UTEP now looking like they could win this. Up 7 with under 4 left. 52-45. Another ugly game.

Lotta hero ball on both sides. Boise State down three now with 1 minute left

I want to see Wigginton ball out like Frazier did today.

OMG.. utep

Stepped out of bounds up 3.. lets BSU get an easy layup--- BSU fouled with 9 seconds. UTEP misses 1 and 1... BSU then drives down the lane gets an and 1. Wins 58-56

 

[rholtgraves]

Quite an ending there from Boise to come back and win that one.

Even with how poorly ISU has played I still feel as if they have a legitimate shot to win this tourney.

That would make me very very happy to win this thing

Was anybody brave enough to listen to the announcers one more game and get a scouting report on Tulsa?

I don’t know why, but I kind of agree with you. I would not bet on us, but I think we might have a chance. Not sure how good App State is, obviously neither team was able to stop the other. I doubt our offense is all of a sudden spectacular, but hopefully confidence has been boosted. Wish we would have played smarter down the stretch. Lard did better than I expected for his first game.

They're okay. Couldn't shoot from the outside at all so they'll probably be due for a few more 3's tomorrow especially if we play perimeter defense like we did today. Pretty athletic but if we play offense like we did today we should win by 7-10. Will need Lard and Young to protect the paint and not foul as Tulsa drives to the hoop quite a bit.

Thinking DJ was a pg was a disaster. NWB makes this team go on offense.

I’m surprised at how poor we’ve been on defense. Coach these guys up.

Tulsa is small and quick, pretty good defensively they slowed WMU down early by switching to a zone. Typical Frank Haith team, they wanna play fast. I can see us playing sloppy against them but us having some depth up front could really hurt them.

Thanks
I read they got 40 points in the paint, consistent with your comments.
Dangerous game for Lard. .... young big guys are often foul prone. He will need to play smart.

Went to parts of all 4 games yesterday, we are capable of beating any team in this tournament. Might not do it but we have the ability to. Pro tip walk over to the dining hall a couple of hundred yards away and have a nice meal instead of concession food. Multiple choices pretty good quality all for $6.25.

Looked like we had great representation out there, which I always love to see.

Could only listen yesterday, but those of you in attendance gave a nice "home court" advantage to ISU. Looks like nice weather out there too.

If you missed yesterday but come today or sunday know that you park in a fistant lot and take a free shuttle to the arena. Lots GG or YY I believe. You can download a parking map fro CCU.
