You know things are going our way when Bal makes a 3.

Let's see if we can keep this defensive effort up for another 20 minutes. This team seems fragile to me. Looks like they are waiting for the hammer to drop at times. Hopefully they can win this one handily. Glad Anderson got some run and Bal too.

Same. They look really dark on TV, not standard Navy Blue.
Yeah that's my biggest problem. It looks like we borrowed another school's uniforms.
I don’t give a damn about uniforms!!!

We’ve dominated the entire game. First time since maybe the early non-conference games.

The audio in this game is precious. There's a chick's voice who is 2 for 2 for prompting the ref to call us for fouls.

Zu leads the league in scoring. Comes in last in words per game. But that chick is back at work.

I said the same thing. You can move as in a slide, but you can't roll over to avoid a defender.

Kerr careless. Tries to make the spectacular play instead of the sound one. Larrson was again a no show. Zu is just a great basketball player. Not very athletic but just nails at times.

Great defensive intensity in the first half when the shots were falling. Struggled to shoot from the outside, and we let the Beavers back in the game. Gave up 48 points in the 2nd half!

Need to find a way to keep up defensive intensity for a full 40 minutes. Don't worry if the shots on your end are falling or not. Shouldn't make a difference on how you play D.

One thing (among many) that Zu excels at is keeping his hands up when he has the ball. About the best I have seen for the UA, especially with his lack of athleticism. You see so many players who lack spring bring the ball down to try and get some momentum to go up, bringing the ball down to the smaller opposing players.

Agreed - but 2 or 3 of his TO's occurred late in the second half when we should have been icing the game and not giving OSU any hope.
That's what bothered me.
