Little unfair to just beat up on the OP. Anybody who followed the game thread knows there are a lot of guys who think it’s sooooo freakin easy.

Good call

A 17 point lead in the 2nd half..if we had killer instinct the game would been over much earlier.

This is a young team in a tough division. So I’m not surprised they aren’t blowing teams out. Just frustrating.

We won the god damned game!!!!Yes we aren't putting our feet on their necks but we're not giving them the W either.

agree. My post was about putting our feet on their necks. I would like that. But we are young and in a tough conferenc

Another conference W
did not pull away
Did not fold when game was tight

Also one of these games we will get hot offensively and pull away

Keeping mind we play 4 sophomores and are young, they are learning to win.not always pretty, but they are winning. Enjoy the ride up

On the other hand, we're tough enough and smart enough to withstand comebacks and close out games. To me, that's a positive.

Part of that is we going into those 6-8
Minute scoring funks

When we figure that last piece out...look out

when we go into these funks, we don’t move the ball well and become one dimensional - either one man game or settling for late, long shots.

I guess in the long run these close games are much better than blowouts. True.
I think your basic point is something that concerns the coaches, actually. One of these games, giving up a big lead will come back to bite us. I'm not sure what the cause was this game, but Pike will address it during film.

but I’m a “terrible fan” because it concerns me..hmmph.

I trust that Pike will figure out why this happened the last two games and will adjust.
