Wichita State (#23) at Connecticut

[WstateU]

I lost a year of my life during that game. It was probably worth it.

Same here, unfortunately I don’t have many to lose.

[pinstripers]

I didn't watch the game but I know the court is on ice. Were the players sliding and risking injury at that place?

yes

[ShockRef]

Anyone giving Marshall **** for his handling of this game needs to STFU. This is what you encounter in the tournament and the more his players can figure it out now the better. This is fantastic experience.

I'm giving him an 'F' for end game management.
He has demonstrated stubbornness before and thought he was getting away from it. However, it undeniably returned to form today.

The lack of using TO's when his Freshman PG was totally rattled was inexcusable.

The lack of end game smarts at the end of regulation and no foul was abysmal.
No foul with less than 10 seconds?
Really?
But...once wasn't enough.
End of the 2nd OT and he decided to let them take another trey... which luckily bounced in and out.

Try defending that rationale in earnest and you may be a true black and yellow fan - and also need to put the crack pipe down.

That is all.

I dont agree with you all the time. Probably 50/50. But this is one of those times I agree.

ESL classes.

The first 3 to tie the game was a huge defensive lapse where I believe Dex came off his guy to stop Gilbert on the drive. He then kicked it out to a terrible 3 point shooter to tie. Give him the layup

[T.VuOP]

Coach definitely will face criticism for today game. We ended up winning. But, to lose 9 point lead in 1:10 is unacceptable

[wichshock65]

Don't even know what to say. What a F'ing game. GS Will learn from this. His first conference road game and we will be better because if. Refs were worse than I can remember..... pitiful. Win and advance is the theme of the day.

DEX IS BACK!

In other news, huge spike in heart attack victims reported by Wichita area hospital today.

OK, here was marshals explanation for not fouling: we had multiple players on the court with four fouls and after defensive switches, guys on the ball had four fouls and I guess he didn’t want to give up the foul for a player. Still though, I would’ve given the player up or he could’ve chose to make a substitution.

Dexter slipped on the low major ice rink floor

Sliding all over the place

[1972Shocker]

Although it should never have got to OT, UConn had the momentum and a big advantage with the foul situation at the end of regulation. The Shockers showed great toughness and fortitude in grinding out the win in double OT when the ball just didn't seem to be bouncing there way today.

So great to have Dex back. We don't win today without him. JB is a tough competitor. Surprised he missed those 2 free throws at the end of the 2nd OT. Thought for sure he would make at least on of those.

Hopefully, threr will be some important lessons learned from this game that will provide benefits down the road. It's always better to learn those lessons in a win than in a loss.

I am taking up a collection for Coach Hurley if anyone wants to chip in.

I would like to send him a case of this:





and a I think he could also use this for his glasses:

[Veritas]

Its like Marsahll is working for UConn

Huh?

[im4wsu]

Sliding all over the place

I’d say at least six slipped down, another 3-4 travels and multiple one-foot slips
