Watch how the game is called. If they allow for the grabs, holds and muggings it could be close. ASU can be a 3 point nightmare but it come and goes so you can be behind and come back.

Likely the last time Robert Matthew Hurley will lead Tempe Normal into McKale...

... let's send him out with a few "runs-of-death"!!!!

BTFD!!!!

McKale has not been a bastion of favorable calls of late. I hope Tommy is on the refs in recognition of that.

CBS is showing the UCONN/St Johns game, and it is running late (of course). I don't know if they will show our game on another channel, but don't expect the game to be on tv at the start.

It’s a national game on CBS… I bet they push back the start

dirtbags · Post by **dirtbags** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 11:56 am

hopefully uconn pulls away and cbs split screens it

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 11:56 am

Can they use CBSsports network?

FreeSpiritCat · Post by **FreeSpiritCat** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 11:57 am

Just picked up YouTube TV and their 2-day trial.

But it is $10 off for the first 3 months so the price is $55/month + tax. They have a lot of options. I know their service is top quality, but they don't get the Pac-12 Network (I hate the leadership of the Pac-12). I am ot able to watch the first few rounds of the Pac-12 tourney.

If that was Kerr it would of been a no call or a flop. This conference hates us for some stupid reason

Larrson clanking 2 FTs can't be a good sign

If Henderson’s 3 went down Hurley was gonna have to call timeout

ASU is shooting 3 pointers better than the UA is shooting free throws.

This is starting to look like an NBA all-star game - pathetic defense

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 12:47 pm

Ced .... leading scorer

dovecanyoncat · Post by **dovecanyoncat** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 12:52 pm

Salim would shoot 50% from the stripe tonight.

AzCatFan2 · Post by **AzCatFan2** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 12:54 pm

Maybe we should shoot our FTs from the 3-point line?
