Same here.

I don't have a good feeling about this game. BC is better than they get credit for, and we have been too streaky lately. Our inside game concerns me the most. I think this game will be as much a test of DK as the rest of the team. I hope we give them a really good run.

you're not missing much. down 6-0 and we can't get a shot off against the BC zone.

one poor half of basketball. down 11 and it could have been much worse. our offense is horrible so far tonight, scoring only 24 pts so far. gonna need a huge second half to win this one.

Gotta hope the shooting heats up, or this one is gonna be a blow out.

This team had more than its share of opportunities to come back and easily take this game. Sure, you can say it was a nice comeback from being down 13 points, but its still disappointing. Free throw shooting is horrendous - that could have been the game difference.

UMass lost this game because of two reasons. FT shooting and 3pt shooting. Both were horrid today. Just wont get it done vs a team like BC. What sucks is a win today would have brought back the fans ten fold.
