I rarely start more than a thread per game, but hadn't seen a thread with this title and thought the title was worth calling out. Simply amazing defense. AMAZING, especially Caleb just shutting down Pickett, but also everyone else closing out shooters.
Held a very good shooting team w/o a FG on the road for the last 9:16. Let that sink in.

We were DUE for a hot-shooting 3 team to have a very bad night against us lol!
Defense was ELITE. And it wasn’t just an “off” shooting night for PSU. We were making them uncomfortable and not leaving too many open shooters.
Law of averages after they were shooting 75% at one point in the first half
Shrewsbury owns some blame here....he rode his best player unto the teeth of the defense and Seth Lundy never had a chance.
Our defense was tremendous a few minutes into the second half on the rest of the way.
If you have your hands up and you play your man close, the % goes way down.
That is also why we struggle on offense most times. Penn State played excellent defense the first half.
Best of Luck,

Defense recovered and didn't allow as many open 3's. The intensity was way better
Paul only had Pickett for a short while and the double came to force the ball out of his hands . Caleb shut him down 1 on 1. Huge difference
