Gritty win - Onto 2025. Jokes about Peacock's viewership and annoyances re the need for a subscription aside ... I thought the coverage was phenomenal. We got starting lineup introductions, halftime show, excellent inspired announcing from Fanta and Bahe, and thorough post-game coverage with the studio guys, Fanta, Bahe, and McDermott (as opposed to pre-taped studio shows or rushed conclusions on FS2, CBSSN, and occasionally FS1).

I won’t be mistaken for Lee Greenwood, but I thought showing the national anthem was awesome.

Thanks to the guys. I have never seen Ryan this fired up. Ash is the man. Our freshman four is exploding. Neal hit a big time three, great minutes from Green, Miller and Traudt. I love these guys.
So long Valley, hello big time.

Nick Bahe is one of my favorite tv analysts...that was the only Peacock positive. Perhaps somebody could explain the subtlety of the "time out on all hate" info/commercial that re-ran probably 15 times during the game. WTF are they talking about?

You’re against a call for less hate and division in the world?

Of course not. No rational person is. There was a comment about the Peacock broadcast. I honestly wanted to understand the specific issue that I had to be repeatedly lectured about during a f'n basketball game. It was a recurring distraction during an otherwise entertaining game. Peacock is garbage.

Glad to see the guys battle hard and pull off the victory. That block and dunk sequence by Kalk and his ensuing excitement was awesome to see!

Ironically, despite not scoring a point, Miller had the best plus minus by far at plus 14. Next best on the team was Neal and Traudt at +6.

Coach Mac in the post game comments suggested that Miller helps spread the opposing defense because the opponents don’t want to give him open looks and it gives the other guys on our team more room to operate.

I touched on the 15-4 run in the second half and Kalkbrenner's overall impact, the important roles Jasen Green and Isaac Traudt played and the need to take some pressure off Ashworth moving forward in my game.
