And if they keep shooting 8% from there, we're going no where...

True. I read quote from Dial in the paper today and they asked him why they don't go inside to him more often and abondon the three. He said something to the sort of "I get my chances inside but were not going to give up on the game that got us this far" (That's not a direct quote don't hold me to it)

I find it questionable that our guys have not picked up a foul inside, Sullinger or Dials, we need to play better, but considering the touch foul (#2) sylvester picked up, it's a little strange that we have not had a single foul inside other than when Lewis got the center turned around on the fast break.

Ugh. And they're not going anywhere either. Teams like this usually play well down the stretch with their seniors, and they all seem to be able to hit free throws too. We need to take it from them...they aren't going to give it to us.

Welcome to the NCAA tourney. 3/4 of the games are this way. You don't get to many complete blowouts.

We need to make some serious adj. at the half. We need to work our offense more. The run and gun is giving them too many chances to rebound and run the floor. Similar to the pathetic showing at the BP basketball games last night.

We continue to play down to our competition.

What a joke, I figured the shooting slump would be over, but it looks like there is no end in sight. There is no rhythm in the offense. It's really quite pathetic.

I would not be surprised to see us lose this game if we continue to play this way. Ugh.

The fairy tale ends. The team has been playing with smoke and mirrors the early part of the year and has been exposed as a team that barely plays with a shred of intelligence on offense. The ride's over.

The first half is about what I expected. Settling for the 3. Lackluster passing. Dials proving himself to be probably the most overrated big 10 MVP in recent memory. You should be able to ride your MVP over a team like Davidson.We may yet win. But only to be embarrassed by Georgetown or Northern Iowa. We'd lose by 25 to Florida.When Oden is here next year, we will be even more impressed that Matta was somehow able to win the big 10 regular season title with such marginal talent.
