The problem we are having is teams have adjusted to our drive and dish game so we aren’t getting any easy points.

Against Cincinnati and again tonight we can’t drive to the basket and score. If our perimeter game isn’t stellar, we are stymied. At this time, we are not an offensive threat.

We better come out on fire in the second half. This would be a horrible loss given our loss to Tulane and the upcoming game against Wichita State. That would be 4 losses in a row.

just shooting poorly tonight and a pretty pedestrian 1st half for our guys. Temple coming off an embarrassing loss at UCF looks like they want this game more than our guys, but still a lot of basketball to be played. Need some Moody Magic in the 2nd half

Six-point SMU deficit notwithstanding, a lot of numbers are very even.
Each team has attempted 29 field goals (Temple has made 13, SMU 11)
SMU has attempted 15 three-pointers (making 5), Temple 13 (making 6).
Each team has 19 rebounds.
Each team has attempted four free throws: SMU has made 1, Temple has made 2.
Temple has turned the ball over 4 times, SMU 5 times.
Each team has 1 blocked shot.
Each team has 2 steals.

Need to establish an inside game. Don’t need to always fall in love with the 3 pointer.

The team has not lost to WSU. Wait until we play them first before calling a loss.

I hope Coach Jank recruited to establish an inside game for next year.

What a humiliating effort so far.
After 2 terrible losses in a row, you'd think a team would show up with some guts and fire at home.
Temple has not won since December 16th, a 3 point win over a 300th caliber Drexel team.
Yuck. A loss here would put us on the outside looking in of an at large bid, that's for sure.

I think it's pretty safe to pencil in a L at Wichita State. Highly unlikely this team beats them at their place. We would have to catch fire and rain threes all night

If they play like they have the last 2 1/2 games, it’s a guaranteed loss. Hopefully we pick it up immensely in the second half tonight.

Bad loss - Northern Iowa
Bad loss - Western Kentucky
Bad loss - Tulane
Can't afford another. Committee will shred our resume before getting to our wins.
