[Sal Iacuzzo]

Finke and Alstork are proven shooters at this level, their shots will start falling.

[afpharmdawg]

MS nice move and rebound

 

[skyIdub]

[PNWIllini]

Strong moves by Smith the past two times

 

[Trakis]

smith is a strong boi

 

[afpharmdawg]

Sloppy but ball bouncing the right way so far

 

[Ubermensch]

Mike Finke is playing hard.

 

[afpharmdawg]

smith is a strong boi

agree

 

[PNWIllini]

These guys attack the paint so much more than Groce's teams

 

[skyIdub]

We set a record total FTA this year.

 

[afpharmdawg]

We started sluggish but we are playing harder now.

 

[Trakis]

It's honestly so wild to see us penetrate like this. 4 years of settling for contested jumpers on every trip down the court... this honestly feels strange.

 

[afpharmdawg]

Anyone know where UT Martin is ranked?

Had the same thought. Also look how high we puck up on defense and the half court traps. Nice not waiting to last 2 minutes down 10 to do this.
