Inconsistency is a sign of a young team.
I do think it should be noted that Lofton still wasn't 100% for that SC game, plus they just shot lights out. No one on that team averages above 50% field goal percentage for the season, but they shot well over 60% that night against UT (and nearly if not 60% from 3 point land).
I expect you'll see the UT team that has been playing better, but alot depends on matchups and how our opposition comes out (hot or cold).
