Some extra motivation for this team to see

Our toughness is being underestimated and so is Tristan Newton. If this doesn’t piss the team off I don’t know know what would let’s go.

Wow, the guy in the left pointed out that only one of these teams is going to win this game!
Now, that’s the sort of insight we turn to experts for.
 
One thing that irks me is we didn't keep our foot on the gas. I would have loved to have heard the reaction by those two clowns after a 40 point blowout.

I disagree a couple makeble 3s let’s just say 2 of them drop in each half and we’re looking at a 26-30 pt win, add in a ft miss by Newton and Karaban and 2 by Diarra. I actually think the final score makes their logic look even dumber about Bouie being the best player, you consider only 1 or 2 of Castles fouls were legit fouls.
 
The oldest pundit trick... nobody remembers if you're wrong and you can brag for a year if you're right.

Look at the bright side. Hurley now has ammunition to ride them this week. And they got a bad 3 point shooting game out of the way when they didn't need to shoot well. I hope they shoot the lights out next game.

Trust me, as far as I'm concerned, a win is a win. I just would have loved to have heard those two explain away a bigger beatdown (which it easily could have been).
 
Very laughable. I just watched their vid for the first time. Homers. Biased. No cred. Buie had nine and Castle shut him down. Good omen for things to come.

Exactly, this game was over before it started. Hurley ran no offense for 5 minutes in second half out of respect for collins. Toughest part of game was deciding which bottle of winr to enjoy during stomping
 
We choked the clock to death for 12 minutes and yes it looked ugly but it was about moving on. I’m glad Hurley has this ammunition and for gods sake have them do some shooting, we could need it.

Clearly these guys haven’t watched UConn much this year. B10 shills. I hope they both make big bets on NU money line.

Unfortunately they come up on my YT feed and theyre passive aggressive Uconn haters especially the guy on the left. Every time ive watched a video of theres with Uconn its the same story. Uconn is really good, theyre a force but (insert flavor of the week)is better and Uconn will lose their next game. Rinse and repeat. Also the Dan Hurley serial killer comparison is cringe asf.

Who cares? They'll have to do that next round.

See, I think that we now know when a team tries to take our 3 game away or we aren’t hot from the arc, we just automatically slide over to the inside game, mid range jumpers in the paint and attacking the basket more. Newton, Castle, Cam. Alex sliding back door.

Being off from 3 is no longer an Achilles.

The part where the talked about who is the worst player was really cool. They may be right (who knows) and that is really scary.

That's an any given day proposition; the corollary is that any of them could be our best on that given day.

This is what makes us so difficult. Six different players have had at least one game where he led the team in scoring (our current starting five and SJ). We have five players (current starting five) who average double digit scoring and each had had multiple twenty point games. There may have been some very good teams where any one of three players could have been the best player in a given game but we have five who happen to be at a level where any one can basically disappear offensively (be viewed statistically as the worst of our starters in one game) and still overwhelm a team with what the other four did on offense (and with what that one player did that often doesn't make it to the stat sheet).

An opponent cannot gameplan against us where the philosopy is "if we take away that guy, we can beat them" as there re too many others that would also need to be taken away.

And we don't generate offense by putting guys in ISO and getting out of their way. We score through schemes and sets with counters to counters built in. Somebody could go lava hot and out score us (St. Johns took a stab at it) but it's gonna take some doing.
 
I logged in to see their prediction. I expected that in the post game recap they would acknowledge their errors. Nope. Their dream now is for a Purdue - Illini Final. Last time I will waste my time listening to these punks. They have no more cred than the guy that picks through the trash looking for cans and bottle to feed himself. DO NOT FEED THESE TROLLS!

Probably less trolls than Big10 homers.
