Is it just me or is the sportsmania site extremely slow to load?

It's actually al.com that is slow to load. It's slow any way you slice it.

Yep.this year was about getting better and showing a bright future. We can lose out, and that is still accomplished in my book.

This team is like the March weather, its hot, cold and unpredictable. But some here said, they would not be surprise if we lost both, went one and one, or won both..I believed we had gotten over that hump with the gutsy overtime win.
This team is better, but, I know some here gets tired of hearing it, but this is a very young team. This team now needs to win the next 4 games and we are in the DANCE..
Okay even if we lose the next game, we know this team can put three good games together, so as losses goes, I am disappointed but I can see what Coach Hasse is doing, and I haven't always been able to say that.
Next year, heck in our next game and into the tournament, we must have a go to guy...I believe Coach believe that guy is Lee, he is proving to be capable. But the hardest part of the game caught up to the young team and that is playing defense.
I don't know what defense we were in with seconds left on the clock, but regardless the coach cant defend for our young guys, our guys will with experience see those plays coming and be able to respond better.
Lets win the next 4 games and we will be okay.

Spot on. FAU hit at least 2 VERY contested 3's last night. One of them the player was literally falling out of bounds in the corner. Luck can be a b*tch.

Having only 2 blocks really surprised me. I'm chalking that up to Mehinti being rusty.
