Rebounding Remains A Huge Problem

[Cuse Action]

year after year, and foul shooting is still an issue.

Our wings are killing us. Hughes in particular. He had 3 tonight and so did OB. That along with the free throws from these two guys cannot continue. Simply put they need to do better. End of story. Chukwu too.

Rebounding free throw shooting, brisset, blah blah blah, yeah let's all bitch and moan and forget the obvious that it's what occurred in the first 30 minutes that decided this game, again! You can't help bur surrender after the feeling of its 8-5, it effects every part of the game, from shot selection, concentration, etc. result is inevitable

We were out rebounded 46-25

Every game we have whining about the reffing, just stop.

We were minus 21 in two areas: rebounding and free throws.

Lethal in a game where other stats favored us.

I think this game we have a gripe, not so much in others. The fact that we got outrebounded like that and the refs fed UNC free throws but we were still in the game and never gave up was encouraging. A good sign the team didn’t quit and fought as best they could.

Been on here since day one, a fan for 50 years, how many times have I made these remarks other than this week? Don't bother looking because it's zero. It's beyond the pale this past week

Boeheim just called the foul situation "crushing", are you gonna drop him a post telling him he's wrong too?

The first half was lopsided and didn't pass the eye test.

You’re not watching carefully then. What were fouls and FTs in the first half?

Maybe not you, but there always seems to be posters attributing blame to the refs. We were outrebounded by 20 and continue to miss foul shots. That's not on the refs.

It's amazing the game was even close.
Even getting killed on the glass the Orange possibly could have won with better foul shooting.
You can't pass up so many free points.

We knew we would get outrebounded by UNC they’re not a good matchup for us. When you add the free throw disparity and our self inflicted inability to make free throws it’s too much to overcome.

I just think if teams attack the offensive boards they will simply always have a 2 on 1 to 3 on 2 advantage underneath the glass every time .. it’s simple math ., systemic problem with how our zone takes away the three .. you can’t take away the three as well as we do without sacrificing something else

Watch the replay of tonight’s game and you’ll see time and time again 3 unc guys to 2 of our guys under the hoop ..

Ahem....
Syracuse Duke shenanigans

It was the same, or worse, at UNC.

 

[Ghost]

We need more dynamic rebounders! That's my answer.
