Open thread for those who can.
HALFTIME UPDATE: Pitt 35-28. Krauser leading the scoring. Young started slow but finished the half strong.
Okay, before the game started Hillgrove and Groat waxed positively euphoric over the officiating crew. Then the game started and Pitt was whistled for a ton of fouls while nothing on Wisconsin. 3 on Kendall and Gray, 2 on Young, Graves and Biggs. Ultimately They were acting like Pitt was getting screwed. I am not seeing the game, what is reality?
FINAL UPDATE: Pitt 73-64. Pitt 11-0. Jamie Krauser led the scoring, but this was the freshmen breakout game. At least that will be the storyline tomorrow. Big night for Young. Fields was efficient (except at the FT line). Biggs stepped up and had a great night filling in when Gray could not stay in the line-up.
Unsung heroics to Ramon for his defense and running the point. 6 assists, 1 steal and 0 turnovers. DeGroat apparently got the message and played solid. 25 minutes with 5 points a rebound and an assist. This despite an apparent injury during the game.
I’m signing off for the night. Happy new year.
