Sheppard, for him, missed that first free throw as it wasn't nothing but net. He slightly over-corrected on the 2nd. Even the best free throw shooters miss from time to time.
You got to love it when Cal calls a play. You know it is going to be for one of his 5-star players. Most of the time, it doesn't work.
Good win. Wasn't our best effort but feel like team is going through some transition with Bradshaw joining roster.
Yeah. This game tells me we are reverting back to the norm.
Very few players at any level can do what Rob just did. CRAZY move there.
Cats with a much much better finish to the game than the half.

Promising game from Bradshaw. Team a little sloppy passing, but solid showing after the loss imo
Glad we put em away but my lord the defense is still awful. If we don't shoot well every game we're in trouble..
We will take the dub. Not sure we answered any questions other than Bradshaw is a man.
A week to prep for the real UNC is good . We will need it.

LOL......UConn was only up by 1 in the first. Now destroying that scrub. I can't take seeing another BS UConn title.
Put Hurley on the short list now.

We looked different for sure but scored 80. Should've had a few more. Our lack of defense leads to points for the opponent. Lock that down and we will be fine.
The 94 is including an OT win over st Joe's and the outlier of 118 against Marshall too.
We score 80 plus a game that's gonna win most games.
Rebounding was a big stat with all the putbacks. 16-6 on second chance points
At that point in the game with the 3 point shooters Penn had, any smart team will be playing "stall ball," right? Is the goal at that point to entertain or to win?
You're up 10-12-14 points in the last 3 minutes of the game. Your advantage is less possessions, not more. Not many coaches, if any, are going to go LMU on the opponents ass. You're gonna make the other team defend you and hopefully get to the line.
