I would have to say no because Ohio State has the dominant lineup. Now that Greg Oden finally has someone to post up on it will be pretty bad for Memphis down low. I expect memphis to lose a few players early with foul trouble and then after that it will just get worse.
I would also like to ask how it has been easy for Ohio State thus far, they had to play the best 5 seed by far (compared to USC Va. Tech, and Butler) a team that when they are doing good can absolutly stomp some of the best teams (florida for example) and they did absolutly amazing against Ohio State knocking down 16 3's in the game. If Ohio State can take Tennessee's best shot and keep rolling i dont see what Memphis could throw at them to stop them. If Ohio State were to lose it would be only because they beat themselves.

Being from Memphis, I may be a bit biased, but, I kinda like their chances. With the way the run their offense and the way the defend, this could be a good game. Of course, if the Tigers don't play well, this game is over at halftime. But, then again, the same could be said going the other way too. Memphis' Dorsey is a big boy, i think he can hold his own against Oden, and the perimeter players are pretty well even, although I think Memphis may have more of them. Both teams come into the game with identical win/loss records, the Buckeyes have played a more difficult conference schedule, they both have won over 20 games in a row. Should be a good game, I hope. lol

No, Memphis is lucky to be where they are, they got some good seed pullings to have a relatively easy road to the Elite 8, but it ends here, they really have no way to stop or score over any of the match ups, Ohio State has had a relatively easy road as well, but their easy road isn't over yet, they still have one easy match up left..
I am not an Ohio State fan, and will be pulling for Memphis to upset them, however it is more than unlikely.

the respond to this could be a convincing definite. Ohio State is a huge group fairly while they're working on all cylinders. Greg Oden is probable the ideal middle interior the NCAA and is a lock at first %. next 365 days if he is going the draft. yet Mike Conley Jr. is the spine of this group, he keeps them going and gets them fired up. With shooters like Jamar Butler and Ron Lewis they are in a position to knockdown 3's and with the rebounding ability of Othello Hunter and Greg Oden they are in a position to truly get to the boards. After final nights sport against Tennessee we've considered that OSU is deeper than we concept while David Lightey and Matt Terrwiliger the two got here off the bench and scored some huge buckets and had some extensive rebounds. it is going to nonetheless be a distinctive sport yet OSU will pull it out seventy six-sixty 4
