Nice to see some balance in terms of contributions from 4 starters (Thompson was not good today) as well as lucas off the bench. Ball movement was really good rebounding needs some work. Wayne did make some good adjustments on D and with personnel in the second half so he deserves some credit. Nah. Other than during the honeymoon period, the coach gets blame for losing and credit for...well....just about nothing. Losses are the coach's fault and wins are luck or the fault of the OTHER coach. I get what you’re saying. I took off and watched the game, and loudly cheered at the bar I was at. I loved it! Of course wearing my Beaver gear. However, I thought before today, today, and most likely will tomorrow that the Beavers can do better than a Coach Tinkle, judged by his volume of work. No shame, just my personal opinion. But I give credit and savor the win, as always!

Don't look now but our Beavers have just won three PAC 12 games in a row. Holy Jumpin' Up and Down Martha!

This now looks very likely that Utah was their last game of the season. Hard to ask for a better way to end the season if that's the case - very few teams historically get to end their season with a win. Game that could change the trajectory of Lucas' career as well.

Yeah, after running into him. Look at where the Utah player is set and where Tres ends up. It is passed where he was set up. I don't think it was a flop at all. I do think that he was there a tad too late, which is why I said if he hadn't taken that last half step up -- though without that half step, Tres probably would have been able to stop with minimal contact. Again I said it was a good no call, but I don't think that was a flop at all. I consider a flop to be when hardly any contact. There was more than enough contact for an offensive foul, he just wasn't there in time. We're just gonna disagree. There is no way there is enough contact to knock the guy off his feet and onto the court about two feet backward. It's a total flop, the guy doesn't even go down hard and he's got his hands out bracing his "fall" before he's even halfway down. Tres is 6-7, 6-8 and built like a truck. If he hits you, you don't go down like that guy did. That kind of dead-fish flopping stuff by a help defender while making no attempt to play the ball is killing offensive basketball and shame on any ref who buys into that and similar acting jobs. The one thing that I haven't seen mentioned is the response of the Utah player who had the contact with Tinkle. He got up, and went back for the inbound. Not one word of protest or even an off reaction. He tried, it didn't work, so play on (for 1.6 more seconds)
