Rewatched a couple sequences.

1. Purvis was fouled on the shot at the buzzer. But you're not going to get that call easily.
2. Huge swing at the start of the second half when Brimah misses 2 free throws and then goaltends.
3. They went down low to Brimah and Facey on four straight possessions at end of 2nd half and start of overtime.
4. Two killer fouls that cost UConn, like turnovers: A. Brimah's charge (it was a flop) and B. Rodney off the ball, kid ran right into his chest, Rodney moved out of the way to avoid him, they bumped chests, but the kid flopped. If that's a foul, then any player should run up to any other player, bump them and flop.

Agree to all but no reason to re-watch the game...should have won despite inept officials & horrific shooting....miracle we made OT in one sense but should have won by 8+ points even after losing Adams. I like Purvis, Brimah & Facey as people but the only one that has improved in 3 years is Facey it appears, although a very small sample on Facey. Time to turn the page....the 3 seniors will play the next 19 games because we have 8 players but I don't expect anything more than we have seen the past 3 years from them.

Bruce Pearl team for ya (with the flopping)

adams in ~1 minute of basketball -- knocks down a rhythm three, dishes a long-distance lob to facey, gets knocked out on the next play.

he sat out most of the first half with foul trouble, but looked GREAT in the few minutes he was on the floor second half. we would have won with him out there, and that certainly doesn't take the sting away.
