We were outshot in terms of field goal attempts, 30 to 19 in a half game.

11 more field goal attempts would be a lot for a game.

They had 11 more than us in a half.

You have to hit like 65 plus percent from the field or hit a ton of three-pointers to survive if you're getting outshot that much, if they are getting that many more cracks at the bucket than you are.

Either that or you have to shoot a metric, just a ton of free throws.

And Duke did not...

UConn shot three more free throws than we did in the second half.

The refs were going to make sure that Duke didn't get a huge free throw advantage in this game, believe me.

And by the way, huge props to him.

Amazing, amazing game.

One of the best games of his career.

One of the best games that we've ever seen from a player, you know, to knock the Blue Devils out of the tournament.

But I want to be clear.

He was especially early on.

He was getting away with walks, hop, skips and jumps, spending more than three seconds in the lane.

At one point after like the first eight minutes of the game, he was on like 50 point pace in this contest.

And frankly, the refs were doing him a lot of favors.

I'm going to go ahead and say, look, I want to be clear.

You and I always say this.

I'm not blaming the loss on the refs.
