What a ************* game!!!!!!!

...until Uconn wins. 76-72 right now. they keep getting witin 1 point....57-56.....again at 73-72.....they can't seem to get over that hump. all they gotta do is get that first lead...

 

[USNavyDog]

Nunge is a pain, can't this guy foul out or miss a late shot? 80-77...come on Huskies you got this...

Too large a deficit to overcome! Awful start, gritty comeback that falls short. The return of the dreaded 1-3-1? Was hoping that was retired. This could be a bubble team given how we can’t beat the top BE teams / even at HOME. So much for stacking wins. Now we have to worry about another losing streak.

Sean Miller, in his first year at Xavier sweeps UConn. Maybe in year 6 we will turn the corner.

I'm saying this before the game even ends: Credit where it's due. That was a very well-coached second half of basketball by Hurley.

 

[kansashusky]

Didnt even get a shot up lol.

Well coached game results in an L. The definition of the Hurley era.

The 1-3-1 helped us get back into the game. It cause a lot of disruption and turnovers.

Hope Xavier wins the whole thing. They’re good enough.

 

[JMick]

we got outplayed for 75% of the game. outside of two runs we looked totally lost.

 

[Dove]

Now, that was a ride. Hawkins was phenomenal.

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

We lost, but we’re developing a lot of good habits. Xavier is a great team.

We should at least beat the teams we’re suppose to beat moving forward if we continue to play like this.

 

[oshkosh]

unfortunately we’re out of the top 25. I’m ok with that. We can beat these guys in NY

His first half was not excellent. Letting Jackson put us in a 9-point deficit was not a good look for either of them. After that first 5 minutes, I don't have many complaints.

Should've gone to a zone earlier or played Clingan for shotblocking when they were walking to the rim for and-1s.

What a ************* game!!!!!!!

LOL

 

[Kitaman]

I'd rather us to have been blown out.

 

[YoungFree]

Down 17....at home....yep, 3 point loss seems right where we are right now. I feel as if at least 1 wheel has fallen off.

 

[jayp123669]

This team is paper soft...any adversity or any team they have to assert there will on they cant do it....

 

[Bstop55]

Never gonna beat good teams when you play 4 on 5 on offense….

 

[HuskyFich]

The second half is what we should be talking about in this game.

We fought HARD and gave them no easy buckets. Proud we responded well, and we’re a mediocre first half shooting effort away from winning this game.

Boum is gd good.

 

[caw]

On the plus side, I think Hurley might have figured out how to use Jackson when teams sag off him that much. It took 1.5 games against X. Hopefully, he doesn't revert to something stupid.

 

[BleedHuskyBlu]

Looking forward to next season with Castle coming in

 

[Mister P]

Another let down on defense all around.
They did not contest outside shots and Boum was getting wide open looks. Newtown didn’t stay on him a number of times.
