SC didn't get destroyed in their other 2 losses. They were close losses to solid teams. We killed them...big difference there. Only folks that don't know college basketball thump their chest by bringing up the 3-3 record when in fact we were the only team in those 6 games that destroyed them.
We also played a really close game against SMU and had a shot in the first game. We beat UCF. Both those teams destroyed us in the last month.
We regressed sharply in the last third of the season and that's the unfortunate part about this season.
Yea we were really a great team at the time DESTROYING SC and no one else could do that in their other two losses without Thornwell; i I don't know squat about CBB but try to learn from posters like you. Didn't the full SC team lose a bunch of games at the end of the season? Kinda like we did but maybe not by 20-30 points to average competition.
Just one question tho: if we were so great in destroying a F4 team without the guy who averaged OVER 25 ppg in the Tourney so far (I think that means he steps up in big games), what happened to this great team?
Don't get so emotional. It's not fun when someone else throws around the comment about college basketball knowledge, is it? Maybe you can humble yourself and learn a thing or 2 from others about humility.
Anyways, you are missing my point.
We were good enough to be competitive against good teams most of the season but fell apart towards the last 3rd of the season. That last 3rd of the season is baffling. A team which played a really close game against SMU, beats UCF and beats an above average (IMO) team in SC should never regress the way it did. For some reason, the team detached from the coaching staff and the spiral is unfathomable. This team is not bad enough to lose by a combined 70 pts to SMU and UCF.
"Don't get so emotional."
Please tell me how you can read someone's emotions over the internet. I would love to be able to do that. This seems to be the catchphrase for millennials. If i were emotional, which I am not and was not, would that bother you? If so, why?
This seems like a pretty emotional and hysteric response...
Lol. I truly feel sorry for you guys.
