| As bad as we have played we are a pair of Melvin Going fts and a Tobias shot off the back rim from being in the top 10. We are not playing well at all, but everyone acting like the season is over is crazy. |

| Going to be a challenge to get to 20 wins this year. They will have to grow some and develop chemistry to get to 20 wins. |

| | Senior Member | So then what's your explanation from those two games to these last for games in terms of perimeter defense? |

I expect this team to perform at a much higher level in terms of focus and intensity when league play rolls around.
You're looking way too deep into a 2 week stretch of poor play in December. It happens. |

Good effort on D. Pitt? Good effort on D. Missouri State? Eh. The first matchup with Belmont? Well, again they shot in the 20s on 3pt %. I don't remember if that's because they were off like they were tonight or if we actually looked like we gave a damn on D..
