I just heard postgame from SC coach. Was really disappointed in their performance tonight

he looked sooooo upset during the game. thought many fouls weren't being called on his players. they just were totally out-manned tonight.

I like this team.

Someone with more knowledge/understanding, please detail to me more about USC and why they haven’t seemed to really improve much since that coach arrived. I really thought his style and the athletes out there would be a win win but it doesn’t appear to have meshed yet.

They were not hitting their shots at all. Sitting close to the floor, you could just see and feel the lack of energy on their side in the second half. When a team gets down by 20+ points, it becomes a psychologically defeating too. We really played well tonight. The difference was so obvious between the two teams.

Watching this game tonight, this team looked like a top 10 team. They were smooth, played good defense, hit some great shots, didn't seem like fouling was an issue, worked the perimeter well - I was very impressed. I hope we can keep this momentum going. I think we are getting better as we go.

I wish we played more games in Staples center

I love watching basketball live. SOOOO much more exciting!

Was his wife at the game?

Best game in the CJD era, IMO.

I’m torn between how good we looked and how bad they looked and which one resulted in the other. They looked lifeless and disorganized on both ends and didn’t work too hard on defense. We looked the exact opposite. Did we make them look bad or vice versa? Is it somewhere in the middle? I don’t know enough about basketball to know. We looked damn good though. The effort and energy was as good as I’ve seen from a TCU team. That team last night could play for a while in March.

We destroyed their will to live. Go Frogs!

Type of game you want: a "name" team which isn't very good. Many of the frankly better teams than USC we have beaten this year most fans don't know.

USC was terrible. We were awesome. Great game

Thought that was funny because the refs didn't call a foul on USC for almost this entire first half. Judging by those two metrics, I would say that USC wasn't being physical all game.

USC exhibited last night why I am not a big fan of fast and loose up tempo styles. Its flashy but it has no substance and when it doesnt work it doesnt work.

So many unassuming fans these days around the country think the solution to a bad basketball team is to go uptempo.

The year we went 1-15 in the Mountain West, we beat an NCAA tourney USC team by 13.

Just do what the Warriors do! It's so easy!

50/40/70 is our key to success shooting....It’s typically where we land on the first two.

We hover in the 50’s-60’s in ft, its a potential tight loss or razor thin win.

Team is starting to find it’s rhythm!

Interesting that Fisher hasn’t taken a free throw yet this year

Tech beat them by 15 at home, we beat them by 35 on the road.
