Rivalry games are always interesting. Hopefully NU puts up a fight.

The game is sold out, but there A LOT of empty seats four minutes to tip. It's gonna be a late arriving crowd. And, judging by the look of things so far, it's gonna be at least 70-30 Orange.

Lots of fugly orange clothes on both levels tonight. I’m not quite surrounded, but it’s close.

Bouie is tough! Nice layup

Great pass by Spencer to Kopp for three

Decent play so far. I wonder how long before they just start feeding the giant?

8 points allowed in 7 minutes. And we switch to zone.

IL next to me complaining they can’t get a break with the refs right after they literally mug boo on a no call.

Open three point shots by Young and Turner are not good offense. Get the ball to the right people and in the right places where they can score.

Go ‘Cats!

Wow three second violation, when was the last time you saw that called?

 

[DaCat]

Nance hits a three.

Young missing both his free throws is just another symbol for this season.

12 seconds on the clock before halftime, we draw up a play. Basically Spencer gets the ball, dribbles around, and tries to drive in the lane. The shot doesn't go, end of half. Nice play, coaches.

Jesse White tumblers in the House.
