State is led by probable lottery pick, point guard Marcus Smart. There's no real point in going into stats since both teams have basically played CYO teams so far and cruised.
My Pick
I like Oklahoma State at home in a high-scoring game. Both teams have great guard play and it should be an exciting contest to watch. I think it will come down to who turns the ball over less as both teams have a tendency to get out of control on offense. In the end, Marcus Smart will make some big time plays in the final minutes to earn his Cowboys a nice non-conference win. Oklahoma State 78 Memphis 74
