How many turnovers does KJ?
Underwood knew it was coming and still couldn’t stop it. Willard at a break gave away the secret to beating us-shut down the screener off the roll and our offense goes to a standstill

Hire Fran.
Should have gone with the beet juice?
Does Brad seem like a guy that's scared and hesitates? Does he seem like a guy that wouldn't fire up his kids every way possible? He warned this group right after the Iowa win that this was going to be a different game.
Our "stars" aren't "stars" and theirs are.

I thought I saw Carey Booth buying scratch-offs at the liquor store this half...
Maryland minus 1.5 was pretty close. Vegas so smart.
Only 6
Postgame thread is open, already!

6 again, but he had 15 points...
Watching a team with this much talent play so dumb is a special kind of hell.
Are we playing Duke again?
What did KB say on his interview last night?
Brad's teams always struggle against teams with size. Reese has 25 pounds on Morez and 20 on Tomi. This was going to be a loss one way or another. The three-point explosion makes it a blowout.
When the players you're trying to beat are wider, they can more easily block passing lanes. You have a harder time driving past them, and with the post players, a harder time getting a shot past them.
We really rely on quickness, cuts, kickouts, and offensive rebounds. Every bit of that becomes harder when the lane is clogged.

Kudos to Dan for waiting that long!!
When Maryland is playing Illinois is like having a picnic for them.
