MBB: UC Davis (3-1) at Colorado (4-0), Friday Nov. 21, 6 pm I really think they’re length and quick, coupled with the altitude, let them pull away. I was looking at the play by play, and their big guy went out at 10:40 with foul trouble - Niko’s free throws got it to 60-59 us. We got a stop and 3 pointer to push it to 63-59 with a little less than 10 to go. That’s when they took off. We had no answer for Bak on either end - his passing from inside out really got us out of sync.
I think Stokes’ early foul trouble shortened the bench which may have led to some fatigue. But, in that last 10 minutes, we often had Wilson, Sevilla and Fagbemi out there vs their really long team. Wore us down on both ends.
Good effort, especially digging out of scary 10-0 hole. We’re gonna need someone like Stokes to step up (Rawlins doesn’t seem strong enough at this point), along with some big man support ( Noudjihidi?) for Niko. And to continue to beat that dead horse, Daugherty brings length that we are lacking.
