One of the owners of the company I work for is the brother in law of CSU coach Larry Eustachy.  He asked me this morning what I thought about the game since Houston smoked us and I said we would play well since we are back home.  Looks like I was right! 

I love the CSU uniforms with the shorter shorts.

Bailey to Gafford, dunk

67 - 43 Hogs

[hview]

Hall, Gafford, Jones and Bailey bring the energy.

[hview]

Gafford 12 points in 12 minutes.

[hview]

Gafford 2nd foul.

[waphill]

Gafford is doing a great job of sealing off his man when the ball is reversed. We're making good entry passes to him as well. It's nice to see the hogs with a big man that can score. I feel like we haven't had that since Hood.

Gafford is so good. Gafford to the line.

[hview]

Bailey may not have scored, but his energy makes a difference. He just took a shot in the stomach. Cook in.

[hview]

The Hogs have cooled off on offense. They need to start going to Gafford.

[waphill]

Didn't Moses lead us in scoring for 2 years..

You're probably right. Imo, Gafford has much better footwork, which is surprising for a fresh.

Gafford steal and length of court dunk. Wow!!

[Dominicanhog]

Credit where due -- the Nixon kid for CSU has had himself a night.

Yep, Nixon has had a good game.

92 - 64. Holmes for 2

[hview]

For minutes played, Holmes may be our most productive player.

[hview]

92 - 66 the final score.  6 and 2 for the season.

Good job Hogs!!! Gotta big game on Saturday.

Good. We cannot accept any more games like Houston and UNC. Its time for him to step up in all areas of the game. Time for him to up his status if he wants to be an elite coach. gonna have to retool the offense to play in the half court as needed. as it stands, we're a one trick pony on offense. that can never happen.
