They are picked to win the Big West after coming in second last year. They have all 5 starters back and three key reserves.

The game will be at 4 and there is an option to pay to see it.

We play the third game of the day. It should start on time as there is a long gap between game two and our game. UCI is favored by 7.

Tied at the half 25-25. We got off to a great start and had total control inside. Barrett was looking good. Then we reverted and were getting killed inside and went cold. Finall regouped after giving up the lead and went back up only to end it tied. We need to give our starters a break or this isn’t going to end well in all likelihood.

What the heck happened between the 2 minute mark and halftime? I can't catch the game on the radio and my internet service is generally crappy. Wave had something like a 5 or 6 point lead, I thought they were pulling away, and then suddenly it was tied at 25 at halftime?

Tulane loses 67-55. Kept it close in the beginning of the second .half and then let them get up by 10. Cut into it some late. UCI missed several FT's but we didn't take advantage. There were several times where they missed FT's and we let them get the rebound. Inexcusable. The game was there to be won.

Actually we were up by 10. Then like I said in my post. We went from having our way inside to getting killed inside plus we went cold.

The rotations are bad. Paul was having one of his games where he looked like a competent player. Yet in the second half he didn't play that much. The freshman really didn't get most of their minutes till late. We are playing three times in three days. We needed to be giving guys rest. It makes you think that he's so desperate to get wins he cut the rotations back which backfired and cost those freshman valuable playing time in the process.

Bout time these "great" coaches figure something out.

UCI opened the second have going 10-10 from the field. That got them a 48-37 lead, and they maintained it. Neither team had a bucket in the last 4+ minutes of the game. Can't make a comeback just on FTs.

We came out hot too in the second half. I believe we were up 37-36 when they stayed hot and we went cold. It was catch up time from there and we couldn't do it. In fact as the two teams traded buckets to start the second half the announcers said one of these teams will break. Guess who it was.
