January 17, 20188 yr Author UC shot 36.5% field, 25.0% from 3, and 60.0% from the line. UCF finished shooting 30.6%, 29.4%, and 30.0%. Gary Clark lead all scorers with 17. Fall, Griffin, and Allen had 7 a piece for the Knights. Clark also led the game with 14 rebounds. Tako Fall had 8 for UCF.
January 17, 20188 yr Author 19-15 at the half...that had to be hard to watch Not near as tough as watching that free throw shooting contest in the second game I watched. Besides, I'm used to watching USF play. Players missing layups and wide open 5' jumpers is normal for me.
January 17, 20188 yr I thought sure Pitino would teach them how to score the other night. Guess not. Two of the top 4 defensive teams in the country...nobody was expecting a score in the 60's. UC was able to dictate the tempo in the second half which led to a more "normal" score of 34-19 Bearcats.
January 19, 20188 yr It can't be fun going up against 7'6" Taco Fall. He sits in the middle of the zone and makes it almost impossible to get to the rim. He is a big boy!
January 19, 20188 yr Author It can't be fun going up against 7'6" Taco Fall. He sits in the middle of the zone and makes it almost impossible to get to the rim. He is a big boy! Fall caused a lot of shot modification, but he had only 1 block. He also had a goal tending call. He may be tall, but he is incredibly slow and tires easily. He couldn't hit a free throw, if his life depended on it. I'll be interested in how he does in the NBA. UCF only had that one block. UC had 6, 3 by Jacob Evans.
