GAME THREAD - CU vs. Omaha | Nov. 16th @7pm | Pac-12 Mountain
- Thread starter Scotch
- Start date
A combination of Kin not playing his best game, and UNO has like 4 guys hitting crazy threes.
They certainly have made every damn shot.

Yes. If McKinley Wright IV is fifth in line to shoot the ball (even though others shot well tonight). Also if our turnovers stay this high.
Bey with a savior play
Holy **** it seems like Coors rims are always incredibly kind to 3 balls from opposing teams?!?
Omaha hitting the kind of shots that you hope to make 10% of playing horse in the park with no defense.
CU has looked ugly tonight but final score is not going to be a reflection of the quality of the teams.
This game going to give Tad a lot of talking points in film study.

Wow. Feeling lucky to walk away with this one. Props to Omaha
Win baby

I think Wright's struggles tonight were the biggest issue with the offense... felt very forced somehow. I think CU will be okay there, but will have to learn how to win without him playing well, against good teams.
I liked the rotations between Lucas, Batty and Bey as the game went on. Keeping them fresh and out of foul trouble is very important for both sides of the ball. However, I'm concerned about the lack of effective interior defense against bigs. With Lucas as our biggest guy is really going to hurt against a legit center. He can't do it one on one and there seemed to be little interest in help defense down low.

This game came very close to sucking the last bit of joy and hope from my Buffs psyche. I'm very fragile right now.
Omaha was unconscious at times and it looked like they played their A game on a night when CU didn't have it. Maybe a little to do with it being their 4th game while we were only playing our 2nd.
Win while you learn, I guess. But that was pretty brutal tonight. Credit to the squad for finding a way and avoiding what would have been a pretty devastating loss.
I thought there were some bright spots, particularly with the offense shown by Schwart and Siewert. Bey continues to show what he's capable of and is growing into becoming a star. Namon backed up a great opener with another very good outing, which is a great sign since he's never shown any consistency. What really killed us tonight is that Kin didn't have it and Gatlng hasn't figured it out yet. Way too many turnovers and the offense never really got into a flow since we got outplayed at the positions that set the table.

Battey has a long way to after watching this one. Game is still moving to fast for him, and he's getting lost consistently on D.
They made insane shots. Keep the faith
He hasn't played in two seasons...cut him some slack. If he's still playing like that by the time conference play starts, I'd be concerned.
Perhaps if you start some threads about Tad's replacement?
All Tad has to do is show them their last 2 minutes of D and tell them that they have to play like that every minute of every game to be successful. On the bright side, he has 7 backcourt players to play until some of them learn defensive intensity.
And he had a stroke and didn't know if he would ever play basketball again.
