Relax. You're good. We're all pulling for you guys come March. Go win a title and lose the defensiveness when anyone suggests you could've played better.

imagine:
temple is a top 10 team.. known for elite rebounding and defense

you just played a not great houston team-- where you won by 20 without your star player,--- and ridiculously out rebounded team and defended team (what you do every game)...

houston fan: i wasnt that impressed...we missed open shots that why it wasnt that close ...
**heavy eye rolling**

you are the iowa fan here...its not that the elite defense shut you down.. its that you "didnt play good" lol

It's not that we didn't play good, it's that we are a bad team. You're misrepresenting what I'm saying because you overreacted to my initial post.

I'm not saying Temple lost because we didn't play well, I'm saying it was as close as it was because Houston struggled to put their foot on the gas against a bad team.
