Kacey speaks of Pons but she is wanting to say "hi Chuck!"

 

[Dallasbowlin]

I feel better about this team. Jacksonville state isn’t Cincinnati or Memphis, but they showed some things. I think we’ll be Alright.

 

[Caculator]

no doubt we'll play hard and win some but we still need that big man in the paint and another good guard but looks like we'll have to wait till next season for that...until then and as always...

GO BIG ORANGE!

 

[Caculator]

Win #700 in the books. Nice to see all 5 starters in double digits.(Turner’s just happened to be in assists) Good game from Gaines too.

GBO

 

[chipmurphy461]

Meh

 

[ATC_VOL]

Much more assertive on offense in the 2nd half. A win next Saturday and it’s been a decent pre-conference start.

 

[calban]

Meh

Yes it is boring for some when there's nothing to complain about.

Glad we won!

But...

Not sure how to beat good teams with 25% 3-ball shooting?

Maybe by going 24 of 38 from 2........I’m no genius but 63% from two point land and 48% overall can beat a lot of teams......even some good ones.

I would be shocked if our season average becomes 25%...I’m not saying it will be 45%, but I do think they will figure some of that out. Biggest things are that they have to limit turnovers and probably be an elite defensive team, the defense they’ve flashed, limiting turnovers not so much.
