Just go to YouTube and search Baylor vs Gonzaga and you can watch it live. Right now is halftime pause. Decent quality.

Thanks. Audio is very choppy but at least I can see it. I hate these streaming services.

Listen on radio. Boycott all such efforts. Let athletic department know how much you don't appreciate this playing a single game in the middle of friking nowhere on a network nobody has. This plus the lack of a decent home game before conference are really bad moves.

We have a couple of guys who I won't call out but tend to loaf and when they do we get burned. You can't do that in a high intensity game. You can get away with it against teams that are mismatched against you. Not a team like this.

Like before, our D is leaving them wide open too often. We are lucky that they missed some of those shots.

This! Ball movement that was so good to start the game and at various times throughout the 1st half is not present right now.
DanaDane

Ok, we need the "start of the game" aggressive Bears to come back out after this timeout.

Then he just dribbles the ball out of bounds.

Ugh!

I love to see a game like this for Josh O's development. He's adapting to the aggressiveness of the game, which bodes well for growth through the season.

Announcer making good points about Love's size vs our other guards
DanaDane

Yes. It's definitely noticeable. I have a feeling he's gonna be a pivotal part of our success later in the year.
