just saw score. is roach injured now too?

No, he was just terrible today. Every time we appeared poised to pull away, he missed an open shot to start a WVU run.

Yes! Celestine makes the 1st.

Not sure. His shot needs to go on the IR though.

0-6 from the field, 0-2 from 3, 1 point, 1 assist, 1 TO

He's usually mediocre. He was legitimately terrible today.

We have been clutch from the line tonight up until the last couple of trips

Omier outfought again.

We'll always have the St. Johns miracle.

Outfought? The opposing team has automatic rebounding position on a free throw. It was a credit to him and his rebounding ability that he even had a shot at that.

We'll call it the $Million Dollar Miracle.

We should be embarrassed he's on our roster

In fairness to Roach that St Johns heave is the only reason this teams currently on the right side of the bubble

Well I appreciate the extra bb. Good job bears and CSD

The St. John's and Kansas wins are our saving grace. And both required near miracle comebacks.

But this team rarely loses games it should win, which has helped as well.

BEARS WIN!!!!!!!!

Good, gritty win for the good guys. We didn't play a great game, but we competed hard and made the plays we needed to pull it out.

Let this be the start of a 6 game winning stretch for the Bears!

Time to pull the Lady Bears across the finish line.

Ugly win is a win.

Let's see some magic on Monday night. We are due to bounce back on our 3s.

That and a clock operator who gave us a few extra seconds for Roach to get downcourt.

84% from the FT line was huge tonight

We've beaten 2 of the top 16 seeds that were announced today.

I was gonna say the same thing. We're a streaky shooting team from 3. We were off today, so hopefully that means we will be on fire Monday night.

Bottom line - taking care of biz home win. Wish we wouldn't have had to waste the extra energy in OT with Arizona in 2 days.

They just expended a lot of energy in a tough home loss to Houston, too. I would bet that's about a wash.

Big win. Need to just string together wins now. Beating AZ Monday coming off an emotional home-loss to UH would be ginormous.

Another gutty win…my blood pressure does not like!

If I was to guess, this is part of the rumored disjointment on the team. Roach just hasn't fit the system at all and doesn't look engaged as a role player (which is where he can play his best basketball). Regressed from a solid player at Duke to a guy who can't do anything here unfortunately. Could have scooped up Small and Roberts for the price of Roach.

AZ can be had. They are still the same sloppy, lackidasical AZ team they've always been, the big 12 has just allowed them to get away with it bc they have decent talent. They can't maintain intensity for a full game, unfortunately neither can we. Wouldn't be shocked at either outcome, but Bu can win it.

That said, it isn't a great matchup for BU as AZ is one of the few teams in the leauge with semi skilled bigs who probably feast against our current line ups.

Where is whitetrash? It sounds loud in there now.

I was there but stayed off the thread. Not quite as loud as KU game but plenty loud when it needed to be.

We ran hot and cold all day, but so did they. And our FT shooting was the difference.

It was almost like he thought he'd run out the clock that way

We never play through our post. Haven't since motley was here. Just dumb basketball

Omier is by far our most reliable source of offense, and we refuse to force-feed him. It's infuriating.

Dude was bailing his layups tonight. Made all but 1
