Sprinkle Era Begins Game Thread

[Donn Beach]

Sure weren't very competitive against UCLA. Maybe UCLA is real good, but I don't know that game was ever really very close was it? I barely watched any, but it just never felt like when I would turn the channel that we were ever going to threaten them. Osobor was 4 for 11 from the field and 6 of 11 at the line. He was 4 of 8 on November 5th and 2 of 4 on November 22nd. In all the other six games he shot under 50% from the field. Not great for a post player. Shooting 55% from the line on the year. I thought I kept reading about how great he was and was going to save the program? Seems to me like he might have been a guy that actually belonged at the school that wasn't in a Power 4 Conference.

Well It was 45-43 with eleven minutes to go, but yeah, they were terrible shooting, Osobor's eight turnovers didn't help

Good point. As I said, I barely watched. But every time I turned it we were down multiple possessions, and the majority of the last 8 or so minutes it was double digits. So, that stretch from the eleven minute mark to the next time I turned it on must have been bad. We hit a free throw to "cut it" to 11. I never turned it back.
