One thing that was different this game was in previous games rebounding seemed to be more a byproduct of other team shooting 3s and long offensive rebounds by other team. This game it was other team getting offensive rebounds in the paint. That’s because they were driving by the on ball defender and other players needed to help. The help defenders had to come off their men and it put them in poor box out position. If we did a better job defending the driver, we would have been in better rebounding position. True, but also plenty of times they just weren’t aggressive enough. Announcer pointed out one time late in game when Kk, TT and Hollins were there and no one aggressively went for rebound. And that was not isolated instance as I was yelling at TV throughout the game. Not going to get too worked up about it, but PSU wanted game more. Beavers never really imposed their will on them. They seemed to think when they got up double digits in second half PSU would roll over and it didn’t happen. As someone pointed out, plenty of teaching moments from this game. Just a little disappointing that with experienced core there were so many of those teaching moments.

Pathetic performance by a pathetic coach. This team is going to lose a lot of games and tinkle is going to get rich producing nothing other than a gp2 year tourney bid he had nothing to do with. Keep extending that contract barnes Good to see you’re an equal opportunity negativity machine!

Keep extending that contract barnes As demonstrated by another OSU basketball team (with coaching and talent bone-fides), days like this can happen against supposedly easy opponents. Beaver WBB (#1 RPI team in the friggin' country) struggled yesterday against a 2-5 Liberty University. One game, good or bad, does not a season make.

They were up by 19 with 13 minutes to go. They let them slowly creep back, but the game was basically over at that point. To PSU’s credit, they didn’t buy that idea and kept chipping away to make it look close at the end, but it was never really in doubt after that point.
Not much killer instinct shown by OSU, but hard to complain about putting away a team before the pseudo-3rd quartet is through.

I am thinking back, just in the last couple of years, and my frustration with us not running any set plays on offense and not playing any defense. I am actually pleased with what I am seeing this year as well as the crisper passing with fewer turnovers. I can't bang on the coaching staff too much until I see us regress. I looked at the roster and we have some young talent to work with. So, I am going to take a wait and see. Ethan is a sophomore and he was great on the offensive end today, Hollins is becoming an animal on the boards - he does not get the ball ripped out of his hands and he is driving and shooting three's with more confidence. Lucas is my pick to replace Tinkle scoring - but in a different manner, because when he shoots his three's, it is a thing of beauty. Silva looks serviceable and Morris - Smith is an athlete. I am sure there are more. Also, for the first time today - it looked like we had some great point play. I am all good for now.

PSU definitely came looking to steal a game from a PAC-12 school, but at no point was anyone in that building concerned about losing. As beaverstever noted, we were up 19 in the second half. Even late it was clear there wasn't enough time for PSU to complete a comeback - despite their hustle and some helpful missed FTs by the Beavs. This was a classic December matchup with a team that we could overlook - but unlike some of those in past years, we shot well and got the victory. I had a good time in Gill and at least tried to forget about the other game this weekend.

I had a good time in Gill and at least tried to forget about the other game this weekend. I wasn't concerned either, until I was. At the 53 second mark the vikings had the ball and were 2 buckets away from at least tying the game. It looked like their press was overwhelming the inbounds strategy of the home team. It took a late foul call on their guy coming from behind hunt to steal the ball and hunt making the free throws, and them missing shots to steal it. I dont think beavs get that call in conference and breaking the press against pressing teams is still a problem as it was last year.

Pushed the lead to about 20 early 2nd half then apparently went into cruise control and it got way to close for comfort... gotta clean that up.
Rebounding not great, free throw shooting remains not so great...
But I remain pretty impressed with our overall ball movement and shooting. mostly. We shot like 55% or so (not bothering to look it up right now).
Kelley has had a bad pair of games. He needs to get back in his groove.
And yes, Tinkle is still the best player in the Pac... ahem.
