my pregame scouting report on this board was somewhat on point but understated
they forced tough 2s which you knew was the goal and we werent going to win the rebounding battle even if they shot like they normally do though i imagine that wldve led to more dreb opps. but it was obvious to me based on auburn age/strength wld be a challenge down low.
townsend is strong but they called a foul every time he took a step.

"sdsu is well coached. they will hard hedge and maybe trap high ball screens.
you will have to go inside to win this and battle a grown man etc. this is where they have the advantage in strength and age and thats why they will play those odds in a pressure packed game.

was proud of the fight there but was also exposed by auburn. i said our difficult matchup was 3-4 at auburn. broome was a given so didnt count him though he went off and passed better than i thought he would particularly out of double. i think it also shows how hard of a time our bigs have playing physicla without fouling against grown butt power bigs.
then the thug 3 was removed from the game. that helped bc he was a matchup problem.

here i dont know what you do on this big. hes a beast and like broome finishes in a variety of ways. in some ways you need trunk leverage and to protect wolf. so townsend probably plays more."

On the timeout thing, one counter is that one of Jones’ strengths is that he exudes calm and that keeps the team calm. So not calling timeout may just be saying “nothing to see here” and conveying to the team that there isn’t a need to panic. Eventually they got punched in the mouth enough that they finally unraveled. But it took a while, and some crazy sustained shooting by SDSU.
