Really wish it was just the play-by-play on this broadcast- they clearly know the game better than the analyst, who feels the need to say something after every point despite not knowing what they're talking about.
I know I'm being critical.

Was their longtime BTN+ analyst named, "Unique Beaver" or did I always mishear them? I actually liked her calls whenever I caught them.

She was good- a very mellow analyst, like the opposite of excitable which I appreciated.

I'm only slightly conflicted, I'd like to see Purdue advance, but one of the gals I coached in her early club days is playing for Fairfield.
