Gotta stop Nutall....somehow. Need Kohl and Pleasant to be big this half with some timely threes mixed in. Sam won’t be going anywhere.

Huge win! So happy for Coach Golding!
We must be ready to play against UCA on Saturday

Maybe a little speech left... They all played well, very well, but the guy who keeps surprising me is Simmons. But that was a team effort.

Looks like the Cats know how to finish. Runs to end both halves. Hopefully we'll have Gayman and Mason back for SFA. What a gritty performance by ACU.

Incredibly gritty. We had guys limping off the court, our feisty defender with 4 fouls with 8 minutes left, Gayman out early.
Really out of any rotational lineup to finish the game and on top of that they had a guy looking like an NBA player out there trying to will them to victory.
We made 18-22 free throws and were 10-19 from 3 tonight while they were 5-20. That’s what won the game.

Nutall is a player! I just yelled out "everything they throw up goes in" and immediately Simmons banks a 3. He and Pleasant were men tonight but this was entirely a team effort. Everywhere I looked someone was making a play. I love this team.

Everywhere I looked someone was making a play. I love this team. Nutall is fantastic. Any false step and he's ready to score. I did like Simmons and Pleasant being matched up on him late because Nutall was scoring pretty freely on everyone else. Giving him a different look with more size was a good coaching move. On that play of the game, Nutall was angling for that sneaky off-hand slide to create space, but he couldn't move Simmons. He stayed right in there and got the pivotal steal. That second half Simmons was tremendous. He was everywhere, and I love that he made that 3 to close it out (followed by Pleasant). Great team win.

Team sport, team game. With Clay out who does Golding put in his high post position late, Tobias Cameron--who immediately gets a pass to Kohl for a score. These kids never skipped a beat even playing different positions and having different rotations. Several were cramping but toughed it out. Prayers for Clay.

It’s interesting to look at the difference in philosophy and approach to the game by our men’s and women’s coaches. Both have had success but one entire roster while the other relies more on starters to get the job done.

Nutall likely wins player of the year in the conference. He is so good! Absolutely love what Golding and Tanner have built here!

I'll add I thought our crowd was great too! The students showed up! It would have been interesting to see what the size of the crowd would have been if we were able to have that game in Moody. The bats would have been woken up!
