I know Robinson wasn't able to finish that fast break drive, but it was good to see him attack like that.  More often than not, good things will come of it.

Someone needs to tell Bielfeldt that just because he's capable of hitting the odd three doesn't mean it's a good shot early in the possession.

I'm really annoyed by these officials now. These new rules suck. If this turns Into the NBA were every little contact is a foul then this will ruin college basketball.

The only way you limit the damage caused by poor rebounding is to take care of the ball. If you turn the ball over AND you can't rebound, then you'll be lucky to be over .500 in the B1G.

Something we're just going to have to accept: We don't have a B10-starting calibre ball handler.  It's going to make life much more difficult than it should be all year, but as long as we don't force dumb TOs, it is a weakness we can play through.

Horford looking really good tonight.

Like what Walton did there.  He pushed it up the floor in case something opened up.  When it didn't, he held it up just long enough for Stauskas to come open.  Hope to see more of that!
