Game Thread: Wyo @ Utah State

[Cowboy Junky]

Get Adams the fuck out of there. He's playing like such a douche. Lazy passes and lackluster effort all around. Sit his ass down

We do need to get a message across. He's been lazy with the ball all season long. It's one thing for him to turn it over being aggressive. It's another thing for him to dribble it off his leg or just lob it up there for the defender to rip.

What is his problem this year? He can't maintain the edge and focus during the entire game.

I agree. Look, he's the most athletic and explosive player we have and makes a ton of plays that overshadow some of his deficiencies but he has taken a serious step back this year in defense and ball control. He used to be our best shutdown defender but he has not been up to task as often this year. And his passing has gotten SO lazy. I don't get it

Seems like all the love for the Utah state student section was a bit overblown.. Starting lineups were boring, they've been quiet on D, generic chants while on offense, and there's quite a bit of empty seats.

I guess lousy student sections is a nationwide epidemic, not just a wyoming problem

One of the ugliest first halves of Basketball, I mean I'm not happy about it but we're down by 3 and we could be down by 10 the way we have played.

Going to have to penetrate more in the second half to get them into another defensive look. Refs are definitely calling in favor of USU but home cooking is pretty normal so you have to overcome it. Adams has been fouled a number of times and none were called.

They double up on Nance on anything inside of 12 foot and Nance isn't doing as good of a job finding who is open he doesn't look comfortable out there right now and he is struggling bad outside of the 12 foot range some very odd air-balls.

Shyatt is going to have to make a number of halftime adjustments or we're in trouble.

A large majority of Adams turnovers are when we don't have Nance or Cooke down low. Communication between Herndon and Adams isn't there like it is with Nance or Cooke. Fast or unexpected passes Herndon has a tendency of missing them. It will come together as he gets more playing time.

Taking him out would be a huge mistake on top of that you all say he isn't as good as last year but every announcer in the country says he takes better care of the ball this year and he is more mature. I think some of you just need to blame someone it's not just Adams it's a team effort.

More Adams BS leads to an inflated score. I don't get it

It wasn't "team effort" that threw TWO (2) out of bounds passes directly to Aggies instead of Cowboys...

 

[seattlecowboy]

Yep Adams turning it over again. He has been terrible this year with turnovers and then Nance throws it away. We are probably going down tonight unless something changes fast.

 

[laxwyo]

We are getting straight up fucked on calls

Yeah that Hankerson break away was ridiculous

 

[fromolwyoming]

When even the announcers are wondering why the refs are fucking us, you know it's bad.

I expect some home cooking, but this is bullshit.

 

[cali2wyo]

There's been maybe 3 calls. And we know hankerson would've missed both free throws. We're fucking ourselves with sloppy turnovers and lazy D

I must be watching a different game.

I rewound my DVR and watched it 3 times...there was no foul. In fact it should have been traveling and then offensive before the block even occurred.

This guard play is iuuuggggllllyyy

Haha ok. Even the announcers thought it was a foul and ROOT sports announcers are never in favor of Wyoming. Not sure how it wasn't a foul. There was 0% chance of him making the shot due to the egregious body contact. I was always taught thats a foul.

No foul when hankerson went to the rim? You're fucking blind!! He was bumped for the travel and then jacked by the big man. Adams gets fouled every time he takes it to the rim

 

[seattlecowboy]

We aren't getting screwed on calls. Hankerson foul could have been called but that was it. We are just playing like total shit. Especially Adams. Shyatt needs to pull Adams out of the game and leave him on the bench for awhile.
