They really should have switched to a zone at some point, felt like they broke the pressure every time in the first half. That's on Pitino.

 

[logen]

Can’t argue w that key play & situation

Sorry, that was a good shot that didn’t go in by a guy who hit the whole game.

 

[NCJohnnie]

Bottom line is we didn't deserve to win. They got all the key loose balls and hit all the big shots and double digit loss to boot.

 

[dk423]

2-14 from 3
21-30 from FT
Gave up 28 fast break points

[mm52]

they hit 2 3 pointers after a scamble with a second left on the clock. it was their night.

There were at least 3 times I can remember where they hit a 3 at the end of the shot clock or got a 3 off a second opportunity after a scramble. They out hustled us and deserved the win, but they helped make their luck too.

 

[MJDinkins]

Pitino is not the one who missed the FT's, he's not the one who made stupid foul or turnovers (i.e. Luis). I really believe having the week off hurt them.

I thought he perhaps played man defense too long.

 

[espken]

Olivari made some tough shots after we tied it. They hit their free throws, we didn’t. Showed a lot of heart after being down 11. This one hurts, but not quitting on this team. They still have alot of fight in them.

 

[Shannon]

Yep. Unlike Luis, he doesn't hurt us when he's not scoring

Luis was brutal tonight on all fronts, worst game for him of the season. Looked lost the entire game.

 

[Mean Gene]

Now 7th in the conference before our matchup against #1 UConn...

People can point to metrics all they want but this is not a tournament team unless we go like 7-2 in our last nine games. Not happening.

 

[Show me the NIL]

After watching this game, I’m not sure that you can call the Seton Hall game an aberration. Their performance, both physically and mentally was lacking throughout. Only thing different was there wasn’t a 28-0 scoring drought.

 

[Redzone]

Down by 3 with 1:43 remaining and we lose by 11. Free throws were not the issue 70% for FT's not great. But 2 for 14 from 3 !!! That's pathtic.

 

[Marillac2]

Sorry, that was a good shot that didn’t go in by a guy who hit the whole game.

You’re out of your goddamn mind.

 

[Jack Williams]

Now we have to hear about everything wrong with daniss jenkins when literally no one else on the team can take and make a 3 pointer. He was the only one to make one tonight and he’s not even a good shooter. You’re not gonna win consistently when no one can shoot

 

[Knight]

Soriano spent too much time at the top of the key.

 

[Marillac2]

Luis was brutal tonight on all fronts, worst game for him of the season. Looked lost the entire game.

He looked terrible.

espken, we always say that this team shows heart after they come back from being down big. The problem is that it happens all the time. The problem is that we’re down so much in the first place before we actually start to give maximum effort. We can’t keep digging ourselves out of a hole.

Played great until he didn’t. He made a very bad decision. That’s the problem with undisciplined players at the end of games.

 

[paultzman]

Season of lost opportunities so far at crunch time, tonight, at Creighton, UConn away & home v M’Q. A trend that can’t be ignored & sweeping an off year Nova does not negate that

 

[mjmaherjr]

We didn’t deserve to win that’s what hurt the most. This bothers me as much as BC and Seton Hell
