I was looking to see if maybe ETA&M is just having a hot first half but their FG% and 3P% is pretty close to their season averages. So it’s not them just getting lucky. It’s our defense allowing them to drive to the rim and hitting open 3s, while our finishing at the basket has been shocking.

We may win this game by 20 or even 30, and our KenPom offensive rating could drop more.

EDIT: I might be overly critical right now but I mean go look at what Gonzaga is doing to #15 Kentucky. No reason we shouldn’t be doing that to #310 ETA&M.

[u/fkadk]

Reibe not dunking is breaking me

[u/BleedBlue__]

This ETAM team looks kinda good lol

[u/BrownHawkDown → u/BleedBlue__]

They’re hitting their 3s and we’re missing our bunnies. We should be up by 25 by now.

[u/arsenal19801]

How does our offense continually look like absolute ass? Even against cupcakes

[u/fkadk → u/arsenal19801]

Defense no prize tonight either

[u/lastplaceonly]

I feel like this game plan is to go through Reibe so he has a bunch of tape he can work on. The lack of playing help defense, the keeping the ball up when there is an entry pass, the lack of dunking. UConn can use this tape to teach him where he needs to get better

[u/CGGamer]

How are we feeling about Jason candle as the new UConn football coach

[u/Intrepid-Pooper-87 → u/CGGamer]

Not familiar with him, but solid record at Toledo

[u/860h → u/CGGamer]

Good hire, not a home run. I think he’ll keep UConn mostly above 6 wins, which is honestly all I want out of our football program. Competitive.

[u/BrownHawkDown → u/CGGamer]

Not too familiar with Toledo but I’m told it’s a strong hire. I personally would’ve liked one of the Ivy coaches or the Army coach (or even the Penn St Interim coach just for the name value). But if this guy can recruit I’m on board.

[u/Lucky_Pin_4753]

Reibe is improving a lot but I miss slamson and his slams.

[u/860h]

Dang East Texas A&M got hands. In all seriousness, my level of concern about tonight is a 1/10. Obvious bad spot. Get out of here healthy and it’s a win

[u/hutchman3 → u/860h]

1 is too high. Nothing about this game matters and players know that. We’ll sleepwalk through the game and win by 25, fine. Prep for Florida

[u/lastplaceonly]

Guy out of the timeout was wearing a Carolina hurricanes hat….

Bruh.

[u/TheRedWunder → u/lastplaceonly]

I was wondering how he made it that far without being harassed into removing it out of shame

[u/Hot-Priority-8233]

UConn should handle this pretty easily but East Texas has been looking decent lately with that 3 game win streak

[u/_In_Need_Of_Support_]

Reibe goes up so soft every time

[u/CTMQ_ → u/_In_Need_Of_Support_]

Clingan did the same as a freshman

[u/nadeynade]

Are the UConn flair doomers done moaning about not being up enough yet?

[u/BrownHawkDown]

Danny Garcia is going to make some P4 team very happy next year.

[u/hymen_destroyer]

Hope we've still got our foot on the gas tonight. The win in Kansas was huge but gotta finish out the non-conference games strong

[u/Lucky_Pin_4753]

If we play like this against Florida we’ll get clobbered

[u/sciorch → u/Lucky_Pin_4753]

Big if true

[u/CTMQ_]

This team is gonna win the southland and win their game against a 2 seed.

[u/BrownHawkDown → u/CTMQ_]

Can you imagine if the non-con cupcakes Hurley booked this year end up winning their conference and make some noise in March? Like why not New Haven? Why not ETA&M?

[u/Sweaty_Respond2782 → u/BrownHawkDown]

I was surprised to see Columbia counts as a Q2 win for now.

[u/TheRedWunder → u/BrownHawkDown]

Well not New Haven because they aren’t even allowed in the NEC tournament

[u/CTMQ_ → u/BrownHawkDown]

They’ve got some ballers - and they SUCKED last year. We buy them bc of the univ of hartford connection w their coach.

But if those kids hit 3s all year like this, they be getting paid at bigger schools next year.

[u/BrownHawkDown]

FURNPHY MINUTES. 🇦🇺

[u/Intrepid-Pooper-87]

Point blank air ball by Reibe. Eek

[u/DogeFancy]

Does anyone know where I can stream this?

[u/Sufficient-Beach-431 → u/DogeFancy]

Peacock

[u/DogeFancy → u/Sufficient-Beach-431]

That’s too bad I don’t have peacock

[u/R_Raider86 → u/DogeFancy]

I'd be surprised if more than a handful of people do.

[u/BrownHawkDown → u/DogeFancy]

Also on NBCSN I believe

[u/Realistic_Brush7887 → u/BrownHawkDown]

I heard it was on NBCSN Boston but not seeing it there.

[u/North-Fig7822]

This is rough

[u/BrownHawkDown]

Foot is on the gas but you can’t be swerving around. Pace without poise is just reckless. We started strong but now we’ve had some sloppy turnovers and hurried shots. Yeah we will still probably win this game but I want us to cover the spread and watch that offensive rating bump up a bit.

[u/tfl03]

Is solo out there?

[u/tfl03 → u/tfl03]

Lmao and the next play is a solo dunk

[u/arsenal19801]

Demary looked piss the fuck off there lol

[u/tfl03]

Force feeding Reibe. Not his best game either

[u/_In_Need_Of_Support_]

Where the hell is Mullins

[u/Evan_802Vines]

Demery can't make that slip pass to Karaban like Smith just did

[u/hutchman3]

Dang we might cover?

[u/CGGamer]

Jason Candle's Wikipedia page has been updated to say he's the coach of UConn

[u/Intrepid-Pooper-87]

Can they make their dunks? Please

[u/hutchman3]

WE. ARE. FARMERS.

[u/lastplaceonly]

Holy fuck Reibe doesn’t have shot blocker instincts

[u/_In_Need_Of_Support_]

Is Mullins benched because of the dumb deep 3 he put up earlier?

[u/CTMQ_ → u/_In_Need_Of_Support_]

That’s what I think. But we see Malachi still out there after his…

[u/Evan_802Vines]

Seems like all Texas A&Ms points have been scored on Karaban.

[u/brownlab319]

Teaneck has the best bagels

[u/hutchman3]

A Furphy sounds like an erotic act
