True and it would be even more difficult to see Silpe and Donahue on the court even when they "elevate".
Hopefully, there will be two good competitive games and may the best teams win although one or two of the games may come down to the occassional funny bounce of a basketball. Rivally games are just that and unusual outcomes often occur.

Banghart needs to take a page from Mitch's shot selection playbook -- so many 18-footers so far. At least some of them are going in...

Lethargic first half played by the Tigers. Need to ramp up intensity and make some adjustments.
One of Banghart's strengths in the past has been half time adjustments. I would anticipate better play in the 2nd half although you never know for sure.

Congratulations to Penn women - they played hard and tough. Tigers have some work in front of them although IvyMadness will regrettably be the decision maker.

Decent half, especially since very little production from Cannady and Llewellyn.

Pretty exciting game! Looks like it'll go down to the wire -- 50/50 coin flip.
Defensively, we just need to foul Brodeur every time he goes to his right. He's killing us right now but only shoots 54% from the FT line. Make him earn it at least.
Offensively, Llewellyn's 0-7 is pretty hard to take despite his handles and defense. Maybe give Morales some more burn in the 2nd half. On the bright side, Much looks like he's carrying over the energy he brought from the ASU game -- not just on offense but on defense (nice stands against Wang).
Anyone's game...probably will be next Saturday too.

Didn't expect Arirguzoh, Much, and Desrosiers to have such strong early performances. Llewelyn is not used to getting mugged inside by Penn on his drives--he needs to stop earlier when the help is there so that he still has a good passing angle. Stephens looking very frisky on the boards.
Penn's first 19 points came against bad defense. Easy straight-line drives, open threes, simple post-ups. After that the Tigers started to at least make them work, and Much did a good job on Wang (though getting abused by Brodeur). Aririguzoh played strong D against Brodeur low.
Not enough Morales IMO, and not enough zone mixed in, but leading at the half is pretty encouraging given how well Penn started off.

I'm convinced he's still banged up from the Lafeyette game. He took a hard spill and missed every shot he took when he came back in. He hasn't looked the same since...just a bit off.

A concern before the game was Penn driving to the basket and it is a concern. Tigers taking away 3 pt shots but......

Up six with 7:25 left. Stephens giving the kind of effort game I've been waiting for. Cannady 0-2 from the FT line and missed two great looks at threes. Aririguzoh playing well and hard, Desrosiers looking good too.
Got to stop the Penn dribble penetration better, although some help is now starting to show up.

Llewellyn is not himself. Lousy shooting, tos.

2-15 is just not acceptable. It's one thing to take an open layup or 3, but forcing tough shots on a clear off-night? Come on. Not sure why Cannady didn't get that last shot. Welp, at least we're going to OT. Still feels like a coin flip.

Hate that last-second possession. How is Cannady just standing still out of the action?

HE MUST BE HURT — 2 for 15. We are in OT. Lost 8 point lead in last 4:20.

Both teams are gassed. We need to go inside to Aririguzoh.

Two missed front-end 1-and-1s. Finally, Richie gets us a bucket. KEEP GOING TO HIM.
