We got thru the first scare. There will be more runs, gotta keep answering
When Jake is posting up their 6ft pt guard Smith, he has to shoot it. Even if he canât get all the way to the rim, just shoot the 6 ft turnaround jumperâŚhe has an 8â height advantage, no reason he canât shoot that comfortably.
I donât think we are going to win this one from the 3P line. They are too tired and multiple air balls already. If not for the offensive boards, the Broncos would be playing from behind, potentially well behind.
Itâs not easy to score inside against this Zags defense by any means, but it has been much more reliable than the arc.
Game plan to take away Ike is working but we should be up 10.
Offensive rebounding and Zags bricking free throws is aiding us but we really havenât played all that well.
Would like to see more Graves post ups on Ike to put Ike in foul pressure. And no more pull up 3âs on 4 on 2 fast breaks please, just take the easy bucket.
Easier said than done against Ike in the post, he gets away with murder - constantly two handed shoving in Gravesâ back
Cochrane needs to not take shots. His moves to the basket are DOA.
What on earth is Bukky/Darlan/Cochrane/Knapper and whoever that was? Gotta have Mahi, Graves out there or someone that can score.
Back to back deflating blocks.
Unfortunately Knapper has nothing groin on or goingi in.
Just exhausted, no legs under the three point shots down the stretchâŚ
Really starting to look like a team that has played twice as many games this trip as the Zags. Itâs not out of reach at all, but will require a helluva lot of will here to summon the energy to close.
Yep. The boys are exhausted.
Canât wait to have a quadruple bye next year
Nine breakaway layups - no bueno tired or notâŚtough..
Not going to lose too much sleep on this one. The boys made some mental mistakes, you could see the exhaustion.
proud of the effort!
Extremely proud of this effort, whatever happens on Sunday this team gave us a ton this year down the stretch.
Last 2 nights is just like beating a 6 seed and then losing to 3 seed. Will be psyched if we do that again next week.
Agreed. Didnât exp cut this level of success⌠two out of three Vâs SMC, take that every year.
Hoping for a great Sunday!!!
Hopefully we still bypass Dayton. 9 seed might have been a possibility if we won tonight. Donât hate avoiding the dreaded 8/9 game with a 1 seed waiting for you.
Weâve truly got a very good basketball team and just ran out of gas tonight. Credit GU as I personally believe this is Fewâs best defensive team. Proud of the boys and coaching staff and the ride continues. I look forward to seeing this teamâs joy on CBS Selection Sunday. Congratulations and the next chapter beginsâŚâŚGo Broncos!!!
We need to move away from the Gonzaga-stacked deck. Even if we are a one -bid league, letâs at least play it straight-up. Three consecutive nights? Come on.
