Wake Forest Game THread

This CBS Sports reporter is major, wow

Who ever said WF was terrible? They have some nice young players along with Harris. Thank Goodness they can't shoot free throws.

This is turning into a another nice challenge for our squad. As soon as Tyler, Bazz and Omar get going we should run away with this game. But I'm not sure WF will let us.

Agreed. The Harris + CMM backcourt is pretty solid.

Wake Forest fans say WF is terrible. They haven't beaten a team in KenPom's top 100 since their coach has taken over. They were actually looking forward to not losing big tonight, that's how bad they think their team is. Even ESPN's assessment of the team in the preseason was that they "might not be horrible" this year.

With whom is JC broadcasting??

 

[uconNYC]

Are we watching the same game? I think we should be killing them. They look pretty poor to me.

 

[upstater]

Kemba's Mom is there!!!

 

[prankster]

Need Bazz to improve his line a bit in the 2nd half

Here's the pregame thread from a WF board:

When asked what it would take to feel positive about the game after it's over, the first reply is "not wanting to kill myself."

Annnnd to open the half, Olander thinks the hoop was moved one foot to the left lowered down by 6 inches.

 

[DoronElAmin]

Olander really validating my praise for him with that strong move to the hole there...

 

[boog204]

we bite on every pump fake

 

[boog204]

Wolf giving us some real good minutes

 

[DoronElAmin]

Wolf on... Calhoun struggling.

 

[UCweCONN]

I've been impressed with Wolf. He can be a factor this season.

 

[Kevin Caliendo]

hey Shabazz....it might be time to take over the game for a bit.

 

[UConn990411]

Calhoun has fallen way too in love with his jumper - his strength has always been slashing to the basket.

 

[uconNYC]

we need to make a run. dont want these guys hanging around.

 

[upstater]

No one except for Daniels is allowed to take 3s for the rest of this game.

 

[DoronElAmin]

Calhoun needs to try to get something going to the basket, be aggressive like he was on the first couple possessions. He's hovering around the perimeter way too much right now.

 

[RayRay19]

Wolf is getting rebounds and a few steals which were just bad passes. He got a few blocks but he definitely needs to step up his defense for being 7'1". But i like what I am seeing.

 

[UconnBoston]

What is with these announcers? I cannot imagine a less objective broadcast. This is ridiculous.

 

[uchusky32]

What's up with Bazz? Has to get some offense going. Seems to gain and lose confidence at quickly. We need him to be consistent.

 

[kyle]

Evans always finishes

unfortunately, this is nothing new. A lot of similar stuff last year. we certainly need him though.

 

[sledog]

Are they caving, or is it just me?

 

[SJ]

Too close. Eek.

 

[superjohn]

WTF is Going on with Shabazz?

 

[bmayuc]

clocks ticking for shabazz. You know its only a matter of time before he hits like 3 threes in a row or something crazy...
