A rare Friday night game against Buffalo. Tip is 7pm on ESPNU.
I don't think we pull this one out tonight however I think we will get Buffalo when we play them at the Stroh.

Huge road test. We'll need to play hard the whole game to have a chance.

Even harder than the Suckeyes did last night.

Getting closer to game time. If we can hold down Massenburg we have a shot.

Under 16, we're tied at 12. Looking like a solid effort so far, though I'm a bit nervous about the officials being against us. 3 offensive fouls so far.

2 offensive fouls. Wiggins and Koch. Lillard was on the defensive end but all 3 were the correct calls. Have no issues against the refs. Not yet at least.

Nice to see that the refs are being fair. So far so good.

They haven't been overly biased to this point. I just think having 60% of our fouls so far being offensive is a bit extreme. You don't see that many offensive fouls in most games...

I think I missed the under 12.
10:28 left in the first half, BG is down 20-18.

A couple defensive lapses and a couple missed free throws is the difference in the game. I agree that there's been lots of offensive fouls, but they were the correct calls. Like them or not, Wiggins clearly pushed off with the elbow, Cummings ran into the player after passing the ball and Koch was over the back. Can't disagree with anything

And another offensive foul...
I don't disagree with them. I'm just surprised at how often they are getting called compared to most other games.

We have to be one of the worst teams in college basketball at setting screens. You cannot move your upper body when you're setting a screen. Somebody needs to tell Plowden that
