[B]Comments: [/B] - 1.800 points per takeway is the third best we’d done this season, (behind Virginia I and Louisville) and better than any opponent has done against us. But we just didn’t have enough takeaways for it to matter. If we’d had the 17 takeaways we had in the first game, that would have produced 31 points at that rate, instead of 18. - We scored 35 points in unsettled situations, (O-Rebs +takeaways), but only 28 in our opening sets, (first chance points). - I’m astonished that BC was credited with only 8 fast break points. I thought they had at least twice that many. - We virtually always win “starters points and we did here, 68-67. But we need to win that by a much larger margin to offset a 2-18 deficit in bench scoring. [/QUOTE]
