What's very confusing to me is that Cornell's style of play (fast tempo, full court press, lots of threes) seems to lend itself to plenty of upsets, but inconsistent play. But, what we have actually gotten over the past few years is the team very consistently beating worse teams and never upsetting better teams. We came close vs Miami last year but it is surprising to me that we have never upset a power 5 team recently and have won so consistently against worse teams.

Hard not to love this team.  

We have no chance if we don't rebound, and so far I think Baylor has gotten the rebound of every shot they've missed but one.  I don't know what the answer is, or if there even is an answer.

Need to recruit that elusive 7 foot center.

Refs not helping us out much, two push offs that led to Baylor O rebounds uncalled and some other soft fouls on Cornell. They did miss a pretty obvious offensive foul on Ragland though so they might just be bad.

I would make a joke but the circumstances of Jeff Foote winding up with us are not particularly funny.

Mr. Niss

We were in it until we weren't.

They get to keep shooting until they make.  No team can compete like that.

It's a concern in Ivies because Princeton and Yale are excellent rebounding teams.

ragland's dribbling is atrocious, same with his post game. He's good other than those issues when he doesn't throw up 8 threes per game, but those are pretty major issues to have.

Fun run right there, let's stay in it

His decision-making kills me.

Well at least I finally got my answer for why max watson hasn't been playing.

That's a very good basketball team Cornell played tonight. This game will serve them well as they move forward.
