This floor is an eyesore.
I might have to watch The Egg Bowl instead

Let’s fucking go! Got it down to only 8 and they’ve dominated so far. We can pull this out if we get our shit together! This is basically a home game for UCONN…

They’re letting UCONN be way more physical on defense than the Illini…

Our lack of man-to-man defense ability is getting exploited by UCONN.

And I can’t stand Dan Hurley. The guy is so unlikable it makes me sick watching his antics on the sideline…

43-32 at halftime. Need to step up and play lights out in the 2nd half or this one is gonna get ugly…

All in All, lucky to be where we are 43-32

Less Mirkovic 3's, more Petrovic PG, Boswell plays just as hard/good in the 2nd half, and make Ball make some more 3's.

Play some zone more often back and forth to mix up the rhythm that Uconn likes to get into and we should still be fine overall. UCONN came out on fire and cooled and then got hot again....we play better 2nd halves than 1st usually. Big Z is playing well on D for us, really liked what Lee was doing on Ball also.

Rebound, rebound, rebound.

89-83 UCONN wins however. 13 vs 5 that is still a good showing.

Boswell with 13 and 6 and Mirkovic with 6 and 6. Everybody else with the other 13 points and 7 rebounds.

Personal Fouls are even at the half?????? 3's are literally the only difference in this game. They made a few more, we shot less (thank goodness) and that is the half.

BU needs to find the Mirkovic lane and keep that guy in it for now....he has an immense overall skill set, however gets into look at me now shootin 3's too often. Use your weight/size/IQ mid to low post, that will open up way more 3's later on.
