State vs Tenn game thread

[lamont]

Need a win today

[TheRef]

Agreed. We need to get some momentum going into the SEC Tournament. If we can pull this off, I think everyone will be happier.

[msstate7]

I think we're gonna play well today. I hope that's good enough

[TheRef]

We have to hope and pray that the guys come out fighting. Tennessee isn't going to roll over for us like we did for them last time we played.

[lamont]

Tennessee is looking the way I expected us to look this year. Another loss today will be very disappointing

[msstate7]

Tennessee is looking the way I expected us to look this year. Another loss today will be very disappointing

I agree 100% and you know I hardly ever say that haha

[MarketingBully]

I don't understand why IJ was so important. Lamar was very disappointing to me over these past two games. If he doesn't turn it over at a rapid rate these last two games, we probably win the Alabama game.

[MarketingBully]

Peters had 12 turnovers the past two games. That is just purely unacceptable.

[msstate7]

I don't understand why IJ was so important. Lamar was very disappointing to me over these past two games. If he doesn't turn it over at a rapid rate these last two games, we probably win the Alabama game.
Ready leads the sec in assist to TO ratio. There's no mystery why our TOs have gone up and assists down since ready got hurt

[MarketingBully]

Ready leads the sec in assist to TO ratio. There's no mystery why our TOs have gone up and assists down since ready got hurt

I get that. I just don't understand why Peters turns it over so much.

[msstate7]

It's about time for Holman to have a big game. We need him to step up

[3rdGen]

HERE WE GOOOOOOO!!!

[smootness]

I get that. I just don't understand why Peters turns it over so much.

It's his style of play. It's been pretty clear from day 1 that he goes way too fast and pushes it too much at times. Needs to learn to pick his spots better and let the game come to him more. It'll come.

[lamont]

I get that. I just don't understand why Peters turns it over so much.

because he is a true freshman

[msstate7]

I'm losing all faith in Holman

[smootness]

We foul WAAAAAAAAY too much off the ball offensively. More than any team I've ever seen.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Jesus we get called for moving screens so much.

[smootness]

Just go up strong. The dribbles and pump fakes down low are stupid.

[smootness]

We're just not confident and decisive right now. We pass up good shots for bad ones pretty consistently.

[msstate7]

Another slow start... hey howland, maybe your starting 5 is the wrong combo

[msstate7]

We're garbage

[smootness]

Get beat and just reach out for the foul that doesn't affect the shot.

We're a really dumb team right now. About the best way to sum it up. And we lack any energy.

[lamont]

we arent winning today. They defend the hell out of us and we cant handle it

[maroonmania]

Never seen a team that gets off to such slow starts offensively seemingly every game.

[MarketingBully]

This team right now is Rick Rayisque. Worst coaching job by Ben Howland in his career.

[msstate7]

At some point, this has to be on howland. Tenn is just as young, yet they're playing hard and smart. We play dumb and half- hearted

[MarketingBully]

This is all on Ben Howland. No motivation and Q has regressed.

[RougeDawg]

This team right now is Rick Rayisque. Worst coaching job by Ben Howland in his career.

He can't play for them. They don't look like they even care they are getting their shit pushed in. Pathetic. No effort at all today. Flat footed and asleep.

[MarketingBully]

Holman is not good.

[starkvegasdawg]

No inside game. If we can't make a three we can't score.

[maroonmania]

Yay, we finally score nearly 6 minutes into the game. Geez.

[smootness]

Off ball offensive foul? NO WAY

[msstate7]

Just jack up 3s... we aren't competent at all on offense

[maroonmania]

What an embarrassment. Horrible on BOTH ends of the floor.

[smootness]

We just have lost it. I don't know if we've given up, or if we're thinking too much, or if we've hit a physical wall, or what. No idea why, but we have lost our confidence and energy, and it will be extremely tough to get it back at this point. Dumb and lazy on both ends of the court.

[CadaverDawg]

This is putrid

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

This is pathetic game after game we start the first 10 mins shitty!!! Really hard to watch sometimes..

[maroonmania]

Just jack up 3s... we aren't competent at all on offense

But we make up for it with our defense.**

[smootness]

Off ball offensive foul? NO FREAKIN WAY

[klong-dog]

Stapleton has regressed as well. They beating the dog shit out of us.

[starkvegasdawg]

Will TN at least give us reach around for going in dry like they are?

[maroonmania]

No effort on defense at all.

[Dawg61]

Yay we made a 3!!

[msstate7]

We just have lost it. I don't know if we've given up, or if we're thinking too much, or if we've hit a physical wall, or what. No idea why, but we have lost our confidence and energy, and it will be extremely tough to get it back at this point. Dumb and lazy on both ends of the court.

It starts at the top. We ripped ray unmercifully and it was deserved. Howland isn't coaching any better than ray and has legit talent. He's half the man he used to be in my best STP voice

[maroonmania]

We just cannot shoot at home most of the time. Can't even hit wide open shots.

[starkvegasdawg]

Offensive juggernaut. On pace to score 20 points this game.

[smootness]

It takes a lot for me to get to this point, but I'm turning it off, I'm checking out of this thread, and I'll just be checking post-game scores for a while. If they are this out of it, there's no reason for me to be into it.

[Dawg61]

It starts at the top. We ripped ray unmercifully and it was deserved. Howland isn't coaching any better than ray and has legit talent. He's half the man he used to be in my best STP voice

He's not getting on their asses. I said this shit was a problem a month ago and almost everyone blasted me for it. Howland has to stop being the nice guy all the time.

[MarketingBully]

Howland needs to clean house in the offseason on players that have a shitty attitude and who are a cancer. You can tell some of the players are effecting this shit. He needs to dump them asap.

[msstate7]

I'd have a lot more respect for howland if he'd bench every starter right now till the half. We aren't winning today and it's time to send a message. If they don't like it, send em packing. We obviously have a huge coaching problem or a terrible collection of players

[Cloak]

Just comparing the way tennesee runs their offense shows the difference. They're constantly moving and creating space on the baseline. Our offense is basically "catch and shoot".

[CadaverDawg]

This effort is awful. We don't pressure the ball, yet we cover no passing lanes....we are easily beaten off the dribble, and have no plan on offense. We are going in the wrong direction, and that's concerning.

Maybe we hit a freshman wall? I don't know. Hopefully more talented depth next year will allow us to keep our legs deeper into the year. We look like we have no gas in the tank

[CadaverDawg]

We don't rotate or help on D at all...just wide open shot after wide open shot

[msstate7]

This effort is awful. We don't pressure the ball, yet we cover no passing lanes....we are easily beaten off the dribble, and have no plan on offense. We are going in the wrong direction, and that's concerning.

Maybe we hit a freshman wall? I don't know. Hopefully more talented depth next year will allow us to keep our legs deeper into the year. We look like we have no gas in the tank

Tennessee has just as many freshmen. Difference is Barnes is twice the coach the howland has become

[msstate7]

Out of the TO, Stapleton shoots a 3. Howland isn't a good coach anymore.

[MarketingBully]

So 10 fouls to 4 against a team that fouls at will. If there ever is a game to get a T on calls it's this one:

[maroonmania]

I miss recruiting. Oh well, not too long until the first baseball game.

[MarketingBully]

Stapleton is killing us.

[MarketingBully]

Where is Q's leadership? He is a no show.

[msstate7]

So sick of hearing carter is a good shooter. He isn't making crap this year

[MarketingBully]

Not a single player of ours is playing well at all. That's on Howland. This is his shitshow.

[Red Sox Dawg]

We can't rebound for shit

[MarketingBully]

This stretch of basketball (last six games) rivals anything Ray ever put together. Apologize Howland after this shit show.

[MaroonFlounder]

May not score but 30 puts in this game

[Goldendawg]

These individual players are by no means a "team". Something must be wrong in the locker room. They come out with no fire, no heart, no sense of urgency every game. One pass and someone throws up a three. No desire to play D. This is what you get with with a team of nearly all "AAU" mentality Freshmen with no talented upper classmen to lead. Q is himself a true Soph. They act like thay don't even like each other. You will see about half this class transfer after this "season" if anyone will have them. Howland better get his act together or someone else will be trying to rebuild our joke of a BB program again.

[Doggie_Style]

Howland has lost this team...I can't believe it!

[msstate7]

Any team ray put on the court would beat this team by double digits. These last 2 games is HS level

[DudyDawg]

Don't remember seeing this little effort or intensity during the ray era. This is an embarrassment

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

10 pts LOL this is ridiculous ...

[MarketingBully]

5 fouls on Tennessee this half is laughable.

[Goldendawg]

Did these guys even know what time this game started?

[Red Sox Dawg]

This team has no leader. No one has stepped up.

[Liverpooldawg]

Any team ray put on the court would beat this team by double digits. These last 2 games is HS level

Don't be stupid.

[msstate7]

Q is bad. Just sit him please

[Goldendawg]

Who do we expect to lead? Q is the vet when Ready is hurt and he is a true Soph. We have a group of players one year removed from high school, most of whom would be redshirts under normal circumstances.

[msstate7]

Why is Stapleton still shooting 3s? He's terrible

[Red Sox Dawg]

Stapleton needs to quit shooting

[Goldendawg]

Hey we got him from La Tech, right?

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Our free throw shooting is starting to give me the same feeling as our field goal kicking. I expect us to miss every time.

[Doggie_Style]

Carter sux

[MarketingBully]

Down to 10 point game.

[Red Sox Dawg]

Lead down to 10.

[msstate7]

Carter, I love you, but damn kid, stop shooting so much

[Goldendawg]

Sit Carter down. He is no way ready for SEC ball as a true Freshman.

[MarketingBully]

Who do we expect to lead? Q is the vet when Ready is hurt and he is a true Soph. We have a group of players one year removed from high school, most of whom would be redshirts under normal circumstances.

That statement is so full of shit. Red shirts?

[MarketingBully]

Sit Carter down. He is no way ready for SEC ball as a true Freshman.

You have to play Carter because of IJ Glass.

[msstate7]

Sit Carter down. He is no way ready for SEC ball as a true Freshman.

Spot up shooter right now... he can't keep trying to create his own shot

[Liverpooldawg]

Peters in the locker room.

[Goldendawg]

Carter, Bless his heart ( Baptist lead on any negative remark and makes it ok**), looks like he's about 14 years old.

[msstate7]

Q is such a shitty team mate

[Red Sox Dawg]

That call against Carter is what has ruined the college game. The Tennessee player was bumping Carter and the call was against Carter. Used to be a no call unless it was blatant, and the offensive player initiated the contact.

[Liverpooldawg]

We shot 20% for the half. We are only down 12z. If Peters can come back in we still have a chance. The defense wasn't half bad.

[Goldendawg]

Marketing Dawg, sorry I'm not an BB expert like you, but what I meant is that many on this young team could have used a red shirt year to learn how to play as a team, if we weren't a team mainly made of Freshmen and have little choice but to play them now.

[MarketingBully]

So after being down 17-2 we are only down by 12. If we heat up from three and make them shoot perimeter shots, we can get back in this. But will our players give effort in the second half? Who the heck knows.

[Goldendawg]

I agree. I don't understand why we start so slow.

[MarketingBully]

Marketing Dawg, sorry I'm not an BB expert like you, but what I meant is that many on this young team could have used a red shirt year to learn how to play as a team, if we weren't a team mainly made of Freshmen and have little choice but to play them now.

Carter is the only one I see that could use a redshirt year to get muscle on his 160 lb frame. The others (sans EJ Datcher) would be playing major minutes other places. Heck even Carter could have named any place he wanted to go. We are just an extremely young team and when you took IJ Glass out of the equation we lack leadership. Shit, Q has been the biggest disappointment here IMO because he hasn't led one bit.

[maroonmania]

Marketing Dawg, sorry I'm not an BB expert like you, but what I meant is that many on this young team could have used a red shirt year to learn how to play as a team, if we weren't a team mainly made of Freshmen and have little choice but to play them now.

Guys that are in the Top 150 prospects in BB are not looking to redshirt. About the only FR that probably could have been redshirted is Carter and that is only because he is so physically frail.

[msstate7]

I agree. I don't understand why we start so slow.

At some point, you have to stop starting the same guys that are getting us off to such terrible starts. The way this team has performed lately, I don't see one guy that deserves to be wrote in as a starter with a pen.

[ATTILLA THE DOG]

This stretch of basketball (last six games) rivals anything Ray ever put together. Apologize Howland after this shit show.

good thing we ran stan's off so we can compete for championships********

[MarketingBully]

At some point, you have to stop starting the same guys that are getting us off to such terrible starts. The way this team has performed lately, I don't see one guy that deserves to be wrote in as a starter with a pen.

I can see three guys that won't start next year based on who we have coming in (Peters, Holman, and Herard). We will replace them with aggressive players like Nick, Brooks, and Ado. That is what this team needs bangers and all we have are softies.

[MarketingBully]

good thing we ran stan's off so we can compete for championships********

Lol, I was a Stans fan and I didn't want Rick Ray so you're arguing with the wrong guy here.

[MarketingBully]

Kegler only player having a great game. Q having his worst game this year.

[Goldendawg]

Their Freshmen sure don't play like ours.

[msstate7]

Tenn had a recruiting class in the 40s compared to our top 10 class. They're freshmen are much better. We need to get out of the south recruiting. Those Tennessee freshmen are from North Carolina. Those 3*s up there are better than 4's here

[MarketingBully]

I really don't know what to say.

[msstate7]

I really don't know what to say.

Howland is washed up and our class was extremely overrated. Nothing else to say

[MarketingBully]

Officials really asserting their dominance. You can always be sure of that.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Peters plays with too much emotion. You can tell how the game's going by looking at his demeanor

[MarketingBully]

Howland is washed up and our class was extremely overrated. Nothing else to say

Our class isn't overrated. We just aren't playing well at all and no leadership:

[Liverpooldawg]

Q has yet to score.

[Liverpooldawg]

Howland is washed up and our class was extremely overrated. Nothing else to say

Give it a rest man.

[Goldendawg]

I played in HS, many moons ago and am by know means a coach, but we sure stand around a lot on offense and seem to only trot around the perimeter with one guy standing in the corner on our set "plays". We never get back quickly on D either.

[msstate7]

Give it a rest man.

I guess this is acceptable to you. We look great, huh?

I know I'm melting, but I expect more from a talented team with a "great" coach

[msstate7]

Sit Q

[Liverpooldawg]

25% from the line. 26% from the floor. No points for Q

[Cloak]

Howland is washed up and our class was extremely overrated. Nothing else to say

It sucks watching what's happening right now, but we need to remember that we're right on Howland's career curve. Maybe part of his thing is breaking the players down to where they want to work. We hired Howland because of his proven process. Another year like this one next year, and we can start thinking the way you're posting.

[Liverpooldawg]

I guess this is acceptable to you. We look great, huh?

I know I'm melting, but I expect more from a talented team with a "great" coach

Effort is good. Defense is decent. Shooting is horrible.

[Quaoarsking]

I guess this is acceptable to you. We look great, huh?

I know I'm melting, but I expect more from a talented team with a "great" coach

Rick Ray's 3 teams were 255, 205, and 160 in KenPom ratings.

Ben Howland took over last year and we were 78. Then after losing all those seniors and replacing them with new players, we've only fallen to 103. I know we look bad today, but all the "Howlandz is worse than Ray!!!!1" meltdowns simply aren't backed up by statistics.

[msstate7]

Well Q, we headed down in those rankings you can rest assured. This is as high as we'll be the rest of the year

[msstate7]

Thank you for sitting q

[msstate7]

Q feasts on bad teams and plays like poo vs good teams... Arkansas is the only exception

[msstate7]

Need these FTs, Herard.

[msstate7]

Atta boy, Q... play with some effort on defense

[RocketDawg]

Just got in from golf and fast-forwarded up to real time. Wondered if we were going to score at all in the first half for a while ... and now we're making a game out of it.

[msstate7]

Q, pass the damn ball!

[Goldendawg]

Think Q's wrist is giving him trouble today? He can;t even hit FT's.

[starkvegasdawg]

What are on FT's today?

[RocketDawg]

Peters almost had an air ball on the first free throw. :)

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

I guess this is acceptable to you. We look great, huh?

I know I'm melting, but I expect more from a talented team with a "great" coach

We're young. Everyone capable of rational thought knew we were going to have ups and downs. This current down is worse than everyone was expecting, but we're missing our only upperclassman and our best player is in a slump. If we could figure out how to avoid the slow starts we would really be ok.

Theres defiantly things we could be doing a lot better. Specifically our piss poor free throw shooting. But we'll be fine man

[RocketDawg]

Tennessee's trying to give us the game.

[msstate7]

Lot more heart than I gave this team credit for

[lamont]

what a psychotic game today

[CarolinaDawgs]

Come on boys. keep rebounding and playing D

[Liverpooldawg]

If we were shooting 50% from the line we would have the lead right now.

[chef dixon]

Going to have to hit some 3s to win this one

[RocketDawg]

Some years ago, we came back from 21-0 down to Kentucky and won on a Mario Austin 3-pointer, I think in OT. It was Mario's first 3 in his college career as I recall.

[Goldendawg]

If we could pull this one out, might give us a much needed boost to win ugly.

[msstate7]

what a psychotic game today

I bad mouthed this team so bad that karma required us to make a game of it and me look stupid. I don't wanna be a little stupid though... win this game and make me look like an absolute clown, dawgs

[chef dixon]

I have never seen us as the beneficiary of an elbow before

[RocketDawg]

Can't believe that was a flagrant foul. He barely touched Kegler. Good acting though.

[msstate7]

Win or lose, I'm proud of this team's heart

[Red Sox Dawg]

Tied up.

[CarolinaDawgs]

Like Keglers effort today.

[RocketDawg]

Unbelievable! Up by 4.

[CarolinaDawgs]

LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

[Red Sox Dawg]

Wow. Dawgs lead!

[Goldendawg]

Even if we lose, someone call me out if I ever question the heart of this team again!

[CadaverDawg]

Even if we lose, someone call me out if I ever question the heart of this team again!

I'm with you, brother.

[chef dixon]

Stapleton has been huge

[RocketDawg]

Like Keglers effort today.

Yep. And I'm pretty much a Peters fan. Seems to be a resemblance to Zeke, without the beard.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Huge shot by Stapleton. He's played well today, to some people on here's disappointment.

[Doggie_Style]

Wow. Dawgs lead!

I take back everything I said, HailState!

[msstate7]

I nominate msstate7 as the dumbest poster of the day. He earned it

[bluelightstar]

Win or lose -- these players are going to figure it out, and bright days are ahead.

[Red Sox Dawg]

Have to finish...and make free throws.

[msstate7]

Herard 12 pts 12 reb

Excellent game

[Red Sox Dawg]

Unselfish.

[msstate7]

Dang kegler... shoot it

[RocketDawg]

Not brilliant on that shot clock violation.

[msstate7]

Unselfish.

It really was.. gotta pay attention to clock though

[klong-dog]

Gotta shoot that. Damnit

[msstate7]

Gotta finish q

[Red Sox Dawg]

1:16 left. Gotta build this lead.

[klong-dog]

Story of the day, Q and Pete can't finish!!!!!

[RocketDawg]

We really need to score here.

[RocketDawg]

Good heavens what an ending. Didn't think the ball was ever going in.

[Red Sox Dawg]

Come on Kegler, make these free throws

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Q's wrist has to be bothering him.

[msstate7]

Great comeback, dawgs and howland. I'm an idiot

[chef dixon]

Wow we have made so many bonehead plays here in the last 2 minutes but somehow looking decent

[Boodawg]

We just suck****

[klong-dog]

Gotta hit at least 1

[Goldendawg]

As Jack would say,"Wrap it in Maroon and White"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lamont]

what a psychotic game

[Red Sox Dawg]

Big free throw Kegler

[msstate7]

what a psychotic game

Definitely one of the weirder games I've seen

[Liverpooldawg]

Oh ye of little faith. This team has more guts than most of the people on this board.

[Cloak]

GO DAWGS. Finally some EFFORT to finish a game

[msstate7]

Kansas state beat Baylor. Tennessee beat Kansas state. We should get a nice rpi jump

[Red Sox Dawg]

Dawgs come back to win!

[RocketDawg]

I can't believe we won this game. Looked like they'd never played the game in the first half.

[Boodawg]

Way to go dawgs!!!!

[Commercecomet24]

That was YUGE!

[CadaverDawg]

Wow. Just wow. What a gritty effort. We're still learning, and games like that do a ton for confidence. Great win

[mparkerfd20]

Awesome comeback. Still a horrible job coaching by Howland most of the first half.

[chef dixon]

55 rebounds

[MarketingBully]

What a ****ing game! Woohoo! Love this team's heart in the second half!

[BeardoMSU]

This game is on Howland!!!!111!!**

[msstate7]

55 rebounds

Wow

[Commercecomet24]

Great effort and no quit!

[msstate7]

We really need ready vs auburn

[Red Sox Dawg]

What a great second half effort, definitely something to build on.

[Commercecomet24]

The culture has definitely changed within our basketball program!

[MarketingBully]

Imagine if we played 40'minutes how great we would be?

[Bothrops]

This was sooooooo needed!

[Commercecomet24]

Imagine if we played 40'minutes how great we would be?

We will. This inconsistency is just because we are so young, talented but young. Excited about the future!

[msstate7]

Stapleton and Herard both with a double double

[State82]

That was one hell of a basketball game.

[MarketingBully]

Coach Howland is a great coach. We need to figure out why we start out so slow. Maybe we can figure out how we played our first two road games at LSU and at Arkansas. We didn't start out slow in those games. We should build off of this and beat Auburn then at home against a good South Carolina team.

[Percho]

I have decided. I suck as a fan. Even slept through part of that game.

What a great, hang in there, win by a great group of guys.

[Dawgology]

I'm going to have to stop watching the games. I've missed every win but 3 and watched every loss. I turned this one off shortly after the beginning of the half when we went back down by 15 or so. I'm a jinx I guess.

[Percho]

Oh ye of little faith. This team has more guts than most of the people on this board.

AMEN!

[maroonmania]

I can't believe we won this game. Looked like they'd never played the game in the first half.

I can't either, I had totally given up. We shot 31% from the field and less than 50% from the free throw line and still somehow won. We start off every game like crap but we certainly turned it on late in the 2nd half. Congrats Dogs!

[EngDawg]

We are a 4th quarter team

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

This inconsistency is just because we are so young, talented but young.

This needs to be in big letters at the top of every game thread. It's hard to remember during a game. We have one upperclassman and he's injured right now, on top of that Q is in the worst funk of his career.

[CadaverDawg]

Y'all don't put Howland back on the hot seat when we lose on the road at Auburn. Tough to win on the road.

[smootness]

Well that didn't last long haha. I forced myself to watch the 2nd half, and wow. Biggest win in YEARS. Ready out, Peters and Q shoot 4-26, we miss 16 FTs...and win it after being 19 down.

How about Mario Kegler's intensity down the stretch? He, Stapleton, and Herard won that game for us, and Q came up big when we needed it. Wow. Wow wow wow. PLEASE let this spur us forward.

[chef dixon]

Q is playing with 1 and a half hands. His finishing is going to continue to be inconsistent

[Cowboydawg]

what a psychotic game

Almost as psychotic as some of our fans. Reading this thread start to finish is pretty entertaining. Excellent win. We play like a team with a bunch of talented freshmen...

[Cloak]

How about Mario Kegler's intensity down the stretch? He, Stapleton, and Herard won that game for us, and Q came up big when we needed it. Wow. Wow wow wow. PLEASE let this spur us forward.

Fantastic to see that intensity. I haven't seen him like that all year

[MarketingBully]

Y'all don't put Howland back on the hot seat when we lose on the road at Auburn. Tough to win on the road.

Oh yeah, I understand. The first half we just looked so blah but I think it had a lot to do with no leaders emerging to pick up the team. Stapleton, Kegler, and Herard deserve all the credit in the world because they looked like they were always trying out there. Kegler was the only starter IMO that played a great game the whole game through. We need leaders to emerge and we need to get confidence that even if Q has a bad game we can still win. We proved it today. This is the first win where Q and Peters didn't lead us in points. Big step forward IMO.

[Dawgology]

So is Q still learning how to play through the pain of his injury? There is a night and day difference between him before and after the injury.

[MarketingBully]

Kegler is an NBA player once he starts playing consistently. Peters is an NBA player once he starts playing consistently at the point. Nick will be an NBA player. Herard and Ado could possibly work their way into an NBA roster in a few years. This team and next year's team are loaded with talent albeit extremely young talent.

[MarketingBully]

Oh ye of little faith. This team has more guts than most of the people on this board.

Oh yeah me included. I just wish we would play with effort for forty minutes. Hopefully a win like this will build confidence and we can finish strong down the stretch. I want us to hit 9-9 in the conference. If we can get to that point, everything else is golden.

Awesome comeback. Still a horrible job coaching by Howland most of the first half.

LOL......

This reminded me of that Vandy game last year in which we were down by 17. I am sure that thread is hilarious as well with stupid comments by me to boot. Yes, I was wrong. We just need to play with effort for 40 minutes and let chips fall where they may. We will get better. As a poster said earlier, we are a young team and consistency will come with age.
