I only caught the 1st 10:00 and then was busy the rest of the day. How did we look the rest of the way? Williams and Thomas were looking good early.
After Coron was on fire in the 1st half, he came out in the 2nd half, threw a nice entry pass to Devin, his man doubled, and Devin gave it back to him for an uncontested 3 pointer. That 2 man game worked all night, leading to 5 assists on top of Devin's nice scoring and rebounding numbers. Codi chipped in 6 assists to 1 turnover (Coron with zero turns and one missed shot by comparison) and Moto went 4-4. Everyone else either struggled or didn't do much minus Overton who knocked down two clutch 3's just after Notre Dame missed a wide open look at a 3 that would have cut it to a 2 point lead in the 2nd half.
Combination terrible strategy and effort from Notre Dame (we beat them 33-23 on the boards) - they looked outmatched physically against Devin and had no answer for Coron. Connaughton scoring within 3 of his season high kept it closer than it felt throughout.
I expect a physical Pitt team to put the hurt on us in the 2nd half tomorrow.
