We usually look like this in the first half, then pull ahead comfortably in the second. Hopefully that’ll be the case again today.
12th ranked Hoiskers take on USC as 5 point favorite

Getting sick and tired of the other team always grabbing Sanfort as he breaks to the basket up top.
Lawrence isn’t that good handling the ball. We just don’t have any point guards when Hoiberg is out.
It’s amazing to see Hoibergs development. 2 years ago I thought he shouldn’t play in a power conference. Now he’s such a difference maker. We’re lucky to have him
Sam’s more of a Swiss Army knife than a point guard. But you can’t have both Sam and Lawrence out of the game at the same time, because then you have no ball-handling at all. That’s what I was getting at.
Jacobsen doesn’t look the port but the offense flows well enough with him at point sometimes
Sometimes yes, but not against this kind of ball pressure.
Yep, making them pay for overplaying perimeterSome really good offensive plays being used right now
See that assist state with and without Sam in the game. It’s like 11-1. That’s how important he is .
Without reading the thread, was anyone nashing their teeth at halftime? 
Better defensive intensity this half, but also some great offensive adjustments. Getting downhill to the rim, and that’s opening up the arc a bit.
No because this team always responds in the 2nd half.Without reading the thread, was anyone nashing their teeth at halftime?
Don MacLean is less vocal than he used to be about way-too-long reviews. When he was on PAC-12 Network, his head would have exploded by now.
These 2 dorks have been tooting usc horn the all of the first half.
Maclean’s been pretty high on Nebraska in the second half. He’s a UCLA homer but isn’t big on USC.
He used to hilariously destroy officiating crews for long replay reviews, but BTN must have told him to tone it down.
If Fred can keep the roster intact the biggest need is an elite point guard who can defend and distribute. Not having Sam is going to hurt next year.
Wonder if all the dorks even pay attention to the game since some many are wrapped up on politics and other non-sense on this board.
Pathitic.
