I like us by ten. 30+ from Martinelli.

 

[EagerFan]

Got my bobble head!

 

[its_the_sauce]

Going to get a headache looking at those Oregon shoes

 

[SDakaGordie]

Switch misfires again and again.

 

[EagerFan]

First impressions, their 32 is a cheap shot guy who fouls and flails. Already tired of him.

Cats are playing hurried.

Page’s header freaked me out, but I guess hes

Jake West with the fast break dish straight outta an old And1 vid

 

[Hungry Jack]

Decent crowd today given the Ducks. Must be the bobblehead.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Cats playing well so far On defense getting some nice turnovers.

 

[EagerFan]

Cats missing a lot of shots. Glorious dunk blocking by Angelo.

 

[jensberg]

Is Page okay he went out and then he hasn't come back

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Is Page okay he went out and then he hasn't come back

He had that monster block that led to a fast break like two minutes ago

 

[SouthportCat]

We are the better team so far. Need to keep pushing tempo.

 

[AdamOnFirst]

Page has improved markedly on defense. He’s rounding into shape.

 

[jensberg]

If Nick could shoot today we would be up by at least 10 right now

 

[SDakaGordie]

Hapless shooting everywhere.

 

[SouthportCat]

If all we did was make the wide open shots we’d be in the bubble conversation. I cannot recall a team getting this many uncontested threes and just laying brick.

 

[jensberg]

Hapless shooting everywhere.

True nobody is sitting well but Nick has had the most shots so far by far

 

[SDakaGordie]

Pathetic play all around to let Oregon get all the momentum.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

The half can't come quickly enough.

 

[jensberg]

This could get ugly. They have been playing the whole second half of the first half without two of their key Frontline players. They will both be back in the second half.

 

[SDakaGordie]

Nothing to like about how this game is trending.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

Taking a page out of Baz”s book. We stinks.

 

[Hungry Jack]

The Drought Monitor shows WRA dark red

The balding white guy?

 

[SDakaGordie]

Why do we seemingly lose focus so much at home?

 

[jensberg]

The balding white guy who is 6'11 just makes a 30 ft 3-pointer to finish the half how sad

 

[EagerFan]

The balding white guy?

Yeah.

 

[SDakaGordie]

The balding white guy who is 6'11 just makes a 30 ft 3-pointer to finish the half how sad

It’s not sad; he’s an excellent player.

 

[EagerFan]

Cats were doing well pushing penetration and drawing fouls early. This shift to settling for ten foot jumpers hasn’t paid out.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

At least there is much more activity here when we suck.

 

[Baz = Heisman]

So many missed shots - gross

 

[SouthportCat]

RIP Gelo’s minutes today after that backdoor dunk brain fart. Maybe I get to see some Max Green now. (Who am I kidding?)

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Weak first half shooting- Martinelli is 1 for 8 and 0 for 2 for 3, Page is 0 for 3 from 3 pt. Please, no more 3 pt attempts form Page, he should be shooting inside. Hope Cats follow suit of previous games and come back for a strong 2nd half. Go Cats!

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

It’s not sad; he’s an excellent player.

White balding guy is killing us.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

So many missed shots - gross

Missed you last game.

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

Nice run, and we're back in it.

 

[jensberg]

Fantastic 17 to 2 run

 

[Purple Pete]

Clayton being Clayton, 3!!!

 

[bringbacktherantboard]

That push-off call on Reid was BS. The Oregon player totally sold it.
