We are better off this way, really.

# 1 seeds get upset a lot in the conference.

So we will be a # 7 seed vs. a # 5, (whatever) but it is better than the wear and tear of playing 2 more games then hurrying for a Thursday game in East Jesus, Oregon.

Definitely. No worries.

Our goal is The Sweet 16.

Sweet 16 a hell of a lot harder as a 7 seed than a 5 seed

worst officiated game I've seen all season, but we (and not the refs) still lost that one.

Not sure what Crews is doing with Crawford.

Not sure why we can't beat a zone.

Too many easy looks missed.

Too many stupid turnovers.

Love the guys, but tough to have any confidence going into the tourney.

I struggle to see this team winning a game, let alone multiple games, in the tournament.

Up at half by 10 to St. Bonaventure, lost.

Up at half by 10 to Dayton at home, lost.

Up at half by 4 to Duquesne at home, lost.

Food for thought

On the season:

SLU:

Total fouls: 534

Per game: 17.22

Opponents:

Total fouls: 604

Per game: 19.48

St. Bona:

Total fouls: 633

Per game: 20.42

Opponents: 644

Total fouls: 20.77

Per game:

Today:

SLU fouls: 18

St Bona fouls: 13

The slightly higher number of fouls on SLU can be accounted for by the fact that St. Bona draws more fouls. However, I find it hard to believe that Bona played a game that was over 36% "cleaner" than their season average. Especially given that SLU usually draws fouls on opponents at a rate close to the Bona's average.

The way we are playing and closing out, I hope we can win one game in the tournament.

I didnt think this senior class would go out like this. I was banking on the fact that they had played so many minutes, they needed to get their legs back. In the 2nd half, when we should be wearing them down, we come out with no fire at all. Again, this isnt on JC. These senior are better than this.

Good game SLU. Tough way to end. You guys were all heart. Dwayne stepped out and hit a three when you desperately needed it. That's some senior clutch stuff there.

Tough tough physical game. Wright is an assassin.

Look on the bright side. You guys need some serious rest. Take the week and give em hell in the dance.

We were foes on the court, but in the dance we are conference brothers. I'll pull for you the whole way.

VCU's tourney to lose now, hope we can get UMAss and Bonnie, and get some vengencevengeance for you.

Yes, partisans complain about officiating. No, you can't blame every loss on the officials. But when you miss a call THAT bad (arguably two guys fouled him) ... that ends up being a 3-5 point swing in a tie game ... I think it's fair to point it out.

The energy drop in the 2nd half was just as culpable.
