What exactly is there to say about a game in which your team goes 14 minutes and 53 seconds of game time without making a field goal? How do you talk about a game where your team only makes a total of 11 shots from the field?
There’s not much you CAN say. Washington has had a ton of trouble this year, and they have lots of weaknesses. But they still do one thing pretty well: when they can set up their half court zone, plenty of teams have trouble scoring.
And for a team like Cal, that hesitates to attempt open 3s and loves to try to initiate the offense with post entries, UW playing strong zone defense was kryptonite.
