when mick stalled us out tonight, our defense seemed to back off too. the energy was just zapped.
Yeah I agree completely. We weren't UC last night. At least not this UC. We were old coin-flip UC. We knew they could score and we'd have to get 70 to win. But we did nothing to play like we were trying to get 70.

UC reverted to Caupain Ball last night, especially in 2nd half. Never screamed so much "why are we walking the ball up" at a TV before. LOL!

It started when we got up 13 like somehow we could just not score anymore and win. It’s like mick thought there were 10 minutes left, not 30.

Couple tough whistles, couple empty possessions and now all of the sudden they are right back in it. They have too much firepower to win like that against them. You can do it to most of the teams in our league. But not Houston and not Wichita State. And not the teams we will see in the 2nd round and beyond. And maybe even the 1st round if we end up with a 4/5 seed.

The team we saw last night is not the team that worked its way up to #3 in KenPom. It's the team that hovers in the 20-30 range. We have to get back to being us. We have to dictate how this game goes. We need to suffocate them.

Reaves is their JP macura. A hustle player who isn’t afraid of the big moment.

Although he’s is much classier player then jp

He's the disease-free version.
