And KOA said it's his birthday

It's also Joe Biden's birthday. He mentioned it at the turkey pardoning today.

 

[Hank]

‘22-23 - **** the bed in Myrtle Classic. 1-2.
‘21-22 - 2-1 Paradise Jam
‘20-21 - Little Apple Classic - 2-0. Far West Classic - 2-0
‘19-20 - MGM Main Event - 3-0
‘18-19 - Diamond Head Classic - **** the bed. 1-2.
‘17-18 - Paradise Jam - 3-0
‘16-17 - Legends Classic - 3-1
‘15-16 - Las Vegas Classic - 1-1 (3-1 counting home games but I’m not)
‘14-15 - Diamond Head Classic - 1-2 (not getting **** the bed designation because we finished fourth)
‘13-14 - no tournament

So 2.5 **** the beds and 4 where we won the damn tournament. 20-9 record. Yeah, we suck at early season tournaments.

That looks like a lot of work!

Only about 100 years separating the two.

 

[El Gringo]

I haven’t looked at the stats, but it just *feels* like the Buffs are hitting free throws much better than in years past.

 

[Hank]

What was the line? Was that a bad beat?

 

[Daaah]

Good solid win.

 

[Uncle Ken]

Good solid win.

Gritty. Of course that final three fell.

 

[Daaah]

Over to the Manning cast.

 

[cnbuff410]

#2 on their side is playing out of his mind.

 

[Buffnik]

Maintained the lead the entire way. Not stressful at all. Yawn. Another boring win.

The game's over dude.

 

[Medford M.]

We need to be a much better team tomorrow

Idk about that. FSU isn't good.

 

[Daaah]

Idk about that. FSU isn't good.

Neither is Richmond. They got smoked by Boston college.

 

[Medford M.]

7 points? Lead at the half? That's getting smoked?

 

[ahoelsken]

Maintained the lead the entire way. Not stressful at all. Yawn. Another boring win.

Thats a really good win, but we are going to need be better tomorrow. Golden opportunity for a W that could help the resume.

 

[torero]

The 20-21 was one of the best FT shooting teams in NCAA history. Had the record (along with another school the same year that’s escaping me) going into the NCAA tournament and missed a couple too many FTs in the tourney to set the record.

 

[Goose]

The last years we had horrible losses that screwed us rankings wise. You forget UMass, the #200 team?

You mean the year I put “**** the bed” in? No, I didn’t forget that.

 

[Hank]

“You gotta give Richmond credit. They were able to hold them to 10 three point field goal attempts. This is the leading three point shooting team in the country coming into the game.”

 

[Alfred91]

Neither is Richmond. They got smoked by Boston college.

I think tonight was more about us playing away from home for the first time this season. Hopefully we'll be more comfortable tomorrow.

 

[Daaah]

I love that we still have cards to be played. Williams is pulling weight, but I don't think he has shown anything close to what he can be.

 

[Da Lama]

Gutty win. Richmond is tough and gonna be decent this year. I’ll take it.

And TBH, we actually match up better against FSU’s game than Richmond’s.

 

[Hank]

DBT sh*t his Depends.

Four times.

 

[Goose]

DBT sh*t his Depends.

Four times.

 

[BuffsNYC]

Pretty tight early season rotation for Tad. Buffs were weirdly tentative on offense, except for KJ. They're gonna have to learn to take open shots on the perimeter, especially when they're not getting points on the break. Tad ball still getting wins, tho--plus 6 rebounding edge with 10 offensive rebounds.

 

[Medford M.]

I'm struggling to find a reason to be afraid of FSU. That's a team that was losing by 30 at halftime to Florida last week.

 

[Medford M.]

“You gotta give Richmond credit. They were able to hold them to 10 three point field goal attempts. This is the leading three point shooting team in the country coming into the game.”

They didn't keep us from shooting, we just didn't for some reason. Need to be getting up at least 20 threes a night.

 

[bldrbbott]

the away crowd was deafening

 

[WWCD]

Cody will not be playing in the NBA next year if this passivity continues

 

[Da Lama]

Our offense was off all night. No fluidity compared to the last 3 games

 

[Medford M.]

It's how he's played his whole life.
