Colorado missed 11 FTs I believe. Not saying that was the difference but just glad they missed that many.

Plus Enoch screwed the perfection, should be an asterisk.

Remember (last season on New Years eve) how DHam missed those FTs against Temple and later said it wouldn't happen again? This kid's FT's shooting has been money this year.

I remember how deadly they were against St. Joe's. Just a miss, or two, and the season would have ended in the first round.

If Colorado's percentage from the foul line had matched ours, they'd have won. No question. The win, sparked by our FT performance is a result of good fundamental coaching. Hats off to KO.

Defense and FT's. It's worked before. Do we have as much offense as 14?

You could definitely say that was a major contributor. We would give up an O rebound, they would draw a foul, go 1-2 at the line. Not ideal, but it worked.

not even close. but that doesn't matter.

You don't get to add a bunch of points at the end and say they would have won. That's not the way it works. If some of those FT's are made, it changes the game going forward.

mind boggling how often fans try to do this very thing. you change one thing, and everything else that follows is different.
