If so, it's imperative Embiid stays out of foul trouble. I can see Gipson/Williams getting physical with him much like Ridley.

That's what I'm expecting. I had to listen to the last game on the radio and they suggested that there may be more to embiids knee than he or the coaches are letting on. Don't know if any of it is true or he's just in a slump but it certainly fits. I'm expecting him to have trouble with Gipson and Williams down there ala Ridley.
It's still amazes me though that they weren't that physical in AFH. They've been physical in other games but didn't seem to even try to be physical in AFH. At least from my perspective. Outside of the first 5 or 6 minutes KSU looked like we did against Texas. Maybe we are just that much better than KSU but I doubt it. I'm thinking this will be a tough game and I won't be surprised if we drop it. Particularly if Embiid doesn't play well.
On the Embiid note KCC is right, if he contributes at all, it changes the game drastically. He did basically nothing in the first half and ended up with a double double and that was basically what we beat them by. We need Embiid in this one.

Not good, need him for when Embiid gets in foul trouble (and he almost always does with road reffing). Lucas has to step up.

I've been a Lucas homer all year, so I think he will fill in but Traylor has been playing some really good ball lately. If he can't go it will be hard to replace that. Black needs to stay out of trouble too.
