Sobering..

Very, very sobering

Still early yet. Took Norman Dale a few games to get going as well.

Don't worry. We still control our own destiny in the SEC.**

There is no excuse to lose to a SWAC school. That's not a talent issue. Pathetic

 

[codeDawg]

I saw a bunch of individuals making some really stupid individual decisions in the brief time I watched the game. You can't turn the ball over like that and expect to beat anybody.

 

[patdog]

Yes. But not completely unexpected. We were a terrible team the last 3 years and we've added a couple of guys who were playing high school ball last year. There's going to be some growing pains. Different sport, but Nick Saban lost to UAB his first season at LSU and lost to LA-Monroe his first season at Alabama.

Hell he lost to CROOM.

It's so quiet, you can hear the ankles breaking as people jump off the bandwagon.

It was a "good loss". **

We have got to beat Miami next Thursday on national tv. I dont know how good miami is but they are a name brand program and it would be an important win. Hopefully, the southern loss will light a spark in the team and we play well Thursday. Remember 2012 when we lost to akron. Then we looked like a totally different team in the 2k turny.

I really hope this is the case.

That's what I'm thinking. Howland barely knows this team in reality. He still has a lot of stuff to iron out I'm sure...rotations and all that crap.

This is exactly the kind of season I'm anticipating. It's only two games in, and I think the team will improve quite a bit, but I do expect them to be erratic. In the various posts regarding our preseason expectations, I kept saying I just wanted to see an entertaining product on the court, and I expect a winning season. So far that looks to be what we're getting.

These guys play an up-tempo game, and I think they are capable of beating almost anyone. They are also capable of some frustrating losses. I was disappointed in Howland down the stretch, though. He could have done a better job of directing traffic when they were only down by 2. I'm also surprised at the total lack of defense in the first two games.
