OFFICIAL GAME 19: SMU vs. TEMPLE Thread (Snowpocalypse)

[Arkpony]

So unhappy with the loss. But I love this team and will be in Moody watching us whip Memphis!

[sadderbudweiser]

Not even mad. It's like the Louisville game a few years ago. If someone goes unconscious from 3, kinda hard to do anything

This. Never been prouder.

Sure we could have played better. Could have used a better answer for Sterling and Ben sitting together.

Shoulda, coulda, woulda is for losers.

Our guys are winners.

Never been prouder.

[SMUer]

All of this winning and joy is because of LB (of course) and I get that often a defensive strategy picks its own poison, but I'm not into this "live by the sword, due by the sword" philosophy: if they are only doing one thing that is hurting you, you've got to stop that one thing! We need a contingency plan if teams get hot from the arc or we'll continue having teams shooting the game of their lives against us and taking a few loses like this every year. Frankly, the game-plan to beat us has been out for awhile-- shoot +30 from 3-pt and try to hit >40%...it'll happen a few times a season. To me this is the difference between us being good and being elite. Take us there, Larry.

Temple averages in the 20 percentile in 3 point shooting. Today, many were challenged shots that went in. Today was not meant to be a win. Today is why you do not see undefeated teams in basketball every year.

Agree, many challenged shots went in. No reason to put all the blame on 3 point defense.

For my money Ben and Sterling parkd on he bench together for mouch of the first half really hurt us.

[mrydel]

Yep. The foul monster got us today. I thought an injury would be the act that brought us down since we had been avoiding fouls so well but the fouls really hurt.

[Charleston Pony]

and now the goal has to be to go undefeated at Moody this year and to win the regular season AAC title. Hope the guys can bounce back against Memphis next week but that game could start a little losing streak for this team

[sadderbudweiser]

That sounded even dumber the second time.

[skyscraper]

We will come out and beat Memphis. Fired up team + rowdy Moody + tiger tailspin

when was the last time a school stormed the court against us? I have never seen it before.
