The Billikins had an 11 point lead at the half. They were up by as much as 15 points. Had a 4 point lead with 20 seconds to go and had a 3 point lead with 5 seconds to play.
Decided to foul instead of letting Stanford shoot a 3 to tie the game. Stanford hit the first FT then called a timeout to set up a second FT miss. Stanford did miss the second FT, got the rebound and threw up a three as time was running out. Of course the three was nothing but net. The player who hit the three……his only points of the night. Certainly was a tough one to lose!!

This one definitely got away from the Bills. A bad loss indeed. They should have slowed the game down but.......they never did.Whatashame wrote: ↑28 Nov 2025 21:00 pm The Billikins had an 11 point lead at the half. They were up by as much as 15 points.

It took 2 crazy 3's for Stanford to cap it off but they did it.

It was more than 2. The one guy was hitting from the parking lot most of the second half.dhsux wrote: ↑29 Nov 2025 07:59 amThis one definitely got away from the Bills. A bad loss indeed.

But don't go overboard. It's just a loss.
There's no such thing as a bad loss to a 6-1 ACC team.
