Cincinnati post game thread

Been talked about a bit, but it's really frustrating how close we've played tough teams for the first half then come out and get blown away in the 2nd half...

Hopefully I have to eat these words tonight. At least it's a step in the right direction from last year(s) where we'd come out looking half asleep then make a furious come back after the game was already beyond a doubt

I wasn't able to watch SMU game but I noticed that Brendan Adams didn't play. He hasn't played tonight, either. At the risk of being labled a Casual, why hasn't be played? Is he sick? Hurt? In doghouse? Is the rotation just getting shorter?
Expand ...

Shorter rotation. Came in labeled a shooter, defender but he's been shooting like garbage. His D is redundant with vital and smith. He's not ready yet.
 
Our starting guards are our best players and it's not even close. Can't put him at the 4 so there's just not a lot to go around with Smith ostensibly has more savvy and physical ability.

Overtime. There were at least three or four times where this team could have folded and they didn't. Down 12 early in the 2nd and could have easily ballooned to 20 or 25 like last year and yet they come back ....about five minutes left and the lead stretches back to 8 and could have easily doubled to close the game and they come back and down 4 with about a minute and end up tying it.. ... So proud of these boys tonight, hope they carry this momenteum. Just getting to overtime, hoping they can win of course but to they are greatly improved, if they cut back on dumb mistakes just imagine!

4 team fouls while we were in double bonus with our star fouled out. That makes sense.
 
Good news. This should have been a "w"....but the ref's were not having it. Cincy is a very physical team and caught a lot of breaks with the calls. Most fun watching a game in quite a while. Either way, team finally moved to another level, and it is not too late. We'll see, but this is most encouraging.

All I could think watching that game was shameful. I really hate to rag on the refs but that was beyond pathetic. I have not seen a game called that one-sided in a long, long time.
 
Do the refs just hate Hurley? I know he must be annoying but still..

We win that game by double digits with even somewhat normal officiating. Yes, we foul a lot but we don’t foul nearly as much as we get called for.
