I'm gonna remember it as me drinking whiskey single-handily willing this team back into the game.

 

I used to play a post-game Doc Sadler press conference drinking game with Buffalo Trace. Needless to say, I don't remember how most of those press conferences ended.

Well, I'll be.  They got a block/charge call right.

[NUtball]

Holy Roby!

The refs must've forgot to watch the Nebraska/Wisconsin film.

Is Okeke only allowed 5 minutes?

Roby tried to go MJ

Commentator on Roby's missed dunk: "That's the prettiest missed dunk I've seen all season."

Already had two do we have to have a third?

[brfrad]

One trip down we show a 1-3-1 zone, shot clock violation, and haven't showed it since.

Seems highly correlated with three-point attempts.

Has Copeland boxed anyone out this year?

"Boxed out"? Is that when you finish a box of wine all by yourself?

Honestly, the man defense has been pretty good, it's just the complete inability to get a defensive rebound, but I agree with what you're saying.  They looked like total crap against the 1-3-1.

He's our leading rebounder this year.

I have to say, our bench celebration game has been on point this year. Fun to watch the guys celebrate

I really hate to make too many comparisons to this particular season, but it does remind me a lot of the 2013-2014 season. Their bench celebrations were on point that year as well.

Our rebounding is driving me to the box wine, that's for damn sure.

Yeah that's been the biggest surprise for me tonight... with jordy out, I thought he'd get the majority of minutes at the 5
