Certainly didn’t look promising early on when TCU was shooting such a high percentage and UC was careless with the ball. Credit the ‘Cats for withstanding the hot shooting of TCU and finding a way to win the game.

I love this team, they are getting better, skillings will make his next big free throws, like Newman did tonight at end, lfg!!!

[Bearcat9796]

and if we force 19 turnovers, and make twice as many free throws as the other team, im happy

[Pharmfam]

Great win. Confidence builder for this team. Play tough and never give up.

John Newman’s best game as a Bearcat, same for Day Day. Wow.

Great win. Confidence builder for this team. Play tough and never give up.

This looked like the Bearcats we’ve watched for decades, tough as nails.

[BearKatz]

John Newman’s best game as a Bearcat, same for Day Day. Wow.

Totally agree! Newman Had his best game as a Bearcat in two seasons... Thomas had his best game of the year!

Skillings had two huge buckets in OT.. Even if those FTs are hard to swallow!

This team is nerve wracking to watch. However, they have of way of hanging around in games that probably makes it nerve wracking for the other team. This is one of the most interesting UC teams I have ever seen. By the way, I have been watching Cincinnati basketball since Tony Yates (late 1980s) and I have NEVER SEEN the students storm the floor. I did not think the students did that sort of thing at UC because UC has a long history of beating its share of good teams at home. Has anyone ever seen the students at UC storm the court?

They are learning how to win games like the one tonight. CWM really had to shorten the rotation. So much fun. Feels great to be in the Big 12.

Starting to see why Miller has been playing DayDay so much. He misses too many layups and turns the ball over too much, but he’s good and getting better.

[Gmann]

Huge win for their confidence. Lots to clean up but much easier after a win.

[GoBearcats31]

Good W. TCU impressive - hope they win a lot of games.

This feels a lot like those early 2010s teams scrapping for wins in the Big East

[GoBearcats31]

Midway through tonight’s games, UC is #17 in defensive efficiency per KenPom

That is Bearcat basketball

[Bearcat9796]

agree! ...and a Judy Tenuta reference?! that Rufus is a Constanza, goin out ona high note post! wait for the next game thread, u can't top that

Rufus, JN answered the call!

[fmirzamd]

Previous two defeats helped today, still lot of stuff to clean. Missing lot around the rim. Need to go back and watch Herb Jones tapes was so good in the paint.
