When do Bowls start to matter?  Because even with the NIT only something like a third of teams play in the postseason in basketball...versus well over 50% in football.

there are also too many bowl games

I agree....but you'd have to cut down ten or so just to get to the level of basketball postseason WITH the CBI.  If you want to get down to the level of the NCAA tournament it'd be several more than that.

21-0 free throw differential in Favor of ODU is a bit sketchy... I understand playing small ball puts you at a high risk of fouling, but 21-0??? That’s a bit ridiculous!

I believe the NIT should be 64 teams and the CIT and CBI should go away. For college football I would say around 20-24 bowl games would suffice.

If Smart isn't hitting 3s he is a liability.

Biggest game of the year to date...And taking a dump vs a trucking company. 

This. Is. Why. Attendance. Is. Not. Seeing. The. Increase. Some. Of. You. Want.

when you don't drive to the basket, you have no chance to get rewarded.

Wait, I thought people didn’t pay attention to games that aren’t aganst “names”?   

Doesn’t make logical sense then that a ROAD game against a “trucking company” would sway opinions...either they’re paying attention or they aren’t.

Or could be you’re just pure bluster...as usual Ben

Awful. Live by the 3 ball, die by the 3 ball. Also, if the real Rose could make an appearance, that would be great. 

[Big Z]

Weak first half schedule have made us look overrated.....

The only saving grace is that the rest of our schedule is theoretically manageable, but you never know with this team. Hot and cold on any given night

[TIgreen01]

That was a butt kicking.

[Salsa_Verde]

Sigh...a long way to go.

Well up next is the worst team in the conference, so we better play that hard UNT ball....we need to stop wetting the bed, get out of these pampers and put back on our big boy pants.

This season has shown us that this team will play down to the level of our competition then have to squeek out a close one in the end. I'm not optimistic

Probably the nail in the coffin for any NIT hopes. Got to have a great February going into the USA tourney for a lot of reasons.

So we can't win conference?

[UNTLifer]

Did I read the stats correctly?  We a were 1-2 from the line for the entire game?

Sure. We can still win the NCAA tourney too.😂

Yep. Didn't see it, but definitely something wrong there.
