Nice road win. Great job by Matthews on that steal and he even made a FT. Our guys have got to get better at closing games out and hit their FTs down the stretch.
Also, are we bad at 3 pt defense or have teams just been hot against us?

Refs took care of the-3
college officiating is so bad. But Molinar misses 2, DJ misses 1 and Cam misses 1. Then Devion has a complete lapse leaving a 3 point shooter wide open. And it took all of that for Vandy to cover the spread.Quote:

Yea we definitely didn?t close it out clean. The officiating was still keeping them in the game.
Tolu had a good game. Just wish we could make FT above 70% as a team. You have to be able to do that to achieve any sort of success.
We need to win 2 of the next 3, but 3-0 will be fantastic.
Vegas knows what they?re doing

We can manage the game effectively as long as we can make our free throws.Quote:

We are a good basketball team. To me, we need some solid SEC play, finish Top 4 and get a tournament bye, and make the tournament. If we are to do that, we've got to go 4-2 worst case in these next 6 SEC games.
Finish top 4 in the SEC and CBH should be considered for national coach of the year...Quote:

This is as good as the league has been since the early 2000s. It’s a battle every night. Even the bad teams like Vandy and Ole Miss aren’t terrible.Quote:
