They are doing a damn good job of cutting off driving lanes. Forcing us to shoot. Luckily, we can.

These refs that aren't household names aren't calling a lot of fouls with very fast games this year.
Defense immediately poor after Reed goes to the bench, STJ 3.
And another.
And another.
Tied at 38.
Reed back in after the TO.
Back? We would have had to have actually had one first for them to be back.
Edwards rim stuffed. Again.
Good thing Cal benches Shep to let St Joe's catch up.
That last one had a hand in the face about as well as you can do it.
Teams don’t miss at Rupp except for us
I love Dilly but he has to stop leaving shooters. He's given up a lot of open threes this year. Only complaint I really have about him.
If this team doesn't improve on defense dramatically and get at least 1 seven footer on the floor. They won't win anything.
Going to be fun to watch shoot. But you gotta play better defense and have to have size.

To be fair to Edwards, that rim is a hell of a defender

There has to be some stats to back up our opponents shooting in Rupp. I'd love to compare opponents 3pt shooting in Rupp, Cameron and AFH.. and just see if it's similar.
