2nd half team?

Not every game this year, but there's seems to be a pattern of hitting the opponent with a blitzkrieg after halftime. These Zags are potent and can put up points in a hurry.

Stunningly scoring.

The Duke game is kind of a big counter to the 2nd half thing. Should be interesting to see what happens the next 3 games. If they don’t lose then this team might not lose all year.

Halftime adjustments...let Snax be Snax )

except our 2nd half was more defense oriented IMO. Our offense honestly wasn't terrible in the 1st half.

Hard to tell with Creighton bc CU played perfect the first half.

We seem to lack concentration, a lot. Duke focused the mind quite a bit, only game this year we've put 2 fantastic halves together.

So explosive that whenever the explosion comes, it's 40 pts in 10 minutes.

I want to win every game, but really, I am not sure that the "team" isn't set up better for NCAA's if they don't lose one of UNC/Tenn.

[Zagricultural]

I'd suggest "Single Half Team".

I think you're overthinking things. If you can win them all, win them all.

[bballbeachbum]

the D fuels those spurts imo and not giving up the o board, but the great Zag O puts some pressure on the other team's O to keep up too, makes things just that much more contested on those tough twos the Zags force

the Duke game does balance the premise some

Do they finish the season w/ BYU at home? Could be a repeat of the team that went to the Championship Game. Undefeated til the end of regular season. Not that I think BYU is very good, but they've won several games in Spokane they had no business winning.

I just wanna celebrate...for 30 minutes, is that asking too much? The only game I'm worried about is...the next one.

- second halves against, Arizona, duke, Creighton, to me exhibit a mental toughness and belief in self and team.
- its like rui said, we are a great team, I'm a great player, this goes for all on the team. how about jones, takes one shot a 3 and drills it, that is confidence.

- also I credit coaching staff for half time adjustments, and instilling confidence, and mental toughness..............I love what the commenter overheard at the timeout with 5 minutes left, tells rui to beardown, saying tell yourself you are not tired!

Absolutely celebrate! Winning an early game on the road against a disciplined Big East team deserves a little happiness from this jaded crowd.

Rui's exact quote was "we're the best team, and I'm the best player" that in a nutshell is what separates this GU team from previous ones, supreme confidence that they're better than the opponent, no matter the score at a particular time, and I love it.
