Rebounding well. A couple of defensive breakdowns but they made quite a few contested shots.

Need Trent to be aggressive as their strategy seems to be sag off of everyone but Plummer.

We keep up the defense and move the ball a little better we will be ok.

Good game plan by Penn St. helping off our poorer shorters (Monte, Coleman) staying glued to Plummer and Trent. Monte made them pay a couple times. They are packing it in but we have to get some offense going to get the ball inside.

Like others have said…
That crowd is as dead as Dillinger.

I dunno if we are…but it’s like the crowd collectively came in looking by Penn St.

Goode with less tick, and DMW with more tick. Frazier and Belo are getting tired playing good D. Need Kofi so badly in 2nd half. As someone pointed out, SHOT SELECTION.

One more quick mention...how Penn State is attacking us right now is what we're going to see going forward. They have bigger guards and they have backed Frazier, Plummer and Williams under the hoop for great looks or they force help leaving a shooter open. Can't change being undersized in the backcourt. Not sure how they mask it.

hopefully this is the last game where we look disinterested and cannot throw the ball in the ocean. Our D is pathetic tonight

Absolutely a key to beating us. A great coaching move. And we have to be able to counter.
