The vibe was off the whole game. I think when we had like 3 really bad turnovers at the end of the first half is when I started to think tonight wasn’t our night. We probably had alto play a perfect game to get a win.
Congrats to UAB. They played a really solid game today. It’s not a coincidence that the teams playing in the championship game have the 2 best players in the league on their teams in Lendenborg and Haggerty. Yax was the best player on the floor today and it really showed. UAB had an answer for every UNT push and potential momentum shift. They looked like defending AAC Champions today.
UNT is a good team but not a great team. Hard playing, defensive minded, and gritty. But not the most talented. The reality is that we lost to the NCAA Tournament calibre opponents we faced this year (Memphis, UAB twice, Utah State, High Point, McNeese) competitively, but still lost them.
Last comment: I’m really jealous of the Memphis traveling support. I realize we’re still building and don’t have their historical pedigree/success, but it’s clear we still have a lot of work to do to get up on their level.
They Internet has us projected as a 2 Seed with a possible first game against T C U
We can only wish it will happen. Let them come to the super pit , We will be good hosts only beating them by 15 or 20.
