Major props to a gutsy PSU team...terrible effort and execution from the Bucks in the second half.

Still fortitudinous

I disagree. Every team has letdowns, but this is twice this season that we've done this. Against MSU, we were up 20 at the half and we won by 2. Against PSU, we were up 21 at the half and we won by 2. Both times, the opponent had the ball as time expired and could have won the game with a three pointer. If Matta doesn't teach the team how to close, we'll be lucky to survive the first weekend of the tournament.

A conference road win is always nice. This team scares the hell out of me though. We could win a National Championship or be the 1st #1 seed to get knocked out in the 1st round in NCAA history. That's just the way this team plays.

I'd hit it!
The veterans need to take control of this team. Come on Bucks, show some leadership.

The Squirrel drinks to make the pain stop.
I know it's frustrating but we are still winning. Look at Florida struggling against Alabama, UCLA lost to WV and Carolina has 3 losses in league. Our only losses are to #1 on the road, #3 on the road and #4 on the road. This team may let games get close but we are winning. Our losses look a lot better than anyone elses in the country exept for maybe Florida. But if Florida losses tonight, it could get close. We are a young team and you couldn't hope for the season to go any better thus far than it has. Stay calm and enjoy the ride. Enjoy watching them impove every game. I'll get off my soap box now. My apologies if it seemed like I was preaching.

it seems that every game tonight is seeing the should-be greatly overmatched team giving the overdog a run for their money.

Pounding out aggression, turns into obsession
Terrible. Absolutely terrible.
1. Matta may be a recruiting genius, but he has a long way to go with his ability to make in-game adjustments.
2. Where's the fucking leadership??? Can I swear on this forum? Fuck it, that was pathetic. I'm pissed.
3. This has to be the most flexible group of young men ever to be assembled, considering they can collectively stick their heads up their asses for extended periods of time.
I'm sorry. I'm typically not very negative, but this is crazy. The MSU home game, the Purdue sleep-walk, and now this? Come on, Bucks!!! Start playing like a #2 team for an entire game. Hell, I'd take a top 25 team for a full 40 minutes at this point.

You're right and it is Matta's job to get this team on the right track during the tournament. I just don't see the coaching happening that adjust to what is going on in the game. This team has major lapses of concentration in most games.
