Offensive boards are killing us.

They have a really good front court

Not a good start defensively... it's not often the other team has 10 points at the first media timeout

This game seems to be going through a rotation of 2 phases.

1. Both teams score at will.
2. Gonzaga scores at will.
3. Repeat

The officiating is crap.

43-33 Gonzaga at the half

Wisconsin got within 5 but Evans took an awful shot and the Zags finished on a 5-0 run. You can tell it’s still early in the season for these young guys.

Keep in mind Hughes was off the court at the end of the half with two fouls. Taylor looked good with 10 first half points.

Jay Williams and Doug Gottlieb were previewing the Cincinnati-Gonzaga Championship Game in the halftime show.

Talk about disrespect.

Nankivil has missed a wide open dunk, a wide open 15 footer and a wide open three to start the half

58-52 with 8:58 to go

Refs have missed a few fouls on Wisconsin and the Badgers have taken advantage of the no calls.
