UTSA outmatched as most expected

when they sag in and double team Sullinger he's still getting the ball and doing damage, so even their primary defensive plan isn't taking that part away

and then it's opening up the outside shots, too

tough for the Buckeyes to maintain their focus--UTSA taking the air out, and on top of that, they're just not very good

FSU leads A&M 38-37

only eight minutes left

they might have to wake up a lot of the fans and let them know it's still a close game

This must be frustrating for Buckeye fans...UTSA is just standing for 20 seconds then shooting decent shots and missing. Just a terrible game to watch.

I just got home and turned it on. I'm guessing they are just spreading and taking time off? Hate that shit!

yeah they don't have the halfcourt defense, though

Buckeyes can go inside or outside and get what they want

now down 20

that's a lot of defensive stops they would need to get back in it and not a lot of time if you're taking so much off on offense

but from their perspective maybe it is better than losing by 40 if they start to speed it up

The shitty part about it, is like Non said, they don't really have an offense. They wait til it gets down to single digits on the shot clock, then they just jack up a contested 3. They just went like 4 straight possessions without making a single pass on offense lol Boring shit.

It sucks cuz A&M/FSU sucks too lol not even a 100 combined points.

Lol at their coach on that T. He is asking "what did I do?" and then they show a replay of him yelling bullshit.

They absolutely can't get inside, so the only thing they can even attempt to do is wait for a defensive lapse or launch a 3.

Did you notice Thomas at the top of the key while Craft was trying to run the clock out? Thomas was barely being covered and everyone kept throwing the ball over his head like they were playing keep away. They knew he'd chuck it up if he got his hands on it.

Thomas actually had some really nice passes today. It was the most unselfish I've ever seen him with the ball.
