big L from sampson that game. really reminded me of us vs iowa in the tournament last year.

They were playing not to lose instead of to win, they were trying to drain the clock and it was the best thing they could have done for us, they had so many opportunities to get an easy bucket early before our defense was set. And draining the clock means we are aloud to get our defense set and when that happens we are very good.
