I wondered that too. Was there a quick foul on an inbound?

I can't believe we are only down 1 after that half. We need Tejon and Finke badly.

Whew. That was one frustrating half of ball. UI can win this one.

Phew needed that 3. Still taking way too many though
One zebra clearly gave the charge signal

I just yelled that and I think it may cost me my marriage.
Exactly. That will help the offense move.
On the positive only down one with them on bench.
Gotta keep them on the floor and wear them out.
I hope you didn't go to U of I with math like that.
and if he he was shooting his regular rate he would have made a staggering 1 more three. Not gonna get on a player for going 1-3 on 3pters. Especially when he's the leading scorer today.
Extremely touchy officiating that our inexperienced team did not respond to. Very cold shooting the last ten minutes. LOTS of turnovers. And we're down one after our first half on the road.
I think we win by 8+.

Although I don't think the officiating is great, you have to adjust how you play defense according to how the officials call it. Our guys haven't figured that out yet. We played horribly and are only down 1 right now. We got lazy and complacent on offense and played too much 1 on 1 ball. I'm sure our 2nd half will be much better.

Man, the team is in a funk without Tejon and Finke.
Fingers crossed Tejon doesn't go out and pick up foul #3 at the 18-minute mark. We need Finke out there to make the zone offense flow.
Kudos to Black for staying out of foul trouble.

The quality of basketball officiating is ruining the game. Pretty much every ticky tack foul has gone against us, every 50/50 call has gone against us. We are truly playing 6 v 5 out there.

Be down only 1 with the bad fouling and going cold from 3 and running bad offense is the good news. Keep from fouling in 2nd half and run better offense we have a chance to win.
Zone defense against us , have drive and kick out. We lost tempo, regroup, keep on defense, move ball on offense. We did fine 1st 10 minutes, TJL and Finke sat we lost our flow.

I was exaggerating...you know sarcasm and such.
I expect a similar 2nd half by the ACC crew
There are like 3 times were Alstork got completely hacked and no calls. It's so frustrating to watch and sometimes makes you put into question the integrity of the game.
Free throws keeping WF in it.
Coach will hopefully make some good adjustments without compromising defense.

Not pretty over the last 8 minutes. Had 29 points at that point and only scored 5 the rest of the way. But that's what happens when your starting point guard and starting center -- your best passer and best shooter -- sit for the last 10 minutes of the half. If those two can stay out of foul trouble going forward, we'll be fine. I know, a big "if."
