A few take-aways from Tulane game

[SubbaBub]

Wouldn't say they struggled to beat them as much as put them away. Final score was much closer than it should have been. The final minute should have taken 65 seconds, real time, instead of about 4 minutes, and that is with TUlane giving up with 0:25 left.

That's literally the definition of struggling against a lesser team.

Blowing multiple double digit leads is also struggling.

Close, but not really the definition. Even considering the trouble they had vs USF or when the lead got to four, I didn't think they were in real danger of losing.

Polley had the best game of his life. 11 rebounds compared to his normal 2 or 3 is a huge step forward. And as to Gilbert, he made good decisions and smart plays, that is certainly progress. Your negativity is astounding. Do you ever have anything positive to contribute?

i think Tulane beat Cincinnati which blew us out of the gym!

Struggled to beat a team we should beat easily. Go beat Wichita State.

I don't think we struggled so much. I do worry that we don't yet have the confidence to close out games.

Yea. It was also a travel. Refs missed the call. Gilbert took 4 steps.

So what you're saying is, "7 wrongs make a right," eh?
