No more complaints about top 25

Just sayin, 12-4, even before the tough games start. No more tears about not being ranked in the top 25.

Yep. No more sagarin, KenPom or whatever. Just hopefully win the home games and hope for the NIT.

No more complaints about the WKU and UNI losses. This is the loss that will keep us out of the Tourney.

Hope for the NIT? What an asinine comment.

The Top 25 comment is 100% true. Top 25 teams don't lose to Tulane...

Let's beat cincy on Sunday and reevaluate.they can be beaten.

I was disappointed with Agau. Didn't expect a veteran to make that pic foul that cost us a possession.

How’s it asinine? Losing to Tulane on the road signifies that one can’t win road games especially ones where we lead by like 10-12 and drop it. It’s WKU all over again. There’s nothing being shown that we have the capability of winning outside of Moody. We are 1-4 outside of Moody. Thank God for the Zona win. Anyways, sure if we somehow upset Cincy, great, perfect rebound but probabilities are strongly against us. Now my comment about hoping for NIT: if you can’t win road games especially against mid-tier or below team, you don’t make the tourney.

Jank got outcoached big time. They kept posting up McMurray and running the offense through there. McMurray wasn't doing much on offense, we kept him out there much longer than we should have.

Agreed, but tough call without Chargois being available. That was definitely our best 5 on the court. If Chargois wasn't sick i'm sure the switch would have been made sooner. Instead McMurray comes out and Akoy comes in and commits an offensive foul with under 2mins to go and his man gets a crucial offensive rebound.. bench options weren't much better. We are a 6 man rotation team again this year. We have more bodies and guys who can give some decent fill in minutes, but only 6 guys you really want on the court in crunch time.

It wasn’t crunch time yet when they made their run, I would have taken Douglas at the 10-5 minute mark. Or go to the zone with ally earlier.

Ben E has a history of disappearing, we better hope he doesn't lose his fragile confidence. McMurray hasn't bought into the unselfish, share the ball philosophy.
