Or maybe half their team will get ejected and/or fouled out and we can play 5 on 3 for ten minutes to secure a win.
Whatever it takes.

1. 17-9 - no explanation needed
2. On the bubble, but not really
3. Oh you need 2 wins in the conference tournament? Lol frick you, here's Kentucky in the second round
4. A graphic at the bottom of the screen explaining that it has been 6:42 since Alabama's last made FG
5. Losing in Rupp by 8 points and congratulating ourselves over the moral victory
6. Losing to one of the 3 worst teams in the conference in late February with an 18-10 record
7. Giving up 13/24 3pt shooting to a team that has made 28% on the season.
8. Making unathletic white forwards from average mid-major programs look like peak Larry Bird
9. Shooting <40% from inside of 2 feet over the course of an entire game
I’m hoping Quinerly/Bruner change this, but...
10. Highly thought of transfers absolutely shitting the bed in our program...

11. Driving inside then throwing the ball back out to no one for a turnover for three consecutive possessions

Taking low percentage jumpers 15 feet from the basket
You left out the fact that they'd be uncontested.
First, if an uncontested 12-15 foot jumper is "low percentage", you don't need to be playing D-1 basketball. Secondly, you only take them IF they're uncontested...if contested, you take it to the hole!
Teams are letting our guards come to the bucket, then smothering them...that doesn't work!

This is true. Stanford bracketed ball handlers on the perimeter, and then collapsed on the basket on drives. They also seemed to know a number of our passing outlets and were prepared for them.

That's not Oats'game. Our people MUST learn to take/hit the pull-up 12-15 ft shot in the paint enough to bring the bigs out to cover it. If we did, we'd also see offensive rebounds/put-backs increase.
Not happening. Oats hates mid range shots because they are lower percentage 2s. 3s and At the rim 2s are what we do

If you only attack the 3-point line and driving lanes, you're easy to defense. Our guys have got to make the other team defense ALL the floor!
A couple of successful pull-up jumpers will stop all that sagging back inside, and we'll see scoring at the rim.

Texas beat UNC 69-67 to win Maui.

Texas wins Maui.
Only because they didn’t have to play us, of course

They should all be awarded trips to Maui for this feat

I am not ready for this game. I predicted an 80-72 win last night but ever since then I’ve felt worse and worse about it the more I think about it

Has anyone seen Clemson play yet? Seems like they are off to a pretty good start.
Beat Mississippi State 53-42
Beat Purdue 81-70
They are currently up by 15 against SC State.

Not the start I was hoping for
Posted on 12/2/20 at 6:10 pm to mistaken4193
Last year I was confident every time we put a 3 up. I’m not this year
