I saw a lot of Arizona games. I doubt Ballo ever gets to the league, very limited game offensively, can't shoot free throws and not big enough to dominate inside. Arizona had a lot of limited talented guys who had to all play well to win.

KD recklessly attacked the basket. Aden and Tre dribbled half the shot clock away. The Houston guards and Sears played downhill, fast and furious the whole game.

He does exactly what AU's guards didn't, attack, attack, attack.

Oops, dribble.

The teams that are winning have guards constantly on the attack. Our guards, particularly Holloway dripple away 15 seconds of the shot clock and run a desperation play.

Full team choke on free throws and bunnies but the refs were horrible. Broome should have fouled out Wolf 15 minutes earlier. we looked at them wrong and a foul was called.

Hate to be a whiner but that was the most one sided ref action in memory

That sequence was rough. he stood dribbling at the top of the key until the clock was running down, dribbled into three defenders and turned it over and bricked a three.

Emotional yes, thug no, lighten up Francis.

Part of the problem is there aren't a lot of good teams in the West. Arizona won the PAC 12 and got punked by a mediocre Oregon team in the tourney. Gonzaga is not all that great.

Chad, Jones and Chaney all have another year, right?

That kid Knecht played like the number one pick in the draft. Chad played decent defense on him too. He was literally unguardable at times.

This team with everybody healthy can make a serious post season run.

The point guards have their moments, Aden seems to be getting his mojo back, but sometimes they seem to stand out by the half court line, dribbling in and out of traps and waste half the shot clock, forcing bad shots. K.D. is a bundle of energy but sometimes he takes puzzling shots.

Anybody know why Chris Moore only played 2 minutes? I get he doesn't bring any offense but it was generally he gets 10-15 minutes. Was it injury, mad because he didn't start and pouted? Curious...

I'd throw in Chad in the alpha dog category.

How about going twin posts with Broome and Cardwell? Play big boy basketball with Chad, Jones and Donaldson.

I don't buy that 31% shooting is the norm. They are one of the top offensive efficiency teams in the country

Some of the rotations were perplexing. there were times you had Chris Moore, Chaney T. and Aden on the floor at once so you got 2 guys playing offense.

Harbaugh and L'il Nicky are highly involved in the game.

True that.

The Big Ten has got some tough kids. They weren't in any way intimidated by the Tide.

Watching the Turds and Michigan , AU has a long way to go. The hitting, pursuit, tackling angles are all things we lack. Did you see how the Michigan db scooped up the fumble? It was textbook.

Mentioned it earlier, Thorne plays flat and passionless and demonstrates zero leadership qualities. This guy can't be qb1.

Trooper Taylor is tanned and rested.
