If I didn't think we were going to be down to 4 players due to foul trouble, I'd be optimistic. Great game so far with the Beavs up 26-25 with 7 minutes left in the first half. Playing some defense, hitting some hoops, but drumbeat of whistles not good there.

44-42 zona at the half - best half Beavs have played all season.

What a fantastic effort in the first half! 44-42 UA at the half, but end the half on a nice run capped off with Warith hitting a near buzzer beating 3. If it wasn't for our lack of depth and interior defense tonight I'd actually think about a possible upset... but we all know how our 2nd halves of games have gone this year. Still a fun half to watch. Nice to see us actually hitting from deep some too.

Regardless of the outcome, I am putting this one in the moral victory category. I know we always hear coaches and players say they don't do moral victories. But when you're as desperate for anything positive as the Beavs are I think an exception should be made. Too bad they can't play this well against a team that they have a chance of beating.

Well... the 2nd half went about as I expected. 4th game in 7 days with only 7 guys playing is gonna wear on them. We looked exhausted in the 2nd half. Honestly showed a lot of good things in this game but just don't have the horses to stay with a good team like UA. If this team had shown up in the more winnable games consistently we would not be where we are right now. Just hoping at this point that we can steal one or two games down the stretch if we can get a couple guys healthy and actually give some players a rest.

No shame. Over-matched. Talent wise and number wise.

The fact that people are somewhat encouraged by a game where they are blown out in the second half says a lot about the state of the program.

I remember WELL in the midst of the years of football futility, the exclamation, “…They KNEW they were in a game!!!,” talking about the team that just beat us. Moral victories SUCK, and are for ….. never mind.

With the 21st loss, the season is approaching a special kind of bad. Only 2 seasons have had more losses, 25 and 27. And Tinkle set the record for losses in a season at 27.
But there's a chance that record can be eclipsed with at least 7 games remaining.

As Oscar Wilde once said:

So there's that?!

The fact that people are somewhat encouraged by a game where they are blown out in the second half says a lot about the state of the program. Very true. But I’ve pretty much closed the book on this season, and I’m more curious about who might be left here next year from this team. So I was encouraged that with an undermanned team, the Beavers did show some fight.
