But no reason to be mad at anyone. We have a good coach and the players are doing the best they can. I can't think of a thing that Pastner could have done to help us more, and I can't think of any way that our players can be better than what they are.

When everyone plays well we are a top 15 team; when nobody plays well, we suck, and when half the guys play well we are a borderline top 25-30 team. If we put it all together we can be a Sweet 16 team, and if we don't we will flame out in the first round. Might as well enjoy it the best we can and hope for the best.

Solid post. I give Pastner this year and next to win an NCAA game, then he's gone.

The best way get over a loss like this coupled with an end to an excellent winning streak is to simply start another one.

I'm good enough. I'm smart enough. And doggone it, people like me!

Yes..

The game @ UCF is probably the game of the year now.

Amen! The trials and tribulations of being a basketball fan!

I've been addicted since 1978. And nothing will keep me away, no matter how mad I get at them!

I'm not trying to be a miserable but damn.... Could he not of pressed more? When he did it created turnovers and wore them out.

Press for 40 mins and we win.

this isn't college football where this type of loss kills your season....

We will still get our day in court, and I like our chances

im not mad at all about the loss. i had a feeling the spotlight would be too much for our guys, i just feel bad for them. they showed they really wanted it in the 2nd half, minus the free throw shooting.

Count me in. I am addicted too. Gonna be nice one day when Memphis wins the Championship on the shoulders of integrity and character.

That one hurt guys....but I still love our players and pastner. I had to take a break before I posted. It's not the end of the world or our season. We will beat the living **** out of UCF and all will be good.

If you guys had been around during Moe Iba's days, you would be thankful for this team. That was brutal. Not even Tic Price's teams were that miserable. Be thankful and glad that we are pretty good. We laid an egg tonight...and a big one, at that. Just stay the course and win the next six. The rest is out of our hands. Stammers nailed it on the level of the team.

February 26, 2013 has been a ***** afternoon and evening, period. I'm going over everyone's head and throwing my anger at the basketball gods. To them I say **** *****, and ****** a tu m***e. Other than that, I'm okay.

We missed too many shots to press.

I've been reading Kant all night. I'm more depressed than mad.


What will the faces of your loved ones look like when they first find out about your death?

Missed free throws and dunks did not help.

Not mad, just sad and upset. When are we ever going to break thru in a big game??
