Is there enough lube in the arena for these announcers & Gonzaga
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 hope they dont get rattled. Got a nice balance.
-
UCLA just needs to maintain game plan for the rest of the 1st half - - don’t get sped up, play a really solid game so far
-
Take away Timmes baseline when back to basket every time. Good job Riley.
-
UCLA not doing to bad holding up against 5-8 – UCLA double the fouls, it was Gonzaga with 5 fouls and UCLA had 3. - -NOW Gonzaga has 5 fouls and UCLA 10? - -last 7 fouls against UCLA ? - - things that make you go hmmmmm,
-
eliminate that baseline up and under on him
-

makes me go hmmm how Gonzaga mugs some people and nothing
-
Officiating has been blatant in this game, and I don’t really care who wins.
-
I mean UCLA has gotten the worse side of the whistle and you’d have to be blind not to see it.
-
UCLA only 7 points short of their total from the E8 win over Michigan. This pace absolutely favors Gonzaga and UCLA is really going to have to muddy the game up in the second half to have a chance and play at a snail’s pace.
-
UCLA is doing a really good job of playing at their pace. They are taking their time in half-court sets and not turning the ball over too much (just 5 for the game so far). Gonzaga hasn’t had a lot of opportunity to get out and run, at least by their standards. Unfortunately for UCLA, Gonzaga is shooting 61% from the floor and 50% from 3. Yet UCLA is only down a point.
-
Think UCLA has played about as well as they can play and now down by 1. - -think it’s gonna catch up with them in the 2nd half Gonzaga probably win. - -Makes me feel even better about Baylor - -seeing when they play against an aggressive attack the rim type team - -a team that competes on the boards and gives Timme something to think about a little different story.
Gonzaga hasn’t been tested in the Tourney tonight has played well -still think Baylor’s 4 Guards - - - Butler - - Teague - - Mayer & Mitchell gonna cause them some problems

I think it might get a little ugly for UCLA in the 2nd half - but a really game plan in the 1st half - - UCLA shot 58% themselves

been pretty bad in favor of Gonzaga
-
I think there’s a good chance both teams come back to earth a little with shooting percentages. If UCLA can just keep playing at their pace and not turn the ball over in the 2nd half then they have a shot.

ya thats the HUGE thing, they have to stick to their game plan – - be patient - - work the clock take advantage of mis matches - don’t get sped up against these guys. Keep the game close into the last 5 minutes, where anyone’s game see how Gonzaga withstands legit pressure. Again they haven’t been challenged until tonight. - -UCLA led for like 18 of the 20 minutes in the 1st half.
The first 6-7 minutes of the 2nd half going to be HUGE for UCLA
-
Is this halftime longer?
-
CBS getting extra ads in? Did they cut out the Duke special? Something is different.
-
I think Gonzaga’s Kispert & Suggs going to find it a little harde rscoring 3’s against Baylor’s defense. Mitchell probably on Kispert maybe Butler on Suggs - gonna be a good game I hope
-
John Beileins next excuse… “i didnt tell the team to stop acting like thugs. I said stop acting like Suggs”
-
UCLA has gotten lucky - -real lucky a couple of times tonight , Gonzaga with a couple of wide - - wide - - open three’s and missed. Kispert missed one , Timme missed one. That doesn’t usually happen had ttime to set their feet just missed that’s not going to happen very often especially with Kispert.
I said the first 6-7 minutes was going to be huge for UCLA they still right there
-
Suggs might take over still.
-
I really like Rileys awareness of the whole court and composure when he has the ball deep in the paint.
-
4 point lead is Gonzaga’s biggest lead of the night
-
W. T. F. call. Flagrant 1 my ass
-
There is the turning point of the game , mark it down 12:08 in the game now down 5 , mark my words with that call
-
Every time take away baseline. Ive never seen Timme not go baseline
-
Not stroking your unoriginal beard now Timme. Look kind of worried…
-
these missed free throws gonna come back and haunt UCLA
-
Zags getting the duke treatment. Turned it off after that BS flagrant and 1.
Never thought I’d root for Baylor, but I will.
-
Was that NOT a walk by Timme ?
-
@jayballer67 Kisperts possession looked like a walk
-

-
Then the don’t make the shot - - well dam we will call a foul
-
@DanR youre going to miss the greatest upset in recent memory. Its cool.
-
Well win or lose you have to commend UCLA for keeping it close for this long. Tough team
-
Tyger has been owning Suggs anticipating the charge
-

-

Mercy - -what a Game , here is your championship game lol. Can Monday top this ?

Juzang would’ve been a bust here. Homesickness was a big part of why he flamed out at Kentucky and would’ve happened here too. Same deal with Grimes, homesickness was a big part of his issues at Kansas.
