This second half seems to have been officiated fairly well thus far.

UConn is not going to make a comeback unless they start working to get better shots.

I guess UM is conceding they won't win big in football anymore, so they've decided to pour more money into basketball. OSU has chosen the opposite. No one is succeeding at both sports in the same season during this phase of NIL.

UConn shot just 33% in the first half, and Reed with just 5 points on 2-7 shooting. They're going to need him to get going to win this game.

UConn has a good defensive gameplan and strategy. UM has made 10+ 3s in all of their prior tourney games, so that's one big reason the game is close. UConn is going to need to execute better offensively in the second half and hope they can hold them down on defense similar to the first half.

UM obviously thinks they can just drive into players and get foul calls.

I was going to say, it was crazy they didn't call that foul initially. Lendeborg gets the star treatment from the refs.

Reed was out with foul trouble for a little while, obviously UConn needs him in there as much as possible.

Huge for UConn to hit the 3 out of the timeout.

Lendeborg gets in a little elbow shove in the back of UConn to create space near the basket, obviously no foul on that play.

I had to rewind it and see it again. UConn player had very poor technique, he turned his back to the basket and put his arms around Gayle, but he did not gain an advantage as he did not restrict Gayle's movement and did not affect the play.

What? UConn in position for the box out, Gayle gets the rebound & draws the foul?!?

That just goes to show you how big of an advantage getting into the bonus is. You can get 2 points for any bad call that goes against the opponent 90 feet from the basket.

Wow. UM gets a 1-and-1 after UConn tied them up on a rebound.

Lendeborg might be on steroids or something. He acts really emotional, and not always when he should be. He clearly fouled UConn and was very adamant in disagreeing with it. I realize lots of players protest fouls, but it's irritating when guys protest obvious fouls.

So they're saying lots of UM alums are street walkers? Did they ask what their going rate is to determine the prevailing wage?

Losing Cupps, Chatman, White and Royal means they need multiple bench additions now to help cover the 1-3 spots. The first and most critical decision is finding the right starting guard. After that, now they need some quality depth in the backcourt, at the wing, and in the post. They ought to...

Let's be real, being able to buy the best players in the portal is a major advantage that no one saw coming for May at UM. I was a May skeptic because he had a team at FAU that followed up the Final Four run with a huge disappointment of a season with basically the same core group of players...

Fast forward another year and ... Scotty Middleton is going back to the transfer portal. He just spent his Junior year at Tulane. Sophomore season was at Seton Hall and of course he was with OSU his freshman season. Probably going to make it 4 different schools in 4 years.

How could you miss pulling the fire alarm last night?
