CUTrevor 2024-12-17 20:41:36

He made both free throws to make it a 3 point game. He would have been smart to miss the second!

CUTrevor 2024-12-17 20:42:47

UGH Chase gets a great look to tie at the top of the key but air balls it! What a game...

TIGERS LOSE 91-88 IN DOUBLE OVERTIME.

It's the second overtime loss in a row for the 9-3 Tigers! I blame it on my friend, Roy Philpott, who called the game tonight as well as the loss to the Gamecocks in football. Lol I'll have post-game Brownell and highlights in a bit.
