Finally! 2 games too late
You referring to his missed FT on the front end of a 1-and-1? When they showed that graphic with Oregon's worst free throw shooters I thought they had a couple other guys who shoot in the 60s percentage wise but maybe I'm remembering wrong
What was the final answer to stop them?
I don’t think there was anyone on the bench that Altman had faith he could turn to for FT shooting. Rigsby is the only bench guy who played meaningful minutes, he was already on the floor with Shelstad getting hurt. Oquendo played 8 minutes and shot 66% on FTs for the season.

Yeah that one, loved Altman's body language before those free throws though. Whatever confidence Dante had, it was all gone after seeing his coach react like that.
I didn't know Johnny Lawrence plays for Utah St.
This stretch of chalk results kills the profit from the first two days.
Utah State needs to stop trying to take the ball inside against Edey

Let's talk about their performance as a league in this tournament-
New Mexico-gets blown out by Clemson in a game they were never in.
CSU-wins a game against a Virginia team that didn't belong in the tournament, and follows that up with an 11 point performance in the first half Thursday against Texas.
Nevada-Gets a 17 point second half lead, and can't hold it against Dayton.
Boise-loses to CU in the First Four
Utah State-beats TCU, isn't competitive with Purdue.
Four pretty ugly exits for a league that wants to be taken seriously!
Which one does not qualify as ugly?
Outside of a couple games, two of which involved the Buffs, this tournament has been a total bust
Edit: this ROUND
Edit: this ROUND
The NC State game went into OT last night and then Creighton went to doublt OT last night. But yea overall not a whole lot of drama
Would not be a bad outcome if Clemson can continue to play well and eliminate **** Baylor.

Boise?
I watched the game with 6 other CU grads at a bar this morning.
Fear of being embarrassed in the first half for 95% of the time, not sure what to expect in the second half. Very excited in the last half of the second half, but knowing we were more hanging on and could never put a dagger in to take a real lead.
So close, but not enough. I was feeling pretty dejected when I left the bar.
Once home, I fired up the women's game from the start despite seeing the first 10+ minutes at the bar. That was a significant win. Lee was a serious PITA in the middle disrupting our typical motion. I thought JR made significant adjustments at halftime that led to the commanding win on KSU's home court. This should be considered a signature win.
Congrats to the men for giving it their all. They honestly shouldn't hang their heads being touch and go with the #2 seed with less than 8 seconds left. I will also definitely continue to watch the women's games going forward. They are special.

Iowa State could give them a game. Houston too. Other than that I agree. They're going to pound NW and then beat the Yale/SDSU winner by 30.
