Did I miss something? Why no Thamba? Seems so early in the year to have only a 7 man rotation.

Clark is struggling badly. 3/11. Put him on the baseline.
True that

Is it just me, or is this Washington team really long at almost every position?

The guy coached at Syracuse so he's basically constructed Syracuse West.

Unless Thamba has improved drastically from last year, these Washington bigs would eat him alive. Freddie, Vital and Tristan are solid defenders and they're struggling at times

These refs are incredibly horrible. We were fouled about 5 times on the last two possessions.

Man they suddenly can't miss.

Sit Clark down.
DanaDane

Ok, I hate blaming refs but we're getting no calls in a physical game when we have the shots around the rim and they are getting all kinds of calls when we use the same level of physicality. What gives.

Wide open, uncontested shots will allow that, unfortunately.

OMG... even when Clark scores he turns it over.

Please, don't even throw the ball inside any more. It's just a turnover waiting to happen.

These refs are pitiful. Getting us ready for Big 12 play.

Early in the season...Clark's gotta get his game back after being out so long.

Calling that with 4 secs on the shot clock at this part of the game is awful.

Refs need to call it the same at both ends

Clark has no interest in shooting. Unfortunately, at this point, he is an offensive liability.

Whistles in their pockets on this end of the floor.
DanaDane

How is the play so physical underneath on our end with NO calls?
DanaDane

We need someone to bury a 3 here or we're in deep doodoo.

Lots of contact and no foul?

Oh wow that was a bad flop. LOL

Is it just me or does it always seem like Baylor tanks these things at the end? Not a bad criticism. It just seems like we're tired when other teams catch their second wind.
DanaDane

Good god put Clark on the bench.

What the hell is Clark doing?

Live and die from the 3 ..sometimes offense loses rhythm when buckets don't fall. And the inside game has been getting pounded by their length

Yeah Clark is not himself. He's playing scared
BearFan33

They had called about 7 fouls in a row against us

Hate to say it but Clark has killed us tonight.

Stewart for them is damn good.

I'm not even convinced Clark fits into this offense.

Freddie fouled and no call. Garbage.
rudylaw

And it's tied... wow.

What a meltdown.
