So far it's been a game of runs, but the Aggie defense has clearly come around in the latter part of the half to fuel a huge run. Unusually balanced scoring, too. No Aggie with more than 7 at the half. Interesting that Leo DeBruhl leads the team in rebounding.

Pepper has yet to score.

Of the Roadrunners 17 points at the 11:35 mark, all but 3 have been lay-ups or put-backs. The Aggie interior defense that was so effective so far has disappeared.

This one worries me. Could be a trap game after running over previously unbeaten (in the BW) CSUN.

We all had no idea that the team would be doing so well based on the pre-conference record. Can anyone see what adjustments Coach Les has made. For my part, it seems that their free throw shooting has improved and more players, notably Milling, are scoring more, but that does not explain how well they are playing on defense. Maybe something about the way they are sagging around the basket, but what exactly is different?

Looking for a 3x20 game and the closest I could find was a win over CSUN (ironically) in 2017 when Brynton Lemar had 28, Siler Schneider had 23 and Chiba Moneke had 19 in a 96-85 slugout. (I'm looking at games where UCD scored over 90 points.)

My mistake. I don't know why I wrote Roy Williams (although he was a pretty good coach too)

When was the last time the Aggies had three players with 20+ points in a game?

Roy Williams is such a great color guy. He's a bit of a homer, but he explains in such great detail about what has, might or should happen on the court without being negative.

Aggie D doing a great job of preventing CSUN from getting good shots in the paint. Plus, Kane Milling is playing great offense. TY, on the other hand seems to be lacking focus. Can't have everything, but UCD has a huge lead so far with 7:32 left in the first half.

The one thing that these Aggies have going for them is experience. All the starters are either seniors or juniors with at least two years playing for UCD. In this day of the transfer portal that is almost unheard of and has shown to their advantage in all of their conference games to date.

Can't overlook that the Ags minus Pepper and DeBruhl shot 1 of 10 from 3 (although the Antgobblers only got 3 of 11 as a team). We got out-rebounded 46-30, too.

A weird but exciting game. Seems like the Ags hit that cold spell around both sides of the half. You have to like the Aggies effort to make it close.

Do you believe this??!!

UCI's current 14 point edge is entirely made up of the difference in foul shots made.

Play by play guy is showing his true colors. He might be trying to be fair, but he's speaking to the Anteaters.

Game seems to be slipping away after that 8 point lead in the first half disappeared. Ags shooting has cooled and UCI is getting and making a ridiculous number of free throws.

I see that ESPN's odds of anAgs victory has increased from 9.8% to 12.3% after beating UCR. :)

Not sure how the NCAA handles the timing of this sort of thing, but we'll probably never know. TY's privacy is, and should be, protected.

Pure speculation on my part, but maybe TY is out due to some academic issues regarding his eligibility? Just saying that due to the timing after fall quarter grades.
