They are shooting over 71% from 3 and AZ is playing pretty sloppily and taking bad shots and making bad turnovers.
But the Clemson defense looks good. Caleb Love or someone needs to get going offensively.

Keshad shouldn't pass up an open look 3 like that. AZ is having a tough enough time getting good shots.

Yeah, I know. He can get really cold, but he started out taking flat out bad shots.

Yeah I didn't expect AZ to be SOOOOOOOOO FLAT coming out in a what is basically a home game!!! Clemson will cool off later on. AZ needs to wake up by half way of the half to make it a game.

Ditto. I liked AZ from start of season but this HALF is alarming.

UConn is running circles around San Diego State as I expected. Aztecs don't got much of an offense either so that game's over.

But where is your DEFENSE Arizona. Why are you giving up so many backdoor cuts.

UConn is a really good team, probably the best in the nation. Defending champs. Great coach, good deep team.
San Diego State as well. Could be a revenge game.
I'm leaning towards Aztecs on my pick. Originally had UConn in the Final 4.
Gonna be a great game.
Anyhow, here's a cool state. This is the 4th such matchup of teams playing against each other in the NCAA tournament, after facing each other in the NC game the prior seaaon.

I don't think Aztecs are as good as last year.
You're probably right.
They are still a good defensive team, but not a lot of offense.
Aztecs led the game very early on. 2-0.
All UConn since then, so far.

Caleb Love 2-9 and 0-4 from 3. He looks horrible. Throwing up airballs. If he doesn't get going early in the 2nd half, they need to let the others handle the offense.

They still got a 3 point shooter, but they don't got the huge physical center like they did last year. This was one of the beefiest oldest teams last year. They could've played football. That's how they got to final four.
