I had that thought right after I posted... I am an idiot.

Happens to all of us!
Hopefully this means the game will be on espn3 as well!

I finally get to watch a game.
… Pac 12 network cannot come soon enough.
Damn, my eyeball tastes good.
@chrislandon
Agreed 100%!
Cannot wait, I’m so excited for the network and the new stadium in 2013!

I'm excited for this one
We’re going to have to beat a few good teams on the road if we want to win the conference/make the tournament. Hopefully Wilcox can contribute more today.
This is definitely a win we need to get.
We need to make a statement on the road if we expect to compete in quality games in the tournament.

we need a fast start
and the last game worries me. I thought I heard that ASU only had 7 scholarship players dressed for our game, indeed there were only 5 subs on the bench. I thought we should run them into the ground, thinking that the pace should have been a little quicker than 22 points in the first half.
ASU does that to you though with their matchup zone.
They love to slow it down and grind it out, and they did exactly that. The game was played at 62 possessions, which is right where they want it (season average is 63). Compare to UW’s average of 72.
Simmons for a 3!
Aziz also doing some nice work early
Bad shooting
Loving the rebounds though
So many turnovers for Arizona
We need to continue to make them pay
Liking this start.
Methodically, professionally, running the show.
Seeing him last year
Never thought those two words would go together. He’s really improved this year.
Very High Ceiling
I know all the talk is about Tross, TWroten, CJ, etc. – however N’Daiye has a ton of potential in my view. I think he is going to be a force of nature next year.
He has always had the potential
You have to remember, he started basketball so late and had so little formal coaching till just recently – huge potential to be a beast next year. This is what I wanted to see this year; improvement.
Officiating:
BIG BIG BIG difference when Lute isn’t hounding officials on the sidelines all game. Arizona might be in slow decline.
I'm offically on the TW bandwagon after the past two weeks
he’s really stepped his game up. He’s still dominating the ball too much, but his decisions while dominating the ball are much, much better.
If he could shoot free throws we'd be scary good.
Without it we’re one and done in NCAA tourney.
Simmons hustle covers up a lot of his deficiencies
He’ll be a huge piece of this team going forward.
Can't Wait
Simmons and Aziz next year should bring a ton to this team.
If Aziz could ever learn to hit FTs
He would be scoring twice the points
I think at this point we can conclude that
He’ll never hit FTs and never be able to catch a low, short pass.
It's tought to count on a big man to hit more than 65-70%.
He’s 23-61 this year. If he hit for 70% he’d be 43-61. 20 points is 20 points and all, but that’s kind of an exaggeration.
Is there a reason Wroten isn't on the floor right now
I never thought I’d want to see Wroten on the floor because we’er turning it over too much.
That was a travel out of bounds not called on 'Zona on their inbound pass.
Officials need to go back to schoo
Wow, even the announcers notice the two atrocious non-calls.
Glad that the Pac-12 has their best on display for ESPN.
It's not just us
nobody has been immune from shitty refs…not even our beloved USC. At least Scott seems to recognize it about football. Somebody needs to put together a “greatest hits” of P12 basketball refs for him.
It's pretty embarrassing for the conference at this point.
It’s not like this is a new problem. With more and more games on national tv next year (with the new contract), it’s only going to become even more prominent now.
Hubert and Digger find Pac-12 officiating to be side-splitting.
Come out of commercial break convulsed in derisive laughter.
This is just ugly
nobody is thinking. They’re trying so hard to force the tempo that they aren’t giving themselves time to analyze anything.
I'm still here.
It’s just tough to talk about ugly basketball and subpar officiating.
Good job
Getting enough force in those fouls heh :)
ya i agree...
lot of ticky tack crap calls and then the more obvious ones are just not being called.

Uh Oh
Wroten and Gaddy with 4 a piece..
How huge would it be to leave Arizona with 2 wins?
by SacramentoSeahawk on Jan 28, 2012 5:51 PM PST reply actions
It would be
HUGE. Plus continue to put the lock on 1st in the conference. Go Dawgs!!!

It's not like its unpronounceable
Only the Father of our Country,
Christ almighty
MAKE A GOD DAMN FT! DON’T GIVE THIS AWAY
do arizona fans know bb?
or did it go away with Lute
Road win, Baby!!!
Ragged game. Refs didn’t help.
Maybe, but the Dawgs are getting better.
Slowly, but surely.
wow....didnt arizona beat us like that last year with a last second block?
by SacramentoSeahawk on Jan 28, 2012 6:10 PM PST reply actions
Huskies got lucky that the Zona player was dumb enough to get the blocking call
against them. They almost fell into the same problem that happened earlier this year (one timeout left and refusing to use it).
Tony "W"! Wild at heart!
Got Coaching? These guys can’t buy a free throw! Gotta fix that!
They still would have had 6 seconds to get down the floor
And since UA had enough time to get back down themselves, it almost worked out for them.
Listened to the end in the car...
I think I need to avoid driving while listening to the latest edition of the Heart Attack Huskies.
I hope we make the Tourney, but I fear we’re not going to get far if we shoot like that from the line.
Awesome just awesome
Go Dawgs
UW Dawg Pound - SBN Seattle

Awesome win
It seems like every time we play Arizona it’s an exciting game. Having CJ back healthy makes such a big difference for our offense.
This Dawgs Team
Can Scrap – lets get them some more pub on here – they have a real chance at winning the Pac 12.
Damn it, WSU Blew It
not a good week for my Pac 12 picks
We aren't playing 4 on 5 anymore and I think that reflects some of these wins
Some of you will recall early in the season Aziz wasn’t even close to a scoring threat and we were basically playing 4 on 5 offensively. We found something, where he can contribute on offense. That little turn around jumper in the paint is a good starting point. He’s good for 8 points with it.
I never questioned him on the defensive side of the floor, but offensively we need a contribution from him so that the opponent couldn’t cheat over to help double up on us. Wroten has grabbed all the headlines, but in my opinion this team has come together because we’ve got something working with Aziz on both sides of the floor. Now if we can get him to at least 50 to 60% at the line, he’ll take his game to another level.
All I saw was purple
Huge win!
McHale is one of the most difficult arenas to play in the Pac 12. Anytime you can win there is big.
All I saw was purple
An Awesome Win for the Dawgs!
We’re finally able to gel as a cohesive unit. Teamwork was much better organized this time around. Everyone did their part, and I do mean everyone! Go Huskies!
I have my post-game review up for those interested

Great win for the dawgs!
We needed that one since it’s the closest thing to a signature win we have so far this year. A win on national TV in Tucson is always a tough win. Go Dawgs!
