X's defense has been absolutely porous this year. You cannot play Scruggs and Marshall on the floor at the same time down on the road against a quality opponent.

Q makes a rare 3
6 TO's by X
Too many empty possessions against a solid team

Really sloppy play so far.

It's good and bad when Goodin hits a 3. I'll take the points, but it probably guarantees he takes a couple more. I wouldn't mind it if X has a double-digit lead though, which doesn't seem likely today. This is the worst defensive effort X has played all year so far.

TV reception is shaky. Local problem or overall feed?
Must be local. Mine is fine on Fioptics in Cincinnati.
Fine here in NKy with an antenna

X must lead the nation in getting shots blocked

Jesus the refs are letting providence do whatever they want inside when our guys come down with a rebound and go back up

I love JP, but a 30-foot trey isn't what X needs down by 11. Very undisciplined play by the team on both sides today. Need to get it down to 8 by halftime.
