#3 Iowa at #8 Maryland 1/28/2016

Hell of a game. Looks like whoever voodoo cursed Sulaimon's 3 point shot went away.

41-35 Terps at the half.

Whatever voodoo was cursing Sulaimon's 3 point shot appears to be doing the same to Nickens.

I like the way the starting five has played collectively. A little concerning that the game is so tight with us shutting down their best player. Up one with 8:48 to go. Trimble time.

My second half observations

- We have no bench. Period.

- If Nickens isn't going to make wide open 3's... he is useless

- MD's offense = stand around, let the shot clock wind down, then drive and hopefully create something

There we go... much better. Two straight possessions where Carter makes a soft floater in the lane.

Even Cal likes it.

We are missing a TON of easy shots. Feel like we should be up 10.

Frustrating that we can't make wide open shots. We should be blowing them out. Instead we're looking at another tight finish.

6 for 25 from beyond the arc. Yuck.

Are you kidding me????? Unbelievably bad foul call that results in Carter fouling out.

How is that a jump ball? This is some bs.

Two complete BS calls back to back. This game is hard to watch, just gut out a W here.

I was about to say something about that. Hilarious.

Lol at this Uthoff dude being a potential player of the year. Dude choked big time tonight.

Varun Ram... Defensive stopper.

We're creating a lot. The problem is that we can't sink a basket if our lives depended on it.
