PrintHo-hum another non-conference win. Perfect antidote for finals week for our Ben-Ball Warriors/student-athletes. Enjoy the highlights.

Thanks for posting the highlights
I wasn’t able to watch the game on TV. Stupid Comcast. Actually I guess the tournament organizers also need to share blame for not getting more national coverage of the games.
The announcers (as bad as they were) mentioned the key word
Unselfishness. If there’s a word that describes a Ben Howland team besides Defense, it would be unselfishness (or selflessness). While I was frustrated with the turnovers we were committing in the early games this season, it was mitigated slightly by the fact that many of them were the result of our guys trying to make plays for others. It’s one thing to overdribble, overpenetrate and commit a turnover and another to try a lob pass that was a little too high for Drew Gordon for instance. At least the second is a demonstration of teamwork, and it’s one of the many reasons why Ben Howland teams are a joy to watch.
Is it any surprise that teams that draft CBH players are pleasantly surprised by what they get? They’re asked to sacrifice for the good of the team while they’re here, and everyone buys into the “rising tide lifts all ships” philosophy.
We're sometimes unselfish to a fault
IMO there are times that we pass up good shots because we’re so unselfish, but that’s certainly better than the opposite end of the spectrum. It makes this a great team to watch.

Yeah, I thought the annoucer's timing was perfect
Right when Drag scored an easy layup on a great assist from DC on the fastbreak. Just showed the incompetence of that announcing team. The camera work was awful too.
