A fanatical effort down the stretch was finished off by James Woodard, and Tulsa came up with a win it had to have. Woodard scored 20 points and grabbed nine rebounds to lead Tulsa to a 60-51 comeback win over UConn on Thursday night in front of 5,192 fans at the Reynolds Center.

I would like to see Woodard drive more. He's fine at the dribble penetration --- he can pass, shoot or get fouled (and make his FTs).

He is also the best I have seen in years at the hard drive and then pull up from 10 feet. It's impossible to stop and he can hit it consistently. Did it once last night. He should do that 4-5 times a game. It opens up the outside shot if they lay off him outside. It's a lost art shot and today's players can't guard it.

Bingo! And the team lit fire when Shaq had that magnificent reverse dunk. One of the best individual plays I've seen by a TU player. I could watch that again and again.
