Minus Bouk, the rest of the team took 18 threes and made 2 (both made by Cole) . Bouk was a respectable 5-12. 7-30 overall. Cole was 2-8, Gaff 0-5, Adams 0-3, Jackson 0-1, Martin 0-1.

Creighton was 7-27. Five Creighton players made threes.

Just something that needs to get fixed if we want a successful season.

Who cares? RJ went 6 for 6 from the line then missed his last two.

Ball game.
He makes those, we win in regulation. No doubt. Today was his first big test. Curious that he didn't play a bit better as I know he has played well against quality teams in the past. I really thought he could be a big play guy. Perhaps he still can.

Gaff makes 1 or anyone else other than Bouk makes a triple and we win in regulation. They missed a bunch of open 3's, something Polley could of assisted with. Tough loss but encouraged by their play.

Creighton shot 60% from foul line and 27% from 3 - they stunk by their standards. We were in position to win and we blew it. need to find a way to finish it
We did find a way and Cole missed two freebies, can’t get any easier than that. That is how you win close games.

The no defense possession for a layup killed us too.

While I agree with you. We have seen our teams do this in the past to prevent fouling. I disagree with it but if you make your free throws it don’t matter.

bs. The game shouldnt have even come to that. 4 point lead and 4 straight terrible possessions, turnovers and piss poor rebounding.

Okay, I was pretty damned irked by those free throws. Then I saw RJ's tweet today:



I am moving on.

I was irked by the standing straight defensive position that enables a little brush screen to knock him off Zeg for the open layup.

Gaffney is shooting line drives and Adams is shooting the ball 80 feet in the air

The game has changed in recent years. you Really need multiple guys who can hit consistently from 3. Otherwise you match baskets and keep falling behind.
