It looked like Collins was close to getting T’ed up when he kept arguing that last foul with the ref.
Huge win - he coached a great game. But, pretty please… keep your cool against UCLA, coach!
Go Cats!!

How about the Princeton kid from Glen Ellyn who was great today for Princeton
Point well made and credit due. I thought Collins did a good job coaching this game
Boises state was just frankly completely unable to deal with him. He probably could have scored more had we needed it but other guys were helping. It's crazy it took them all game to adjust.
Hats off to the cats! Not sure if Boise is just slow, but the offense was the best we have seen in a while.
There are opportunities to for the Big Ten to advance (especially with the Wildcats winning), but an underwhelming conference performance in the NCAA tournament would unfortunately would not be something new:
It’s the same old story. The B1G has rarely been top elite, but most of its teams have been top 40 or better.
He was not protesting the foul but that the Boise foul shooter was halfway to the basket before the intentional miss got to the rim
For those asking about the ponchos, they were the giveaway swag at the pep rally. Taphorn, Hall, Malnati, and the Fitz boys all donned them at tipoff and other fans followed suit.

Lots of bruin fans in this session now, but they are not nearly as loud (and all sitting).
Also big props to the entire section 109 (I think) who stood the entire game. Tons of juice for the cats all game.

I just turned on the UCLA game and they’re absolutely dominating the Bulldogs.
So I don’t think we’ll have to worry about Asheville. Bring on the Bruins! Let’s finally get some revenge for the 2005 Sun Bowl.
It was 108. Led mainly by Fitz and the 2017 team sitting a couple of rows behind him.
We actually played them in basketball in 2013 at a Thanksgiving tourney in Las Vegas. I was there. It was a blowout. Let's get revenge for that one.
Wow I must have blocked that one from my memory.
I looked it up: we’re 0-1 against UCLA in Basketball and 3-3 in football.
But we haven’t beaten them since 1948.
If that's the same kid that made the two free throws at the end of the game to give Princeton a three-point lead, the announcer said that his father played basketball for NU and his mother played volleyball for NU.
