This is my take and some of you Tail pipe sunshine pumpers are going to shoot me down but Herb and Shack stunk it up today on the offensive side. They have both been hekyl and Jekly all season long on the offensive side.

Nate needs to spend time finding FT shooters. We make 60% of our FT's tonight and it never goes to OT.

and the way Primo played little in the second half will probably give him pause to consider going the portal route.

I don’t want to be mad at herb. His career overshadows this game. But man it’s hard to not be mad right now

And you’re an idiot. Don’t be mad though. Right?

Don't think there is much argument to be made otherwise

I didn’t understand why Primo was absent most of the game.

Quite frankly our offense was baffling.

Occasionally you do see a team send it to overtime at the buzzer then have a big emotional letdown in OT.

Fact is, to win in March you need really good guard play. We didn't even approach average guard play tonight.

Agreed, especially when Ellis went out.

Sort of a crushing loss, since even a halfway decent shooting performance (from the line and from 3) would have put us in the Elite Eight.

I would be less disappointed with it if I agreed with all the “they were the better team” stuff. If we just don’t have an atrocious offensive performance we win in regulation.

Great season, but feels like a pretty glaring missed opportunity.

Te ending sucks, but the program is headed in a great direction. I had an awesome time watching this team this year. Roll Tide!

They dictated the game.

We just kind of obliged.

How could anyone disagree? Shack had more turnovers than points it seemed like.

We never went on a big run in the second half after tying it up. That cost us. Didn't think we really even played to our offense (credit to Cronin's defense). Hardly any kick outs for 3s; too many helpless drives to the rim; and too many blow bys on defense.

Great run by the seniors. They deserved this for their hard work.

It’s kind of impressive to lose by 13 on OT to a team with no depth who has their best player fouled out.



They got most of the at the FT line once the game was out of reach.


Helluva season and a lot to be excited bout for the future.

Love the forced drives into the paint after it was painfully clear that we sucked from the line

Same. UCLA is an average team that has made about 30 shots no one has any business making over the course of 4 games.
