If you have heard this before, if you have heard it first, we get it down 12, we get it again because Colorado takes down the state refusal.
The Memphis season ends, ice, ah, look, it was worried for some people, but many people saw it coming.
What do you like from Colorado State?
Dude, they play an interesting style of basketball.
They are fast, they are in the transition.
They are knocking on the trousers.
You know, Nick Clifford was his big name to go to this tournament, and it was definitely a good game in double personalities, but it was really Keen Evans, which was a career high, 23 points.
What a timely time of career time.
He knocked on 6 trips.
It was really able to get him out by Colorado State.
So I feel like this for Colorado State, the difference in the game the way they shot 3 and the way they managed to control the pace of the game.
The refusal seemed slow to start for some reason.
They felt as if they were just going to dance on their way to the other round, and Colorado State made them up and out of their 11 straight wins for them.
What a wonderful game.
And I am excited to see more and more Evans, Nick Clifford when we go to this tournament.
Yes, we also found the worst of the memphos in this game.
Business has been a problem all over the season.
They were a problem.
All aggressive recovery was a problem, yet, as it was all the season.
The worst of the worst colorado state is the best of the Memphus, and so you get a defeat of 12 in 5, Colorado State can now see if they can keep the magic in the rest of the tournament.
