Winner of this game is scheduled to face a 4-2 Brown team Monday at 1:15 PM MT, while the loser will face Bradley beginning at ~11:00 AM Monday. (Brown defeated Bradley 65-62 earlier today.)

 

[Robert Sorell]

This team is really good at turning the ball over in the first segment

 

[Robert Sorell]

Keep seeing guys slip all over the floor #islandlife

 

[AztecBuff]

Now that the football game is over (GO BUFFS!!!), checked in on this game, and it's 17-15 Duquesne a little over halfway through the 1st half.

 

[Lightning]

Loverling having a hard time finishing. KJ nice aggressive plays, LOB some productive minutes.

 

[AztecBuff]

(Not a bball expert by ANY means, but assume it's hard to win with no 3's nowadays, and Buffs are 0-7 in that stat at the half.)

2/3 of this I agree with.

I’m officially getting concerned about Jabari.

 

[Buffnik]

0/10 from 3.
Duquesne is 6/13.

Perimeter D & shooting have to improve. It's real hard to win this way.

By the end of Monday's game that Virgin Islands commercial jingle will be permanently ingrained in my memory.

They shot so well the first 3 games, I'm tempted to blame it on the gym; but their opponents have shot fine.

I mute the audio at the breaks, can't take it haha.

 

[Hallett Hell]

This is worse than the football game

 

[WWCD]

I suppose life is simpler without sports

 

[Robert Sorell]

First 3 taken by Kee is the first hit by the team in 14 attempts

 

[cu3x]

I can hear the refs, going over the lineups pregame, 'yeah that Battey is always in foul trouble.'

 

[Buffnik]

Did you guys know the Duquesne player is 6'7" with a 7'0" wingspan?

 

[Hank]

Nice!

 

[BuffDog]

OT - I think we will win now

 

[Robert Sorell]

What a disorganized play, but I'll take it

 

[Hallett Hell]

OMG.

 

[BuffDog]

Great play by Simpson to deliver the pass so De Silva could hit our 2nd 3 of the game and send the game to OT.

 

[BuffDog]

We have never led in the game

 

[Buffnik]

Da Silva has grown up on this trip.

Seeing some good signs from KJ, too.

I'd love to see Kee at the 2 and Da Silva as 6th man.

 

[Hallett Hell]

Do they not have mops in the Virgin Islands?

 

[BuffDog]

Got to watch the Buffs win 2 games today that they should not have. Should probably head out and buy a lottery ticket.

 

[cu3x]

Who is the guy with the large gold CU banner?

 

[Robert Sorell]

Do they not have mops in the Virgin Islands?

Apparently not, just disinterested towel kids who slowly and half assedly wipe up ~1/3rd of the wet spot.

 

[Goose]

Da Silva has grown up on this trip.

Seeing some good signs from KJ, too.

I'd love to see Kee at the 2 and Da Silva as 6th man.

I want to see Nique in the starting lineup by conference play but KJ being ready and being in the lineup wouldn’t be bad either.

That said, I’d rather have Key running the show and KJ off ball.

 

[Darth Snow]

I couldn't watch til OT. Nice win. Not often you shoot 20% from 3 and pull it out if the other team is hot
