    Foul trouble in both games... sounds like we better learn to win without them

    On the road, I agree. At home, it’s a different story. Averaging 19 fouls on the road vs 11 at Home.

    This is why I hate college basketball. The officials give such a huge home court advantage that's is damn ridiculous. Destroys the game.

    That was what did us in. It will be tough for them to stay out of it on the road. I think they both had two offensive fouls. That would be helped if we would run some semblance of a half court offense.

    We were actually going inside early against Florida and it was working. Ado even had 12/10. If Holman hadn’t fouled out in 16 minutes of playing time last night at least the game would have been competitive. We can do very similar things with Auburn as well and IMO it will be more effective because we will be at home. One of the bigger positives from last night was we were 5-7 from the freethrow line. We desperately need to improve those numbers and when we get wide open shots on the road we have to make them.
