As soon as Kennedy gets the ball in post, he's being doubled. He needs to pass right out of it and swing it around to open man.

Frazier has to be playing with nerves? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense for a shooter with such a reputation to be this off for this long.

Well defense has been stout. UCF is shooting only 28%-kept us in game as usual since we are hitting only 32%

Nic Moore in foul trouble clearly hurts. Head and, to a less degree, Manual are just not that good. And Frazier, I don't know. He's a bit out to lunch.

We need to come out and go on a big run here. If we have any chance whatsoever to make the tourney these are the games we HAVE to win (on the road against teams we are better than - UCF, USF, Rutgers, Temple). HAVE to get Ws there. Guys have to find a way to get motivated and play like their lives dependent on it in those games.

Defense, passing, shot selection and rebounding-even on a bad shooting day that's how you win these types of games. Discipline

At the game (me and my 500 closest friends)... We missed a lot of open 12 footers in the first half.

Nick and Nic with 2 personal fouls-positive none of our big men have more than 1 foul

Are we really that much better than UCF? We have no outside shooting in this game. UCF has at least a few outside shoots and UCF is a good defensive team as well.

Missed the 1st half but the box score is ugly. 10 TOs, Out-rebounded 24-19 and 32% from the floor tells me about all I need to know. Pathetic considering UCF just got beat by Rutgers at the RAC.

Offense should run through Kennedy in the post. Him and Nic need to play a two man game.
