It's a staple of us when we are off. Hate to see it in this game. Maybe we can turn it around.
Just get to half under 10 and let Bruce work his inspirational game and we got this shit
Shooting 23% and still in this. Need a spark and a few threes to fall and it is on.
Got to find an answer for Washington though. Danjel ain’t it and Ho Daddy at the 4 kills our offensive mojo
Huge shot J!!!! Boom. Desperately needed that after Washington hit a 3.
OMG MARLO REFERENCE.
WE GREG'N FAM
WE GREG'N FAM
Jesus H they are giving Washington and Travis every single whistle.
Boys are fighting as expected. Gonna need some luck but we in it.
Well I wanted it cut to FIVE at half, so here we GO!!
i'll take being down by 5 at half...nop way the HYGs shoot as bad in the 2nd Half
Alright. I’ll take down 5 at halftime after that awful start. Legggggoooooo.
It's only a 5 point lead. And a whole half. And you're just warming up from 3. You're in a good spot, considering
Fvck. 5 point swing at the finish there.
Strong finish the last 4 minutes overall though aside from the last sequence. To get to the half down only 5 playing our worst half since they destroyed us at Rupp is a big win.

Early weak ticky tack fouls transitioned to us making stupid fouls. Their bigs got away with some contact early, but then refs started calling it both ways. Scoring-wise we are fine. Foul-wise I’m not sure we can survive another half that tightly called.
Chuma FaceTime at half will have the boogs running through a brick wall and running these Cats out of the gym. Leggggggoooo!
Agreed. Amazing we could have had it tied though if they miss that 3 and Jared can finish that last layup. Giving them the ball back with 5 seconds, we are fortunate they did not get it to a guard who could get the ball up and score again before the half though.
Just let it all hang out here in the second half and let the chips fall where they may. This squad has already cemented its legacy as my favorite boog squad of all time regardless
could’ve been worse - should’ve been better
holding our own on the defensive glass - they’ve got 3 offensive boards but I think 2 are off bullshit free throw bounces... they’ve only gotten 1 of 8 from their misses
we’ve gotten 4 of 18 from our misses... the problem is we missed 19 goddamn shots - a lot of them wide open... once we settled in, we’re getting pretty good looks... not great looks, because they defend us better than anyone else in the country can - but good enough looks we can beat them
3-11 from 3... if we get the same looks this half, add a couple of more missed opportunities when we didn’t drive & kick or swing the ball quickly enough, knock down 8 this half shooting in front of Steven - say 8-14 - and we will win this game
