This game reminds me of the Oklahoma Nazarene game last year.  Our heads are not in the game.

[Green Lantern]

Rough start. They’re playing with energy and grit while we’re going through the motions. We need to pick it up.

Halftime

 

Kind of felt like we carried over a bit of the funk from Tuesday's second half into the first part of this game, but now it feels like we have our heads in the game.

Damn who was that tall kid?

Not a good start to the game, but they definitely ended well. This team is definitely better than last year’s team. Can’t wait for the next one.

Mason and Cotton looked good.  If they and Vice gain confidence, the future is also bright if NIL money is here.

I’m glad this didn’t age well. Lol

[Matt from A700]

We played really good the last 30 minutes of the game, but these next two games on the road at Minnesota and McNeese will show how good we really are.

Lol, Atin Wright does not hold back. "We knew this game was gonna be kinda one of the ones we didn't want to play..." "Obviously, Minnesota's probably gonna be much better than the last two teams we played."

 I was pleasantly surprised by our bench.  In fact, I think a few should be getting more than just minor sub minutes.  

Vice, Mason, Cotton, etc looked more than ready for the floor.
