We could have

Postby Arkpony » Tue Nov 25, 2014 10:35 pm

We could have beaten them but for the TOs. First half was miserable in that regard (and poor shooting). But we came back from 17 pts down and cut it to 6. Shame we let this get away.

Same story as Indiana. We are digging a hole for ourselves that I fear will haunt us in March.

Yup. 16 turnovers in a first half is a pretty good way to take yourself out of a game.

Hitting free throws would help also

It's hard to believe the free pitches are still a problem this season.

It sure seems like a simple deficiency to correct.

SMU was 70.3% from the FT line and most teams would gladly take that. FT's were not the problem. Turnovers and not having more physical players were more of the problem.

Yes, we were much better on FTs in the second half.

Our first half was just plain [deleted] poor. If anybody wants to offer different opinion, I will just say you're wrong this point.

it was the worst half i have witnessed in the new Moody. Second half was waaay better - but this team we were playing was too athletic for us to get out of the hole we dug.

on the plus side - heard almost no pigs and thought we controlled our home court fan wise. Which is saying a lot since out team gave us almost nothing tonight.

Our bigs that we have now are more finesse than power.

That 70.3 is deceptive. Nic was about the only one shooting FTs in the 2nd half and he rarely misses. In the first half when the lead was built for Arkansas we were in the 50% range.
