Right when we were ready to put it away we got chippy and the T's and we let them in it. 56-49 and we just turned it over. Too close with a team like this.

At the game this is the first time we look unprepared they have played a zone the whole game and we just do not know how to attack it nor do we have the shooters!!

Well, at least we can say we have matched last year's win total. Ugly, somewhat troubling, but as they said on the radio, this was like a trap game coming off the high profile Miami game. So, we move on.

Love it. 7-1

I don't care how pretty it looks, a win is a win for this program. I've watched enough college bball this year to understand you don't with the 7 games you should by accident.

All I can ask for this year is a team that wins when it should, maybe losses 1 it shouldn't, and steals a game or 2 for significantly better opponents. The wildcard will be those EVEN games. How do we do in those??

And not for nothing, spread on this game showed me Even on ESPN, but sometimes It defaults to that

What I don't get, though, is how far he's fallen off from last year.

I mean, he wasn't a very good outside shooter last year, either, shooting .315 (41/130).... but that's a ton better than .067 (1/15).
It's not just Corey's three-point shot that's off. If you take the threes out of his stats, he's shooting at about a 35% clip. Last year he shot over 48% inside the arc.

This is why I caution those getting too optimistic about Conference play...its a flawed team that needs to work hard. It works against lesser teams but we are in trouble against good teams if we arent focused..shot selection is quite poor tonight
It had nothing to do with shot selection. We had 16 uncontested 3 pointers and hit 2. We do not have good shooters but have to keep on practicing because you need to continue to take those shots and improve in your success rate. 6 made 3's tonight makes it a over a 20 point win.

Getting no production from our starting two and three. I will still take 7-1, but some players really have to step up soon.

I am starting to think Corey should play the 5 on offense against the zone. I know he is a tougher target to hit in the high post, but he hurts us on the perimeter.
