Mano Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 If they can eliminate the bad turnovers and hit their free throws, they could be decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utenation Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I hope UCLA continues to kick UNLV’s ass. Many of their fans still think they are God’s gift to basketball. I’ve never seen so much hype for an irrelevant program. Their fans think their coach should be fired after 1 loss and Wooden will come back from the dead to coach their team for free.

Chad Sexington Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Utes look like exactly what they are, a young and enthusiastic entertaining team. They’ll make a lot of mistakes but will be fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utenation Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Gotta say it sucks to see Tillman play for UNLV. Was on his way to being a star at Utah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorcho Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 pleasantly surprised at Utah being 3-0, but the competition has been schools that are probably +75 rpi or worse. They closed off the upper deck for this game, I wonder if that will be the new norm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAC MAN Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Buffs beat San Diego by a good margin. I like what I'm seeing from the Buffs so far this season on the defensive side of things and other than two players' efforts, the effort level was good. It was good to see Dallas Walton (35) back on the court and I hope his knee cooperates with him but I'm not expecting much from him until conference play. I'm hoping to see Wright IV's (25) eventual replacement at PG emerge during non-conference play because Wright is probably headed to the NBA after this season and given the beating he has taken on his body, he really needs to go IMHO. His backup, Gatling (0), is also a senior hence the concern for PG for the Buffs next season and the new PG could be a freshman taking a redshirt this season. Bey (1) has improved his game especially 3 point shooting. He's probably gone to the NBA after this season and his 3 pt shooting so far helps his case for going pro after this season. Schwartz (5) keeps improving and at this rate, he will possibly be CU's go to player next year. I'd like to see Kountz (2) step it up a bit but I'm just not seeing him as the PG replacement for Wright & Gatling next year. I noticed Boyle might be paying more attention to him at this point. I did call out Seiwart's (23) effort during the game since Battey (21) got his second foul midway in the 1H which means a trip to the bench under Boyle until the 2H. Didn't catch the Buffs WBB game against Wisconsin but the Buffs won that one and it seems like with new PGs recruited by the coach finally taking over, there's some energy with that women's team. I think this season could be a make or break for the WBB coach for the Buffs. They travel to Wyoming tomorrow and then to CSU next week and both schools will be up for any game in any sport against CU. MBB Buffs take on UC-Irvine next Monday. Right now, I believe the Buffs are solid at four positions & sixth man (Gatling appears to be a lock for sixth man since I can't see Kountz or Daniels (3) giving that kind of spark off the bench and SG remains a concern at this point.

PAC MAN Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Tonight's games: Southern Utah @ UCLA Prairie View A&M @ Cal UC Irvine @ CU At first glance, you would think Irvine is just another team but that team won 31 games last season and beat Kansas State in the tourney. Three starters are also back. Oregon beat those guys last March but that's last season. I'm expecting a challenge tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAC MAN Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 That was a very good performance by the Buffs tonight against a 31 win team last season who beat KSU in the tourney. Buffs only committed six turnovers versus forcing 21. I was on the fence whether this Buffs squad was truly a Top 25 teams and after tonight's game, I'm much more comfortable saying the Buffs are a Top 25 team. Next Buffs game will be against Wyoming in Vegas on Sunday. GO BUFFS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBug708 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 UCLA hasn't played anyone of note, but our defense looks pretty impressive. And the most impressive part is that it's mostly with the same crew that didn't do anything for Alford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBug708 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 If UCLA can limp into bowl eligibility and land the Vegas Bowl, I might make the trip to Vegas to watch UNC and the Bowl game. I wanted to pull the trigger on season tickets for basketball, but these 8/830 start times are killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
