Plus the Aggies have guarded the foul shooting very well, holding Idaho to 56.5%! :)

I don't think the D has been that bad. They've forced 16 turnovers and have 8 steals. Idaho has been able to make 3s. Good offense always beats good defense.

I agree that the offense was ragged the first 8 minutes or so, but they really did settle down, committing no turnovers after starting with 7. On the other hand, I agree that some TY needs help on the scoring. I thought Daughtery was supposed to be good shooter but he hasn't found the range yet. Rocak and Lose need to look to score. They have only one field goal attempt between them.

I thought the team made some nice adjustments toward the end of the half. The matchup zone caused problems for the Vandals. I don't think poor defense was responsible for the end of half scores by Idaho. They made 9 of 16 from 3, accounting for 67.5% of their scoring. Most times, teams cool after in the second half. The Aggies just have to stick to the way they played toward the end of the half.

Where's the offense? Only 2 assists in 14 minutes and 7 turnovers. Players are not executing. Sloppy passing. Poor shot selection.

Good time out by Coach Les to fix the holes in the defense.

Defense suddenly falling apart as Ags fall behind by 7.

But since 2016, the Aggies are undefeated against Idaho.:wink:

Great for TY scoring 35. Not so great that he almost half of the team's total.

I think Oldbanduhalum called it right: the Ags experience helped them away and against a bigger team of transfers. Anyone miss Eli Pepper? Without him, no one is scoring much besides TY. Even with Eli, this was often a problem last year as I recall, with no one to pick up the offense besides TY and Eli, except for an occasional burst from Kane Manning. Wish I had been able to watch the end, but the box score reveals two concerns: UCD had only 6 assists and went 6 of 27 from 3. On the positive side, they made 80% of their foul shots and held their own on the boards.

Well, I lost the feed with 12 minutes left. Go Ags!

Jdur steered me to Fox Sports online where I found the broadcast. Aggies holding their own so far! Solid defense and drawing a lot of fouls on offense.

I was so irritated I posted the previous message on the football page, but alls well that ends well thanks to Jdur.

Thanks!

I just discovered that my streaming service does not carry the Big Ten Network, so I'll have to follow the game via the internet. Nuts!

It's not so bad once you get used to it.

Sorry folks, I keep doing that: adjusting for the Hawai`i time in the wrong direction. Thanks to agalum for the correction.

We're 13.5 point underdogs in Seattle.

I just happened to look at the Blog site and noticed it is dormant, but there was an early request for funds in 2018. Does the site still need money?
