Missed the NU game. Just saw the replay of the screw job by refs at the end. Unreal!!! Can’t believe CC wasn’t more irate.

It was even worse if you saw the whole game, PSU was in the double bonus in the first half in the first 8 minutes. They were in the bonus very quickly in second half too. And we had 2 fouls on Barnhizer, Leach, and 3 on Berry quickly changing complexion of the game early. Luckily our Frosh came in and were not phased (though they had them in foul trouble as well.

I feel like we haven't really done that much this year tho, even against the teams that press really hard we've not tried to make them pay more than a handful of times that I've seen. That's really the best way to break the press imho, score a quick basket every time they try it.

The coaches tend to want them playing under control. Go too fast and whole game breaks down for them

Not sure Mullins can handle Baldwin... but the thing to worry about it Baldwin taking the ball from our primary ballhandler, whomever it may be.

That Pratt kid on Northeastern (#3) was able to beat Mullins off the dribble and get to the glass and score at least twice. In fact we couldn't defend him without help.

Kern is a good 6'6" player for PSU.

We may run into foul trouble since both teams go inside for most of their shots.

Plus Mullins tends to get a lot of fouls called on him

Why was Nicholson in at the end?

I think he was out of position in the motion, but I totally understand why they wanted him, Brooks, and Nick in at the end for the dunks and put backs. Cats tied it up that way before the refs decided they couldn't allow that.

It if I’m PSU and I see him on the court, I cover the other 4 and leave him open. He gets the inbounds and then gets fouled.
I still don’t get it.

If I was PSU, I would have let him get the ball and immediately foul him, which I think they were trying to do but the refs did not call it. I would have Leach, Berry, Marty, Barney and then another shooter.

Well he did have 7 assists tonight. Also if he can get it inside he can dunk it. Or some one shoots it and he gets a put back. I think he was there to create space and PSU shut down other alternatives and then even if they call it you have to depend on him to hit the FTs.

Plus you realize we had 5 guys with 4 fouls? Foul calls were 30 to 17 (and one of the 17 was a tech) And it was even worse at the beginning of both halfs.

I agree.

But to be clear, even tho they f*cked NU for two straight hours, I hope they get it from someone else.

But in the event that they all got it from NU, I assume student health services is well stocked with ceftriaxone. (I googled it.)

It’s treatable, kids. Don’t be embarrassed. Lots of people get VD and this appointment is confidential.
