Anyone else watching the cock and get a error message that the app isn’t working

First half was an extension of the Drexel game. Konan dominating inside, but we've missed a lot of wide open 3s. Feel quite confident that we'll pull away in the second half getting similar shots.

Not pretty, but finally got some stops and scored inside (and at the line) to put it away...then, once it was decided, we started knocking down our 3's.

We avoided all of the non-conference landmines, and put ourselves in position. Really big week ahead, with the home game against Northwestern and Indiana in Philly. Going 2-0 is important, but it won't be easy (Pomeroy gives us a 44% chance of it).

I keep reading that Goodman is close, and he’s going to contribute once he’s healthy…but I really wonder how we work him in during the conference schedule. Tough one to navigate at this point.

The box is rejecting the ‘cock. 😞
Not the first time.
I just eventually had to watch NFL football because the app wouldn’t work for more than a minute at a time before needing to log out or reset and then go through another minute or two of all of the commercials and such.
Seems like a semi typical Christmas break type game without a whole lot of intensity. Need to get that initial win against Northwestern to start the new year.

It just dawned on me that if the FB team makes the final, the home BB game against Rutgers will be like an empty dungeon in the BJC. Similar story happened in Philadelphia when they played Drexel at the Wells Fargo Center while the FB team was playing SMU.

I'd expect the conference to make some type of change to the game...probably not as drastic as changing the date, but likely moving it to something like 5pm to not conflict with the football game. Then, PSU would likely have a watch party in the BJC after the game (so hopefully this would help add to the turnout for the basketball game).

Lot of good looks haven’t dropped tonight, but getting to the line has made it a tight one.

Way too many turnovers…need to settle in here and put together some good possessions
Too many turnovers and giving up too many offensive rebounds. Then throw in Baldwin and Konan not shooting well and it’s tough.

I don't feel comfortable with this back and forth stuff. We need to get the lead to 5. We will need to hit our free throws down the stretch.

I’m sure people will complain about the number of fouls called tonight…but my God, they’ve swallowed the whistle a bit both ways or we could have had 20 more.
