...well, I think it goes without saying...UCA is WINLESS which means our guys better not sleep on this game.
We've been on the wrong end of several streaks this season and losing to UCA would be the top of the list!!

We start out like this next Monday and the game will be over by halftime.

I just don't understand...why, oh why, do teams have their best shooting night against us?!?! I'm watching the free stream from UCA and we're playing defense but their best player is literally having the best night of his career and can't miss...

This is kinda what happened against ACU...we let them get their confidence by not playing defense. No matter how bad the team is when you don't play defense and let them hang around it'll come back to bite you in the end...letting UCA hang around.

We just gave up almost 50 points in one half to an 0-18 team that has been averaging about 65 per game in conference. Unreal.

I'm sorry, but we're not playing "good" defense or UCA wouldn't have 47 points in one half. 37 maybe ... on a good shooting night. Monday night will be UGLY because SFA DOES play defense and if we don't, they'll roll us by 30 points. We have too much talent to show up night after night after night like this.

Awful...I don't understand. I thought maybe the team finally had an understanding that they need to play defense or it doesn't matter how many points you score if the other team scores more.

Demons are rattled...you can't tell me the fact that UCA is winless isn't in our guy's heads. I just don't understand why it's always the Demons.

They're running us out of the gym and it all stems from our lack of defense. If this were an anomaly for the season, that would be one thing. It's not ... it's the same old tired storyline. We're don't play fundamental basketball, we're overconfident, jack up too many threes at the wrong time, get beat on the boards almost every game and we don't play defense well at all. Unless we come back, our season ends tonight. It's over. And I'm out. I've had enough.

Imagine how bad we'd be losing if UCA didn't turn it over so much...of course if that were the case they probably wouldn't be winless.

I'm still following ... I just got aggravated. How talented could we be if we play more sound defense and more fundamentally sound offense? But, I guess that would change who we are ... and in game 21 of the season, not much is going to change. The good news is we have 90 percent of the team back next year with a very solid recruiting class.

We're playing bad defense but they're also having their absolute best shooting night they've had all season. Like their last three...several feet behind the line and the kid is a 34% three point shooter...but he makes it.
I just can't figure out why we are the designated team to have the bad luck...I think it's a combination of not playing good defense and giving the other team confidence because of that. Letting them think they can beat the Celtics from the 80s.

Bad defense breeds confidence for the opponent.
