Why do we keep making no look passes to a 5 who couldn't catch a ball if you were standing beside him and handed it to him. Sheesh.

Thamba really needs to use his body more. He always just goes up soft and straight up.

I'm not late on my comments; my iPad video feed apparently is running 45-60 seconds behind.

6-5 bears. Just need to get into a rhythm offensively. I predict a 12-2 run in the near future to push to double digits.

I've given up on him ever learning how to go up strong with the ball at the rim.

Slow start, but this is how it goes for most 1 seeds. Illinois was only up 6 with about 5 minutes to go in the first half, won by 30+. Nice to be able to ease into the Tourney and get those nerves out. Can't mess around for too long, though.

The problem was he left the guy wide open for 3 and had to close out hard. He's not agile enough to close hard on a guard and keep him in front. Had no shot.

We didn't need two VERY early fouls on Vital - JTT needs to step up for him

Yes, but the "glass ceiling" breaker announcer failed to mention it.

This is why no one is immune in a tournament. They get used to the style of play their conference officials allow, but get in the NCAA and have no control over that, Big 12 officials allow pretty physical play. These guys are not gonna have any of that today.

Thought maybe we would see BU come out hungry! Not yet but it's still early.

Thamba gets crushed on the rebound...no foul called resulting in a turnover.

This "glass ceiling breaker" is almost making me yearn for Beth Mowins.
