Two good looks from three.

Just bricking good looks.

what a bunch of cry babies. Did you think we were going to sweep the road games against the top teams in our conference? Cinn lost to us by 20 at our place last year and went to the tourney. Sheez act like you have been there before. This is not surprising with MK still getting in form.

Agreed. Just a shame the AAC is so weak in the minds of the committee (most likely). This Cincy team is no joke. Not top 10 but a quality team. I disagree that they are not that good.

Hard to see the AAC getting more than 2 teams in the NCAA tourney

At the end of the day there are some positives from this game and it definetly means nothing to lose to Cincy at their place as far as the tourney is concerned.

What is frustrating is the pieces are on the roster for this team to be really good. The team lacks leadership and mental toughness which is disgusting and incredibly frustrating to watch.

exactly stallion. These people are not basketball fans. Its fine to be disappointed but have some friggin perspective. We lose to Memphis at home and i will be concerned.

Cinn is a very good team and so is Temple and Uconn. We take any of those on the road and we are fine.

2 good looks, just couldn't hit them.

Team just not tough and focused enough consistently for a full game. Difference between a good team and a top 25 team.

Don't care who it is and where we play them. The complaint should be that these games are sloppy, and we keep losing to less talented teams because we turn the ball over and make countless mistakes. That has to change if we want to even start joking about a tournament bid

Sick of road losses

[RedBlueSMU]

I can handle losing, but this effort today was complete garbage. Stupid turnovers once again and nobody could hit a damn shot. Oh and of course an opponent just jacking up threes and watching them fall in.

[gostangs]

then you shouldn't watch basketball. Most away games vs good teams are losses.

[PonySnob]

Probably can't afford to lose a home conference game

Agree 100%. Just frustrating because we have the CAPABILITY of winning games like this, it's just all mental. Nic loses his mind for about 5 minutes and my vertical is better than MK's right now.

Beat Memphis!!!!!!!!!! Need Moody loud and rocking!!!!

Yep.

To be fair most of the threes were contested. During the second half Cincy gave more effort on offense which lead to good looks and second chance points and we were sloppy, and cold on our offensive end.
