The best word to describe this team. When you have a team with our size and are getting out rebounded by a terrible rebounding team ... when you have Cuse giving up random fouls at the end because they only have 3 fouls in an entire half come on thats weak. That tells you our guards are not driving .. our big men are not being assertive ... Napier was 100% right this team fights with pillows. Why this team doesnt try to go to the hoop and draw fouls dumbfounds me it just makes no sense NONE, outside of being SOFT!

While I absolutely despise and do not respect syracuse ... and cant stand knowing we lost to them... I will say that the second half was a different story. Players started to step up.... this team needs to play that way the ENTIRE game not just here and there.

All that matters is the learning points.

They need to take the charge and block the lanes.
Bazz needs to go inside and slow down on the 3-point trigger
SU bench -- 26 points. Uconn Bench? Zero. 0-9. A couple of key boards from Daniels and Giffey.

I'm not sure how the lanes issue escaped Blaney.

Uconn started doing better when they made their presence known in the paint. Instead of lobbing the ball around the patemeter they started to penetrate and draw fouls. Fabmelo didn't play so tough with 3 fouls til the final minutes. Uconn needs to continue to do that. I also liked the fact that Giffery hammered the piss out of that layup drive to the hoop. Foul hard make a statement. This teams needs Calhoun back ASAP.

My softness as a fan was tested tonight. I almost yelled " this " when down 17 and LETTING the Cuse score at will. I had the remote pointed at the Toshiba ready to watch the freakin' NBA gala crap when i thought...'wait, there's still time...'

They were definitely soft in the first half, but in the second half they played as hard as I've seen them play all season. Hopefully they cmoe out with an edge to them against Providence.

I counted the number of charges they took, it was real easy, zero. One blocking call, Drummond nudged someone out of bounds in the first half. Smith and Oriaki are awful on defense. Same for Napier. They play madador defense.
