Any words on what caused Tad Boyle to go bonkers? That was a real momentum changer. After Tygrrrs four FTs we were up 14 and played confidently thereafter.

From what I could determine there was nothing definitive. Boyle referenced "fighting for his team" in the post game interview, nothing else. He went on to say that their loss could not be blamed on officiating, that UCLA and especially Amari Bailey played a great game. After the double T, Murray and Lewin said that Boyle had been on the refs for the prior 6 minutes. They weren't sure if he wanted a different call when the eruption happened but Boyle directed some "salty" language at the refs and you what that gets you.

Thanks, Bruin Momma! As I said, I think that loss of cool may have cost them the game. I guess no one likes SPTRs. Go Bruins, pluck the Ducks!

I guess you could argue that there was only what a minute left in the game, but yeah the whole team looked deflated and completely out of sorts. Those extra four free throws surely added to Tyger's overall points. See you tonight and go Bruins! Hoping not to digest myself. LOL
