Only a little better in the second half, but lucky for you we don't know how to guard the 3 point line. Other than the refs, ruining the flow of the game for both teams, it was a good game and hopefully starts a good rivalry.

How the hell have you guys only won 3 conference games. That was a lot better team than the one we played in Little Rock. Your right about the refs. They killed it for both teams.

We simply don't know how to finish. Every game has been close except when we were blown out at Tennessee State. We then beat them easily at home. I'm not sure if we will figure it out or not. Over the years we have had teams that I just "knew" we would pull out the win if it was close in the last couple of minutes. This season I just "know" we are going to lose. It becomes a bad habit and gets in the players' heads. Even tonight, after killing it at the free throw line all game, we missed 4 in a row in the last minute. At this point, I just want to make the tournament since I know we can beat anyone in the league on a given night. Not saying we can win 4 in a row, but we could make it interesting and crazier things have happened.

So after losing to you guys, 99-98, we come home and lose to SIU-E 84-81 when they hit a 60 foot shot at the buzzer. It's just that kind of year and it's getting kind of late to change our fortunes.
