Relax, jesus.

We have freshman all over the floor as well.
Sorry for commenting something obvious to anyone watching the game. I'll try harder. It really is deflating to the old farts here in Mckale though.
No need to comment if it's so obvious, then, is it?

Does anyone else think this looks like Romar ball? uptemo, athletic, lack of defense. Fun to watch but it has its problems.

They won't be good at the beginning of the season. They are playing like 27 freshman. Of all years, this one is where they are least deserving of their preseason top 5 ranking. Them being ranked ahead of Wichita State is the biggest joke I've ever seen.
That many talented freshmen is sorta like herding cats this early in the season. But I still like hating on them. Just can't help myself.

Um, has Arizona ever started the year off as a lock down defense? This looks like a typical Arizona defense to start the year. Does not look like your typical offense.

Exactly. Takes a lot longer to learn the defense. Plus, UMBC has at least 10 points from ridiculousness, naturally

Ummm, that's a bit contradictory. While it's not GOOD at all, there's plenty of opportunities for us to tip our hat and say, nothing we coulda done on that one.

We will win by 25-30 because they won't keep this up

UA 70% FGs,UMBC 53%

Total ridiculousness, but ya gotta give 'em props for pullin' it off. If it lasts I'll be surprised ... won't be the first time.

Too much iso ball from UA. And the defense needs to pick up. We need to play more Miller ball.
