Coming off an overtime victory against VCU, the Ohio State Buckeyes' (10) road is getting much tougher against the Arizona Wildcats (2).

Despite being widely favored to make the NCAA Tournament Final Four, Arizona coach Sean Miller knows he has a tall order in facing Ohio State. Coaching opposite Miller will be someone who knows him and his team well.

According to the Associated Press, Miller and Ohio State coach Thad Matta are former colleagues and currently maintain a close friendship. Though Miller's Wildcats will be heavily favored Saturday evening, it is Matta that holds a 2-0 edge against his friend.

"It's hard to play someone that you care a lot about," Miller said in a press conference.

On the court, the matchup to watch will be that of standout freshmen. Ohio State guard D'Angelo Russell is coming off a 28-point performance against VCU while Arizona forward Stanley Johnson dropped 22 against Texas Southern.

Like Johnson, the rest of Arizona's starting five are tall, a clear edge over an Ohio State team that could not outrebound VCU. Arizona will likely use their size to try and force Russell and Ohio State's scorers to settle for jump shots. If Ohio State does attack the rim, they will likely be in for some contact.

Still, Ohio State's offense will test Arizona's defense after they gave up 72 points to the 15th-ranked Texas Southern.
