UAB (2/3/25)

I seem to recall in the not do distant past that they beat us in a certain tournament in Frisco, then we finished out season by beating them in a certain tournament in Las Vegas, which led to a few people getting some big ass rings that said "NIT Champion" on them.

Don’t respond to the trolls and they will be quiet, or so that is what I am told. 

We are going to be alright. Hodge is a hell of a coach. Don’t believe me just look at his career record. Walker and Jossell have been sick, it’s the middle of the season, etc.  These days off come at a great time for us. Heal up, get some rest and let’s finish strong. We just didn’t forget to play. 

If we had played great the last two games and lost, I'd be worried, but we played poorly and still had a chance to win both games in the last seconds. For seeding purposes, Saturday is a must win if we want a chance for a top four seed for the tournament.

After processing this loss, I feel like this is still just a bump in the road. The next 2 games are bigger though. You can't go anything less than 2-0 now before getting some rest.

If we go 1-1, I will start being a little concerned. Especially if they go 3 losses in a row.

To add to my own comment, Tulane will probably win their game tomorrow as they are playing UTSA, and now it makes the top 5 spots in the standings VERY close. Not much room for any more errors (losses).

Anyone concerned with single digit assists for an entire game?

So we beat a team near the bottom of their conference standings (4-8) with similar assist numbers? 
My takeaway is that this is a weakness.

We've had many games with single digit assists.

I would file this one under what Hodge described as "playing with fire"

We don't have a guy that can break down defenses from the perimeter.  That probably plays a lot into it?
