NCAA record for 3s?



Not sure they are 15 for 32 right now, though.

Shooters who also drive and pass and play great defense.

They're clearly the favorite at this point IMHO. If we'd played well in the 2nd half we could have stayed within 10-15 maybe, but Nova took up to a level we couldn't compete with.

Great team.

I think the first 2 minutes of the 2nd half did it.

No. We'd just be down by 3 less. We have been chasing them around the entire second half, which we didn't have to do as much in the first half. That's their offense. Chase the guards long enough and someone gets open from 3. If we had been having to do it the whole game we'd be down 50.

I honestly felt that we were a bit unlucky in the 1st half and thought we played with great intensity.


Then 2nd half happened. One team made adjustments. We never came out.

Def could be. Basketball is a huge game of runs. Without that 3 we may come out playing better in the 2nd half

I don't think so. The better team has just taken over the game.

We'll need to improve in our half court offense to compete at this level.

This team was supposed to make the dance based on pre season talk. So did this team meet, exceed, or failed based on expectations. I am of the opinion we met expectations

We are trying to break the record for 3s given up in a three game span.

Took a strange path to get there, but they basically met it IMHO

We just don’t shoot well enough to play at a high high level. Profound insight obviously.

We could run better stuff too, but in the end we have too many guys that are so bad at shooting that they hesitate to even take open 3’s.
