Tulsa playing well today...
Cincy is playing well today.

Good game regardless of the final score. Tulsa just doesn't have the horses to keep up with a Top 10 team on road - and when that Top 10 team is playing very well.

Having seen Cincinnati play, I have a hard time believing it’s even possible for them not to foul 10 times in a half. I’m not able to see this one though

We aren’t getting to the hole enough. We should be shooting more free throws. That and rebounding and Clark are the difference this half.

Had a chance to take it to 4 and handed the ball to Cincy so it goes back to 8. We’ve still got a chance but we have to value the ball.

I don’t understand the last minute strategy. Why no hacks and see if they can hit FTs?

I think the last time I complained against officiating was the 96 Clemson game. I never complain. But those last 8 minutes could have been some of the worse calls I've seen. Tulsa got hacked at least 4 times there...

I’m proud of our guys for coming out and playing like we’re capable against a top 10 team, on the road, on their senior day, without our starting pg.

This team has improved immensely over the 2nd half of the season and it shows a lot of promise for next year and beyond.

Nothing to be ashamed of today. Now go play like this against eastern Carolina and close it out next Sunday against temple.

Typical Zelton Steed game. But yeah, there were some dirty no calls. But I won’t waste much energy on it because nothing will change.

We really should win the next 2 and sit at 4th.

Then do we get Memphis or UCF? Either is tough.

Then will it be Cinci or Wichita next game? Then the other, or Houston.

Very hard path. But we are having a bit of fun at least down the stretch.

If they keep playing the way they have been I think our chances are good on a neutral court. I think we win today’s game if it’s played anywhere but Cincinnati. We get to 20 wins and we should be NIT bound, if not then something is rotten in Denmark.

I don't seem to remember them mentioning how Uconn had to play at places like Tulsa, Tulane, and E Carolina today.

Cronin the a$$ seemed to have heartfelt congrats for the players today.

We only had 4 fouls When they got the ball with 37 seconds left.....We would have had to foul them
three times before they went to the line with us down 8.....Almost impossible situation....What I would
have done is really pressure the ball, double teaming when possible....Still, it would have resulted in
the same outcome....

Will getting o the conference final be enough, or do we have to win the conference tourny to get an ncaa bid?

We were down 80-72 with 2 minutes left and they burned 49 seconds on a single possession. We were at 0.4% win probability, so it probably didn't matter, but it felt weird to give up at that point.

You don't want to risk injury... I think the Coach saw the writing on the wall... wanted to get out of there playing a good game despite being without your PG. And just move on and win the next 2.
