Games like show how much Alkins is missed. No defensive pressure at all near the basket.

how many points in the paint does CU have? Probably just as many as us. Thanks to pack line, Ayton is always on the perimeter.

Ayton is so good that people say he can't block shots, yet after this game he is going to be right around 2 BPG.

What's the poor girl supposed to do? She's an Arizona Wildcat. She's a member of the cheer squad. Totally support her and wish her well.

You clearly see the worst in people. See the glass half full. What a miserable existence you have.

Miller takes care of Arizona and his players. Doesn't give two shits about Tad Boyle and Colorado.

Everyone piles on R&F, but leave the man(?) alone. He's not a troll. 99% of us are Wildcats fans who come here to vent. It's frustrating watching brick after brick. We lose this game if Ristic wasn't hitting his shots like last time.

I've never met a fan who vents 100 percent negatively while rarely engaging in discussions, that's for sure!

Obviously, we're here to vent. I have rants on here from time to time, we all do. But every post isn't a rant. Every post doesn't say that either the coach, the team, or both, suck.

Look at his freaking posting history. You think you could find me ONE positive thing that he says about an Arizona player, coach, or team? One? Nope. It's always "Miller is a moron", *silence during a winning streak*, then "Wow, Miller loses to a zone again", "Miller can't use talent effectively".

I don't even disagree with his sentiment at times, but he's pointlessly negative. And if he's allowed to vent, I'm allowed to vent right back.

You’re new here.

First. He is.

Second the “we woulda lost if it wasn’t for ________” is just fantastic. Use that for every win.

The team shot 52% and 69% in second half. Brick after brick.

Trier must of been the third little pig in the first half, ‘cause he built himself a brick house.

Glad he didn’t build another in the second half.

A first half which is palatable against the Colorado’s of the world, but one we/he can’t have against S16 and above competition.

3-8 is not a bad shooting percentage. Without Rawle I have no idea what you expect from him.

Not hating on you but it certainly seems like you hate Trier and nothing will ever make you happy with him

Don’t hate trier but fully believe that trier givith and taketh away.

Don’t hate, just with he’d try something different when he goes 0/3 with in the span of 2ninutes when we are down 10 to start a game.

He’s Jerryd Bayless 2.0, except now we have talent and aren’t coached by Russ Pennell.

That, to me, is the most frustrating thing about trier, when he hits a rough patch he doesn’t have another skill set to rely on (defense only when he wants too) and reluctantly involves the four and five star talent surrounding him.

Hey, we got a win against a team that beat us last time. I'm not gonna pile on anybody. Great game from Ristic, he was a huge difference-maker. And PJC, with that last 3 to basically hammer in that last nail. Almost right up there with his two steals late in the last game. Nice win without one of our best players.

I want Trier taking every single one of those. They were good looks and what CU was giving up. The only way to have CU relax on Ayton and not triple team him and clog ever passing lane to him is to take and make those shots. Trier is more than capable of doing that. Good looks just didn't go it. It would have been tough the way CU was zoning for him to drive on those open 3 looks
