St Mary's didnt cover themselves in glory late in the game and in the handshake line. Get your damn hands off of our players. Geeze, go talk to your own players. Their HC looked pissed at Agee too and I guarantee you he had nothing to do with it. Griffin doing his thing lol.

So weird seeing a team give up down 13 with a minute left in March Madness after seeing what A&M did a decade ago

Their coach mailed it in with 1:30 to play. Game wasn't over. Great win by the good guys.

Didn't see what the Gaels were so pissed about. Oune player had to be dragged off the court.
Game got kinda nasty towards the end.

Damn, zero post-game commentary (yet).
Zipped right into Michigan talk.

We have a chance against UH if Cenac plays like an AAU baller, because Agee will get in his grill and his head.

If Maurauskas had shown that much fight during the game, SMU might have had a chance.


Not impressed. Who knows what is wrong with him. But it didn't look like he left everything out there. He seemed fine springing up from his chair to fight.


He banged his head pretty hard on the base of the basket in the first half. I wouldn't be surprised if he ways playng with a concussion.

Media love helps the program with all the young kids and their eyeballs glued to the screens right now.

Plus it's technically an upset.
And March Madness loves to gush on all the upsets

Didn't look THAT hard

Great defensive game all around. Vinson gave some solid mins tonight. Was fun watching ruben get hot for a few mins there as well.

THAT'S BUCKYBALL BABY

The first half sure was.

Bucky pulled back on the press that last 10 minutes or so of the 2nd half, just to not foul them and give them free-throws.

Sure. But also the ball movement on offense stopped. Completely. Did anyone outside of Agee even attempt a 3 in the second half? Not saying you gotta go balls to the wall all 40 minutes but when you've CLEARLY got better athletes than the other team……run em down. Wear em out. Second half a little too reminiscent of Buzz ball.

Nevertheless, great win and Bucky is already WAY ahead of schedule. Just being here was gravy. Now we got us a tourney win. I can rest easy knowing this year was a total success. Different feeling from the last couple of years.

Our best slasher by far beyond Hill who is shorter therefore disadvantaged down there. Dibba is tall enough to make contested shots off the backboard while slashing.

I can see why SMC players were upset. You could tell they weren't in our class within 2 minutes of the start of the game. Way too slow, their size was negated by our quickness and they struggled with the press more than any team we've played. Simply no match.

That is not good advice. We could've easily missed a bunch of quick shots, and the increased possessions was the only way Saint Mary's could get back in the game. Needed to run shot-clock.

They showed the tail end of it

He was definitely yapping but you couldn't tell what. He turned and walked away then got yanked, from behind, by a pissed off underperforming Lurch

Part of it was Bucky was running the clock.

Unlike say Sumlin v. UCLA... Bucky knows how to game manage tempo if we are up a really good chunk. Every possession was on average 30 more seconds gone, seemingly. There's a reason St. M only scored 50. Super smart by Bucky.

Yep. Minimize their possessions as much as possible.

Plus keep them running around everywhere while they're on D.
They looked gassed.
Milk the clock while we're on offense, and keep their feet moving the entire time.
Smart.

We outclassed these guys but they ARE D1 athletes. Their strength is their guards and they clearly overplayed the perimeter in the second half. Their stud fish did nothing defensively but sit in Reuben's jock. Well defended 3s would've done nothing but give them a chance.

That's a great point. It wasn't like we were doing hold the ball, everyone don't move and play hero ball at end of clock like buzz...


Guys were moving constantly, wearing them out. So much better.

Quite an accomplishment for a year 1 that started from scratch. Loved the defense and, at times, the offense. Can't figure why we seemed to be beating our head against the wall driving to the rim most of the second half but can't complain.
Draw fouls???

I've been to a few of their games. They can be dominant, but also lackadaisical. I think our guard rotation will love the challenge, but we don't have an answer for Tugler. Gonna need good minutes from Dibba and Clemence.

I think Clemence just played in himself, if he plays out of his mind we have a solid chance
