Tulsa at USF

[nevadanatural]

We need to develop a full court pressure defense.

 

[Loca5174]

Thats was a makeup call

 

[Henry Kendall]

Strange with TB

 

[Loca5174]

That’s gonna be the game there

 

[I.I.]

Martin has cost us 7 points in 4 minutes.

 

[TUTim]

Why is Martin still in the game?? Unbelievable

 

[nevadanatural]

Well, we kept it close for most of the game after that horrible start. We had our chances but couldn’t capitalize.

 

[loudmouth]

This one is on Konkol!

Terrible coaching!

Did LAWAL play the 2nd half?

MARTIN should NOT have been in the game under 4 minutes.

Konkol just decided to F it, we need to lose this one! That will show 'em.

Putz.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Bad game to finish for TU, bad game for the refs, TU loses more than likely.

 

[TU83]

first USF is good
we must be road weary
but I will never understand Konkol at times

 

[TUTim]

Playing Martin at the end is unforgivable

 

[Gmoney4WW]

I'd like to see the refs call a good game, and see what happens. That hasn't happened lately.

 

[drboobay]

So upsetting.

I still like my team. An at large should not have come down to one game but there it is. Very sad.

 

[loudmouth]

Cost TU a chance to pull out a win.

 

[Loca5174]

Well at least we played them better today then when we first played them. If we see South Florida again it will probably be in the finals of the tournament

 

[Loca5174]

positive in all this is that we split this road trip and don’t drop both

 

[loudmouth]

Hope so
But... that likely means Tulsa can't lose another game from here on out.

 

[TulsaAM]

USF is better, just like Fresno St. was better... Win the tournament championship and erase all doubt

 

[loudmouth]

That last play epitomizes Riley's game of late.

Not playing Lawal more in the 2nd half was as bad as playing Martin late.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

I would stiil like to see the refs call an even game between us and see who wins in the tourney, if we face them again. We can beat them if that happens

 

['Cane-man]

I guess I'm not the only one wondering wtf Konkol had Martin in down the stretch instead of Behrend. We had a physical mismatch with Nelson. I'd like to hear Konkol's explanation.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

We have to win more games than them to win the league. Not good.

 

[drboobay]

Does 1 or 2 seed matter that much? I don't know.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

They have a tougher schedule than us thank goodness.

 

[loudmouth]

I guess I'm not the only one wondering wtf Konkol had Martin in down the stretch instead of Behrend.

You are not.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Does 1 or 2 seed matter that much? I don't know.

A little bit, but not much. Who we play as the #2 counts.

 

[TUTim]

Does 1 or 2 seed matter that much? I don't know.

I don’t think it matters at all. Guess might depend on who is 3 and 4 and who we match up better with if they advance to semis

 

[I.I.]

Who to bring in to give Behrend a rest? Martin was the right choice there imo.

You don't rest your assist leader (5) and the top +- player on the team to bring in a Freshman against the American's MVP Nelson. We found out what that did. Lots of TV timeouts to rest players.

I thought that Konkol was doing that. Getting Behrend extra rest around the TV timeout. But then he kept sitting...

Maybe a little bit I guess. To me there really isnt that much of a difference between 1 and 2. I cant honestly say that USF is better all around than Tulsa. I do think in the first game they played better than us and in this game they played less bad then us or however that makes sense. All Around I still say we have the best team in the American. We just have to play like it.

We have the following games left. The ones in Bold I believe are our hardest games left. All should be wins though.

UAB
@ Wichita State
Charlotte
UTSA
@ Tulane
@ East Carolina
Temple

This is who USF has left. The ones in Bold are games I think they can lose. They have a tough three game stretch coming up.

@ Wichita State
@ Florida Atlantic
Memphis
@ Rice
Tulane
@ Memphis
Charlotte

Even though we were swept by USF I agree with you that their remaining schedule is harder than ours and that we can get that number 1 seed.

It is also in the realm of possibility Wichita could get into the top 75.
