But can we learn how to effectively attack a zone?

I think we'll play much better due to the loss to MN, the blowout loss to OSU and the urgent need to win 1 or 2 more games to earn a spot in the Dance. But can we learn how to effectively attack a zone? We should be a zone-busting team with 4 or 5 guys in the lineup capable of knocking down shots from out to 18 feet or more (Davis is the exception, but can hit 18 footers on in when he's confident). Plus OSU's athleticism and quickness is tough for us to defend in the man to man.
