Down 9 with 8 minutes left. Even if we don't pull off a win here, we are much improved from that awful three game WSU-WYO-UP strech.

Hey, hit three deep ones in a row and it's still a game, 58-65 with 3:30 left.

Don't breathe on a Mobley, it's a foul.

Lucas got fouled going for that loose ball - not sure how that doesn't get whistled.

I liked the beavers effort, talent wise we are JV compared to the Trojans. They are just to tall and long for us. I think living and dying by the 3 was our only chance

We hung with them for ~30 minutes but just didn't shoot the ball well enough or rebound well enough to keep up later on. Really liked the intensity on defense late, we forced a lot of turnovers with the press and high pressure defense. I didn't think it was likely we'd steal two wins against them, of all the teams I've seen play in the conference this year USC has been the best one IMO.

USC seems to have the most talent in the league. However, they need to shoot 3’s and FT’s better or they will make a quick exit in the tourney.

FT shooting kept us in both games against them and was key to our win last week. SC shot the 3 ball OK today, quite a few of their makes being open 2nd chance looks which killed us.

A couple guys off their bench hit 5 of them today, but Peterson is their only consistent 3 pt shooter for the whole year and he was 1-7 today.

This is one game where Kylor is so obviously missed. We just don't have a mobile big man with hops - and USC is just so tall. I thought we played them well given that we were going to get their best shot after catching them a bit by surprise in Corvallis. Still, a good effort against a team that could make a run to the Sweet 16 if they can run their offense a bit better.

Good effort or not, you can’t expect to win a game where ya give up over 20 offensive rebounds. And it’s not like we don’t have enough size to screen someone out. Ironically Ethan was the only player for us to manage more than 5 boards ugh
