They say teams that press don’t like to be pressed themselves.
We’ll see if that’s true for both West Virginia and Stephen F. Austin on Friday night.
Both wont to play aggressive, relentless pressure defense, the Mountaineers and Lumberjacks force a larger percentage of opponent turnovers than anyone else in the country. They both create a ton of steals, and both make things very uncomfortable for opposing teams.
It may be a 3 vs. 14 matchup, but the similarity in styles makes this one of the most compelling first-round games of the NCAA tournament.
