Both teams look like hot garbage. So much bad basketball compressed into the first 16 minutes. Horrible shots being taken by both teams.
Watching NU v. FAU

Buie is off, no Ty Berry, FAU has been losing quad 4 games this year. First one to 50 wins.......
Don't think either will bother UConn very much

Ty Berry.......and Boo Buie hates us for some reason and is good against drop coverage.
Also Barnhizer is from Lafayette and we didn't offer him a scholly.
This was not good basketball, to be kind. Like original Tampa Bay Buccaneers expansion-like with some of the turnovers.
At least it allowed Kenny Smith to use his 2024 hot take - it's the decision-making....the passion is there, the effort is there......yada....yada.....yada.....

tough to justify on just one game, similar to msu's win justifying them in the dance
He and Mr. Ed in the studio are unwatchable masters of the obvious— TBS blows!
16 turnovers and counting for Florida Atlantic. Northwestern has forced a couple, but these are just mostly Keystone Kops give-aways.....ouch.
Dusty May maybe losing his luster. Louisville and Michigan may be having second thoughts about now.
Tend to agree - think Florida Atlantic has more of a chance to be competitive, but I would expect Connecticut to steamroll on mercilessly.
Flagrant 1 on NW on the rebound.....woah.....big swing here as it's FT's and possession and costing NW a break opportunity. Two-point game, now.
Last two misses looked a little like tired legs shots, perhaps......normally hits one of those. Maybe a decoy to get Langborg or Barnhizer a better look? or, just go with who you brought to the dance?
What was Davis doing? Plenty of time to take a drive........welp.....Barnhizer's drive ties it.....OT!
Flipping back-and-forth between games as soon as it went in overtime I flip back to Western Kentucky real quick just in time to see Brandon get automatic and throw the ball away. Some things seem to never change pull for the kid. Great kid wishing well making the same kind of mistakes going into auto pilot.
NU not missing anything in OT. FAU looking like it did in the first half. IU can have Dusty May.
They weren't going to win, but that out of bounds call against FAU was horrible...and it didn't get reviewed. WTF?
I saw WKU took the lead, and was like "wondering if newman is doing anything?" 0 pts on 0/5 and a few rebounds. womp womp
Good gut-it-out win after almost collapsing for NW. Maybe-the-not-so-horrible Big Ten is 3-0 so far.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Buie carried them, but they went to him one on one four times in a row with zero ball movement late in the second half and got zero. Once they moved the ball around in OT they were fine. I think Buie was tired, shots were short. That happens sometimes with Edey, obviously a first, second and third option, but sometimes it's too much.
