Largely because they went a combined 2 of 17 from distance. They did shoot 22 free throws and made 19 of them in the end, though, which was entirely a product of our PnR defense.
Sure sounds like we would have won the game if we didn’t force feed McCormack repeatedly and actually tried something else on offense doesn’t it? [Reply]

All of this, we were killing them at the end of the 1st half. They made that damn 3 at the end of the half and I mentioned that it was a BIG 3 for them.
Plus Mac had an open, uncontested 2 hand dunk underneath in the 2nd half ..... freaking muffed it up, lost it as he was slamming it home and clanked off the back of the rim! 2 pts, 2 frigging points that would have won the game when regulation was over.
Make the bunny, enjoy the honey, gave over! [Reply]
Baylor is going to torch us. They got their scare game off their back. I have no doubt they will be ready to play. If we can figure out a way to beat Baylor then all is great again, but we have very little chance. [Reply]
