Akognan won't quit - 31 points, the last 13 for the TItans...he personally is keeping the Titans alive.

Robinson's getting the left, right, left, right, stand, stand, stand, SIT DOWN chant as he fouls out VERY early in the game due to a loose ball call.  Bohannon makes both free throws - applicable for a guy who made 39 in a row this year.

10:00 p.m.  UW 30, UCSF 30  18:27 2nd Half
