The way to keep AM out of that press is push after missed shots. We didn’t do that as well as we should have..
teams rarely make it to 70 against them .. I think LSU did..
Even Tenn only scored in the 60s

The first half was well played , the second half was not, and we missed a lot of easy shots at the rim ..

But it’s no excuses have to win that game, lots of basketball left let’s see how we bounce back
That?s obvious that it?s not a high pressure/TO producing press, but there were several times in the second half that we could have scored easy baskets if we would have picked our tempo up breaking it. We allowed their press to dictate the pace instead of forcing them to play transitional defense which in turn generates points and/or fouls.
